69 Z28 RS JL8 Crossram car listed at BJ auction

I keep hearing where the "bubble is about to bust" for the rare supercars. Hum... If this were the case, why are we not seeing more supercars changing hands? If the market is headed downward, why were there not more supercars rolling across the stage at B/J? There are a lot of very successful business folks who hang out here and I have not seen them rushing to thin their collections of supercars. In fact, I am seeing quite the opposite, which tells me they feel the rare supercars are still a wise investment. That is good enough for me.

which of the current muscle cars, if any, will reach collector status in the future?

That's a very good question,one i'm sure nobody had the answer for thirty years ago either.I looked around at what I thought embodied a true collectible current muscle car and decided on an Intimidator SS.How many times does GM commision it's most famous driver to build his own signature car for sale exclusively at his dealership? It is one of a handful of cars he signed before his departure,has thirty five miles on it,and will be sitting on a lift in my garage for a long time.

I remember reading about Reggie scarfing up COPO's for 5k in fields and barns during the mid seventies..seems like we all had at least one get away,i'm older and more disciplined now..

This one could have covered lots of Phil's Atty's fees:

Martyn Schorr answered a question on 1/05 in Musclecar Enthusiast Magazine---"......Even though todays cars are better,safer and even faster,they don't have the soul and the legend and the history that the old musclecars had.I don't care how crude they might have been, with carburetion and distributors and everything else, they were real.if you're old enough to remember that time period, that's your roots and you should cherish that.--" Many car collectors/car enthusiasts have passions along these same lines -----So barring some unforseen catastrophy,---The bubble is pumped up and flying high for years to come--IMHO

Then again I could be wrong...........

Just wait till 20 years from now when the hot car at auction is a Honda that was featured in a Tuner magazine way back in 2005. It'll be bid to $300,000 by a former Limp Bizkit fan who's backward hat covers his bald head.
