Sure the used car market can be unpredictable sometimes but it's not really shocking that expensive, low production Japanese cars like the Evolution, STi, Turbo Supra, RX7, Integra type R, and NSX are still desirable decades later.
Then again a TT 3000gt doesn't really have the same kind of 'rice tax' compared to it's rivals.

If we are going to compare the relatively high production basic consumer sports coupes to something appropriate then let's see the cars that seem to be totally ignored so far.
How about anything in the mid level DSM lineup? Are they commanding big bucks now no matter how pristine they are?
How are those late 80s and early 90s Celica's holding up in price?
Is there anybody paying $30K+ for an 80s Nissan 300ZX?
Most of these cars had the same production numbers in one year that the S2000 and many of the others being compared had in their whole run.
Hoping the Twins are going to climb to great heights in value are as likely as that poor guy holding onto his perfectly preserved 1994 Eclipse and saying "someday I will be rich".
