Haha....... no worries Rob, I wasn't insulted, sure I've been called worse things
The reason for the S30Z prices going so high is partially on the coat tails of the Porsche silly price explosion over the last couple of years.
If you can't have a 911 what's the next best thing (for some people, others more discerning already know that an S30 is the better car)
Porsche prices are falling, S30Zs will follow too but I think it will be a mild correction, nothing too drastic - well hopefully not.
As Jason said, with cheap money no longer available people won't be borrowing to buy classic cars the same way they were previously and throw in the mortgage rate hikes, cost of living crisis and it all points to a fall in values. People with cash in the bank previously thought with interest on their money at 0.5% (if they were lucky) that they may as well buy a classic car instead and have a bit of fun whilst retaining value and if lucky and choosing the right model (Ford, Porsche, Z etc) even making a bit of money too. With banks now paying 5% interest it makes that decision harder and plenty of people especially the less committed classic car fans will take the easier option.
