You "Crazy Cajun", where have you been?
Hey Doc,
It’s been a real busy year and I let 2011 get the best of me. Between landing a new gig and even more touring, working on the Honey-do list(s) when I’m home and spending as much time as I can with my wife, 2011 was a blur. I picked up a “Barn fresh” 1951 Ford Woody Wagon outside of Denver to build into a pro street toy now and that’s taking up what little space I have left.
I’ve been thinking about selling the crossfire for some time now but never pulled the trigger. I’m no-longer driving it and it just sits in the garage under its cover, I put less than 200 miles on it last year.
Not sure what I’ll do with it except replace the rear tires (again) for the fifth time.

Cheers~

Sort of. It was mostly due to Fast and the Furious driving up demand for Supras to a ridiculous level and instantly adding $10,000 to the value. Many owners held onto the cars until they reached the equilibrium price which was somewhere in the low-$30k range. As the market began to flood and the popularity of the movie waned the price came down to about $20k or so.

The SRT6 doesn't have anything backing demand other than it's a rare car. All colluding would do is cause more people to scratch the SRT6 off as an option and buy a M3, Z4M, or even the SLK32. Now if it ever went back into production, got a lot of media face time, or rare oddball production cars ever become very popular then we'd have something.

EDIT: I should add that the car may be rare enough to entice a value increase by people who collect SRT vehicles, but it likely wouldn't be more than a few thousand, but that all depends. Watch Carmax prices if you want a good indicator if the SRT6 would be investment worthy. They're most likely to squeeze every dime of profit they can from the car.

In a moment of insanity last summer (my winter ride needed replacing - so I thought I might sell both and switch over to an SRT8 Jeep) I advertised my SRT6 for $23K. Got some bites, but another guy in Ontario advertised his SRT6 For $19K, and sold it for a little less. Then mine was the only one in the area, but 2 to 3 weeks of the spring selling season had been wasted. I dropped my price a bit more, and started to get some action under $20K, but for that price, I said screw it - and went shopping for a new winter beater.

You can't replace an SRT6 with anything comparable for $25K. One day, more people will wake up, and stop dumping their cars for $12-15K, then those who want one will need to pay over $20K for a good coupe.
