Also, might want to look into the AR 'pistol'. Doesn't require the SBR stamp and you can't affix a traditional RE with collapsible or fixed stock, but you can use a pistol buffer tube with something like the SIG brace and it doesn't count as a stock per the ATF tech branch: sigsauer.com/SigStore/sb15-pistol-stabilizing-brace-552.aspx |

I suppose at some point all cars bottom out and even trend up, but in most cases what you are talking about at that point is a 30 or 40 year old car that has some value as a collectible. Once a car reaches the point where it is not depreciating (which means its value keeps up with inflation and stays flat or is appreciating in value) it is (to me at least) no longer a car but a museum piece. A personal example, I would love to own a daily driveable MK1 MR2 again, and have seen several low mileage excellent examples come on the market in the past few years for what I would consider a reasonable price. I can't bring myself to buy it though because I know I would drive it like it was intended to be driven, and that just seems nearly wasteful at this point. I guess at some point I'll have to do restomod on one just to satisfy my itch while at the same time not destroying something that should be preserved.

Or, people will decide that there are too many 911 museum pieces and their value won't increase.

You might be surprised if you looked. Not many 911s are museum pieces.

Yeah, guy above paying $1500/month to own a brand new sports car and a townhouse, meanwhile my rent, utilities, and food costs more than that, toss in a car payment, some student debt and it's real easy to get in over your head out here. |
