Mike - I was talking about the rarer models - the cars being bought sight unseen were 911 S models from the early 79s - pre 73 mostly. Alongside their RS And ST brethren these are sought after classics and I would wager many are owned and not driven now.

However these price increases (RS at over 500k?) means that the regular cars have seen their prices driven up artificially as a result.

I'm sure when the stock market looks like a sure bet and interest rates at the bank or government bonds look like better investments then a lot of non enthusiasts will drop out of the classic market. At that point I think the market will correct.

As for the Aeromax - it has a market and it is rare. Given that fact I think it will hold its original list price or gain quietly for a long time to come. I doubt it will double in value overnight. I hope they do gain significantly though - I will have one again in time, and a car that is appreciating is likely to be kept in good order kept original and be usable.

I've owned 4 Aeros over time, and overall I list practically nothing on buying and selling. They are very solid bets from a depreciation perspective...
