The issue here isn't about how much the vehicle costs or is worth, the issue is that this person has to opportunity do possess a beautiful item that came in limited numbers and she is treating like a beater. As far as price goes, time will tell. Go to any friday night car cruise and think about the fact that in the '70's you could pick up an old mustang for a few hundred bucks and in the 80's an old school nova would be given to you practically. What would you give for a cherry one of those now?!?
