Dealers are the ones doing their best to inflate the market with ridiculous prices. The privates all see it and catch on.
Despite higher prices, with the exception of the odd bunny, no one would be getting what they're asking. |

Supply v demand. It's a living beast and no one controls it.

Yeah, I would like to see what they are actually selling for privately to compared to the asking price. People are asking stupid money for old trucks at the moment.

Dealers have been doing that since time began,they dont need to get what there asking it just means they have room to give Jo public closer to the inflated price they think there trades worth and still come out ok.

Begs the question, why go to all that expense and then sell it? Surely you'd realise you weren't going to use it much before you tipped the best part of $200k into it!

Im finding it has softened a little bit...just wait until all these owners start finding out how much HSV/FPV parts will cost to source...not because they are particularly good but because its getting harder to find good stuff.
Hopefully repro companies get on board and start getting into the 90's, 00's.

Spending that much money why wouldn’t you start with a Silverado or something?

I'm tempted to sell my Caprice given what's going on with values on local stuff with 8 cylinders and maybe get into JDM.
Post gearbox replacement of course it's worth scrap value at the moment with only two gears working |

Sold my 2010 XR6T manual ego for 24k the other week, had it advertised for 26k with new tires required sitting on 100,000kms.
I'm happy.

I like to watch what is going through the auctions and what they end up going for, and while the classics and rare stuff is still silly (should say sillier than usual), the 'regular' stuff in the last few weeks seems to be softening a little bit. Still going for more than what they were pre-Covid, but not much more and no where near as much as similar was going for over last 10 months.
I think auctions are the better gauge rather than looking at advertised values, as with auctions you get to see what the market is actually willing to pay (even if it does not reach reserve). |

Add your auction tax, people putting in bids for mates, who even knows the auction is on etc and its far from real. Would be good if there was a way to track actual sale prices like with property, most results are BS.

I feel people will get burnt while prices are inflated. Many are taking money out of super to buy these cars, or borrowing against newly found capital on their houses due to the property boom. Special 'numbered' models will always be in high demand. The average HSVs, FPVs / XRs, SSs are what's inflated IMO, unless it's super low km (near new). I don't think these cars will move much at all for many years now, even perhaps down a little. People need to consider what it actually costs to hold / store / maintain a car too. |

I know a bloke who paid 65k for one of those vf2 directors. He thinks it will be an earner. Won’t hear about storage costs and insurance and maintenance. It still has delivery kms. At the end of the day it’s an auto bf Calais. Will be worth not much more than any other Calais in time I also believe any of the Modern Australian special cars need to be manual to hold their value in time |
