Default Re: Collectibility in the numbers

Although I would agree that it is hard to determine the value of a car before 20+ years, if any trends in collector car trading have shown us, ANYTHING will be valuable if it is a real production car with very limited build numbers. Cars like the Bricklin, Bitter, Delorean, or Merkur will probably never be collectibles because although they were build in limited numbers, they weren't good vehicles to begin with. Contrast that with vehicles like the Buick GNX, Third Generation RX7s, and last model Toyota Supras and even VW Phaeton which were all produced in limited numbers due to one reason or another. They were cars that people wanted but were just priced either out of reach (GNX) or just too high for their core Audience (Phaeton, Supra, RX7).
