For years not much was thought of them as they were only race cars after all.
Then slowly but surely they became popular again as people realised what they were and desired one...but many had been changed/slaughtered or destroyed.
So up went the prices and up and up and up went the prices.
I owned 2 over that time frame one cost me $70kUS in 2001 and sold for $165US in 2004 and then next one cost me $275kUS in 2007 and at the height of our recent financial troubles still sold for $295kUS
Sure its has taken 37 years but the price of a very good RS Carrera is now 15 times its original cost a bad one is still 7 - 10 times the original price.
Just wait and see. I firmly believe this car will turn out to be similar down the track...maybe it doesn't have the race record the RS cars did at the time nor will the rate of growth be as great ....but I still think in time prices will escalate to well above original price.
