You're sort of proving his point. Those
models were built in large numbers. The ones that bring big money are the special editions that added power, which were not built in large numbers. In the context of car value, a six cylinder Mustang built as a sporty commuter for secretaries (which is the way Lee Iacocca envisioned it) hasn't been a winner as an investment vehicle, whereas a Shelby GT500 will command an insane price. In a less extreme example, a base model '60s Camaro isn't exactly a retirement fund, whereas a real SS can bring big money.
