I think you will find that the clean, unmolested (besides exhaust and wheels) low mileage, twins are more common than the ones that have been trashed. Even on this forum they are the majority.

Every already knows how the stock market works. No one said storing a car was a good investment. The vast majority of these cars are modded turds and an original one is already very very very hard to find. As these cars get cheaper, even more clown will ruin the survivors. 20 years from now, they will be unicorns. |

Original low km cars are everywhere here.
In the end they are cheap sports cars, I cannot see them being the next collector car. It's not like in 20 years time the people who wanted one when they were young can afford them, hell, they can afford them now. Plus they don't build them like they use to, these cars are not made to last use, abuse, next

I see maybe a dozen or so of them during the passing of a week, and rarely are they modified, at least externally. Are they modified more than your average runabout? Probably. I doubt that more than 15 or 20% of them are modified to the level you are describing though.

People did say that storing the car was a good idea that was what started the whole conversation on the subject. Yes as they get older pure low mileage ones will be harder to find. That is how it works. There will also be fewer people looking for them so it balances out. It is a low demand car now and that isn't going to change 20 years from now.
