If I remember correctly it was a bit cheaper in its time of release and not many people wanted one?


It was cheaper and I can imagine most Morgan buyers (of a new Morgan) would be looking for some kind of wind in the hair/cap/beard experience and would have opted for that choice given one. Production was not limited and so the numbers speak for themselves. Roll forward a few years and as is often the case, the less desired then becomes desirable now and the supply is limited. I would think Coupe will, in time, regularly surpass Supersport values based on the AeroMax halo effect and supply and demand. That said, the near identical appearance of Supersport and Coupe mean a prospective buyer would never feel they made the wrong decision buying either (though some may be clear they want the top to come off, others may be they don't want the hassle of a creaky leaky roof) and thus values of both my track evenly. There was a time AeroMax values were not that much more than the Coupe or Supersport whereas now asking price is much higher. I actually prefer the rear end of the Coupe and made my choice (and it had to be the Coupe). Bottom line it will always be supply and demand led but the pool of available cars at any one time is very shallow.
