[V8] V8 Prices (Current and Future)

[Buchholz, Steven]

... as odd as it seems for me to say this, I think the '91 200Q20V has better recognition and overall will have a better chance for appreciation than the V8s.  Perhaps the 5-speeds will fall into a similar state, but I don't see increased demand for the automatic V8s ... at least not the 3.6-equipped models.  If you're lucky and can find a fan when you are trying to sell you may be able to get a bit more ... who knows ...

One thing that we've mentioned on the urq list is that the existence of forums like this one can help resale values over the very long term ...
