Were the early Aeros exported to the USA?
If so when did sales stop?
I'm curious to know as, I understand, once a car is 25 years old it is classified as a classic and it can be imported and used relatively easily. If so then from 2025 demand for Aeros will increase and prices should firm up...... Only 10 years to wait!
Yes - all true.
So we stopped getting the Aero 8's in 2007(I believe...) and to be fair there weren't huge numbers brought in even then. We got 33 Aero Super Sports and 11 Max's(I doubt there are more than 20-40 Aero 8's Stateside as well). The new Aero 8 isn't going to be coming Stateside except(I reckon) maybe one for the auto shows later in the year should Morgan make a display at Pebble or similar.
It's a real shame, but I suspect you're right. There will likely be a large market opened up with the ability to import from across the pond. My only real qualm with the whole deal is the lack of use some of these Aero's get, and subsequently what little depreciation they take on! (which is great for the owners, but terrible for prospective buyers) It is unusual to see an Aero with more than 5-10K miles of any age(going back to early S1's brought over). They are simply niche enough automobiles that even the owners that have them don't drive them. There are two 2010 Super Sports at MogWest that have under 2,500miles and are listed for roughly what you could buy a new one for today!
