I forsee the future .
Even Mr and Mrs Neek's car on the front page of the new magazine has probably raised the value of our E21's by a few points (Thanks!).
And they are classics, and approaching classics.
However - that CL ad is abit far fetched (maybe meant to say 8000 dimes)...
Lets keep these beauties clean!

RE: that VW bus....he doesn't HAVE to sell it. He put it out there for that price, which is what he wants to let it go for. If you REALLY want it, you'll have to pay that.

"Price tag shows family tradition. I'm the third generation owner. No DEQ or Smog(CA) for this baby. Economic times are having me think about selling this machine."

No where did he say this is the market value, it is just what THIS one is worth to him.

Amen, brother!
I fully expect our cars to climb in value as did the early 911's and 912's.
Well maybe not as much, but it won't happen unless people start entering them in concourse shows and such in pristine condition.
Forgotten? Not hardly!

Ha! I have an idea:
1) Buy more E21s.
2) everybody here - list our E21s on CL for about 5-10 times their existing value.
That could bring up the E21 value another few more points too.
I'm a friggin genious sometimes.
Hmmm.... Robert
