I found the car in Marco Island, FL in 2007 and it was not for sale but the security guard for the building knew the owner and called him. He came down and I was prepared to go right to the bank and get him $10k (my hard #). He was willing to sell it but his # was $12k. Like an idiot, I walked away. Near as I can tell, that car, in the same shape, is $150-160k. If it had a black interior, I don’t know what I would have done.

Same thing happened to hemi muscle cars in the 70s and 80s. Thousand bucks or less would’ve bought you a good example of a 4 speed hemi cuda. And unlike the ferraris which were thoroughbred race cars with double digit production numbers, the old muscle cars were just regular mass produced road cars with big engines, and that reflected on how they were treated. People cut them up, painted flames on them, parked them in the grass outdoors. At the time they were just another used car. Now that same car is rolling across the auction block for millions. Just goes to show that whether it’s a car or a baseball card, you should always find out what it is you have before throwing it away or selling it.

I wrote my masters dissertation on classic cars. They do outperform the S&P 500 for example but if you factor in maintenance costs, insurance, storage, etc. their only value as an investment is their negative correlation with more conventional assets. With that being said, that negative correlation disappears as soon as a a shock event takes place which means that they drop in value during recession (duh).

Several car collector friends have given me the same advice about buying cars. Don't buy purely to try to make a profit or as an "investment". Buy what YOU like. If you get lucky and the car appreciates, good for you. If it doesn't, well, you had a lot of fun driving around in a car you're passionate about. They all DRIVE their cars too! Taking their EB110, TdF, GT40, or Miura to go get the groceries, or to run an errand. Any excuse to drive them.

My neighbor bought a KISS t-shirt in 1987 for $5 and now uses it to wash his mom’s 1993 Buick LeSabre in her driveway.

That's why I bought my FJ Cruiser. I knew that it would go up in value and now they are getting to that starting point where clean original examples are fetching what they sold for new (depending on certain factors). In time these will be going up in value and may even command ridiculous money. Anybody that doubts this should just look at what Blazers, Broncos and Wagoneers are going for. All these vehicles were WAY undervalued 10 years ago and everyone wants a clean one now. It's the generational cycle of disposeable income. When you get some money you buy what you wanted as a kid. Plain and simple.

But at the time the Miura was better looking car then the 250GTO even for this day standards looks gorgeous, they didn't know the what the value will be 30-40years after.

A Briton, David Piper, had owned at least one of these cars back in the day, he said he sold his last car, because his wife didn't like it. Nowadays, he's saying he should've held on to it. The only difference between the featured story and David Piper's is, Piper kept his other cars, and his "other" cars were, 2 Ferrari 250LMs (the replacement of the GTO), Ferrari sports racing prototypes P2 and P3/4, Porsche 917, to name some. The P3/4 he owns is unique since it is built after the production of the car has ended, Ferrari had provided him with a chassis for it!

I lived in London a couple of years from 1990-93. In one car shop there was a Jaguar XJ220 for sale, and the price was around 120.000 pound, which was less than half of it's value from the factory - and nobody wanted it. That car today is worth around 500.000 pound, which is not a huge increase, but I believe it will raise to astronimical value in the next 20 years...
