But the market will be flooded with all kinds of performance collector cars, and it wasn't near that way back in the 90's-early '00s. So regular stuff may stall in the teens.
Yup. Guys buy new ones today hoping they appreciate. My neighbor swore the 2003 Mach I he bought would jump in value. Nope. He sold it at a loss. Just look at all the low mileage 78 pace cars out there. Too many.

If I have money for only a few cars, I am more likely to spend my cash on a well built vehicle that can do everything better than a stocker as opposed to an all original, low mile car. I like all original cars but owning one doesn't interest me.
