late 60s/ early 70s muscle and late 90s import rwds are the most sought after cars for restoration and performance. They were cheap relative to the periods market! A mint condition pure skyline with low miles is worth more than it was new. Not like a that or a supra was 90,000$ from factory. Pretty sure a split window stingray was a couple grand in their time. The dang brz messes up the whole idea haha. If it was only a toyota product i think the scion would be a novelty down the road. Alls i know is in 20 years if i see an frs with 50,000 km untouched in mint shape ill probably want to drive it really bad. I just think scion ending and the car getting a facelift may make the used frs worth more than a used brz in 5-10 years. I dont think they will ever get to the level of 6 figure restorations but i could see the scion, as i said, being sort of a novelty in years to come.
