    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Yes..... the smart collectors were the ones selling in 2007......

    It has always amazed me how a 351 GTHO 4dr Falcon can be worth 4 to 5 times the value of one of these.....

    The market has definitely fallen away but I wouldn't put too much notice into what a car dealer says. All they want is to sell cars.

    When prices are high they say you better get in before they go up and when prices drop they tell you you better get in while they are so cheap.

    That is a good article though. I reckon its better these days cos we're more likely to see people actually driving and enjoying them. Better that than locked away.

    Damn i bought my torana in 2007. Only paid 3000 but that makes it worth about 1200 now.... ha. Oh well no excuse not to drive it then!
