I would near guarantee most of the gt's bought 20+ years ago and still owned by the then buyers today were not bought with a view to making a lot of money they were bought because the owner loved and wanted the car. The fact that they are worth more now is a happy co incidence and I would even bet most of these type of owners the value is irrelevant as the cars will not be for sale. I would love any of those now cheap GT's in that mag back then though it was still a lot of money for an old car.

History says todays performance cars will be sought by the next generation either too young or too broke to buy one now and some on here in 20 years will be saying if only I had kept that GTP or Cobra or R33 or WRX we all know holdens wont be collectable j/k.

The next generation will want what their dad had or what they couldn't have but saw others with when they were growing up (you know the fully sic cars race pedigree isn't that important) the trick is knowing what that will be if you want to cash inn.
