What's Up with Classic Car Prices These Days?

Reason dictates, and I demand, that in uncertain times used car prices must fall. They don't. They''re staying firm or they're actually rising, and what's worse people are paying them.

For the past 12 months now I have been scouring the market for a variety of vehicles: 928, 944, Ghibli II, Beta HPE. The overpriced turds haven't moved, but the good ones have lately been flying out the door. What gives?

I'm not sure I'm buying the compensation argument. A very comfortable family vacation will set you back 5k. A fine 928 is triple or quadruple that. Ditto a Ghibli II, if you can even find one.

Big investors? Money laundering? Plz.

I'm not talking about how prices for Countachs are doing. I'm talking about stuff below 30k. Nobody "invests" in these things.
