Unfortunately, you're starting your quest about 2 years too late. I think $50K bought you a hell of a car (Yenko, Motion, etc.)back then. The market's "up" now, and until it comes down again, you're in for slim pickings. I think if you do some shopping and aren't too impulsive, you should still be able to get a real good COPO 427 Camaro. Do your homework and make sure you find a "real" car. I applaud your enthusiasm, but nothing kills enthusiasm worse than a bad $50K purchase.

VIPERRICH,
Did you become flexible on the numbers matching situation? If so there are some drivers available in your budget.
Also ,Deuces are Super Cars as well and $50,000.00 should get a very good one ?

Is Charley's '80 Motion still available? That would certainly fit the bill in that price range. As long as you don't wrap it around a tree. It's a little 'avante garde' for the supercar set being that it's a later model year but I think that it's conversation-piece appeal would more than offset that.

There are a number of COPO's around for under $50K. They are not restored, but still very nice drivers. Do your homework and if in doubt, have a pro assist you in checking it out. Good luck.

copo can you point me anywhere?

Yes my 80 Motion is still available. I guess it's waiting for the younger Generation to come into their money. Geez,it's even a Phase 3.

Tom406,
What makes you think the Yenko/COPO market will trend downward?

Fluctuations/adjustments nonwithstanding, the prices of these cars has been relatively flat, prior to a couple of years ago.

I think the market is cyclical, and will adjust itself. The numbers we're seeing are approaching or exceeding the heady days of '89-91. Whether the economy falls or soars, the net effect will be less money to blow on cars (due to money loss or use in more traditional investments).

Mostly, its just my own gut feeling that things are "overvalued" again. In the year or so I've been frequenting this site, values have jumped something like 50% on many of the Supercars and Hemi cars. That's not a steady trend, that's excitement and hype. I don't think it will last indefinately. But I have no idea when it will peak. If I did I'd be out buying more cars, not typing on this website....

I certainly don't think the market will fall out. As long as there are baby boomers with money, these cars will have value. And on the Supercar market, the gradual education of the public is certainly helping solidify the values. Doesn't everyone remember the resounding THUD in the COPO market in the early to mid 90's, after every knowledgable Camaro guy had already had one, and the rest of the market didn't really know what they were?
