This car has 3000 miles and is very minty. $39K buy it now. You would make more by just leaving the 25K in the bank, and not have to pay for storage.

I don't buy into the whole "pay for storage" thing. Fact is I'm going to have a sports car in the garage at all times anyway so the amount of extra money I would spend to store an "investment car" is exactly zero. I guess if you're Jay Leno or something, things are different but I look at the appreciated value of a rare car more as an extra perk that comes with my hobby than anything else.
