" That is a cool car" does not equate to a future purchase.

The existing cars will be grandfathered for use, but there will be additional regulation, increased cost and lack of demand that will lead to a much smaller market with only a few manufacturers...

Making predictions is risky business, especially if they are about the future.

I never in my wildest dreams would have imagined that a Yenko Camaro or a Boss or a Hemi Cuda would sell for $300,000.

You can count me as another one who never saw the appreciating prices of past muscle cars coming...as I sold my Boss 429 for less than $2,500 in 1975...and I was the original owner too!!
