pretty sure he was talking about little nick... lol Merrone or whatever. because he got kicked out of school for a year or some nonsense. Saw it in the networking section under his "Need a job" request.

course, i'm not basing this off of any honda knowledge... i know with muscle cars its like that. though, i would never expect to get 30+k for my gt 20 years from now unless i kept it in immaculate condition and low low low miles... even then... 18-20k MAYBE

maybe, it would have to be a limited edition of some sort though, really.

like the 100th aniv ones, or if they make some other sort of limited special package soon. Not the GT/CS though, that should get drop in price faster IMO and burn.

We are talking 20+ years old cars and the only reason they are worth anything is there weren't 1/2 as many cars produced back then. But even then, the cost of cars = what is costs today when you add inflation in so it really isn't worht anything :-)

yeah, i don't expect it to be worth much of anything.

but who knows what happens in 20-30 years and how they hold up in general.

but honestly.... you gotta be crazy to think i'll have this car for that long. i'm certain i'll be trading it in with 3-4 years on a new one w/ a larger motor or a gt500... well, depending on what exactly i end up doing with this one mod wise

+1 Sorry Mr. Oakes for the confusion.

angdefeo · 10-30-2009, 01:18 PM

tying up $20,000 for 20 years in hopes of selling a car for the original amount paid for it does not make financial sense. im just saying.

Roto · 10-30-2009, 01:19 PM

Modding cars also makes no financial sense...

Elliott18t · 10-30-2009, 01:19 PM

espcially if your gonna only get little to none, profit.

Foolinaround · 10-30-2009, 01:22 PM
