[QUOTE="1995COBRA-R, post: 15694855, member: 9515"] I think you are saying that you find a $1.2M 65R as well as a $400K+ 1965 GT350 (in poor condition) to be a good investment? I think that we agree on most everything else (lots of fakes in the market), but I think they are in bubble territory. The asset class of these cars can sink (i.e., the Hemi cars), or a general black swan event can happen (the entire market will suffer). I may be just bored with them. I've owned and/or raced about 12 of them. I still remember the wrench size for the removal of most parts. I know a guy that owned and parted out over sixty 1969/1970 Mustangs. [He would buy three junk cars, build one good car, and sell the extra parts]. I'll get back to you on the auctions. I DVR'd much of Mecum Monterrey auction which I watched 20% of it (zooming over the old lead sleds and used exotics). It was not good for some cars. I'll study the upcoming Sports Car Market Monterrey issue to help get a current opinion. I think the Federal Reserve interest rate policy has inflated many asset classes. Many guys have said to me that they are not interested in staying in low-interest CD's or short-term T-bonds since collector cars go up 14% per year. I am more cautious than you are. ;) BTW, I did store my 95R in a safe place with hurricane winds threatening my neighborhood. Yet, I wonder how many non-authentic collector cars will be destroyed in the hurricane? [/QUOTE]
