Something to think about. If the supercars become simply showcars, spending the majority of their time in climate controled "vaults", then will their popularity continue? I think not. IMO, the reason rare musclecars are so popular today is the the WOW factor, which comes from the excitment of driving them. Nothing else comes close.

Supercars didn't achieve the Label by sitting on showroom floors... they got them by racing and blistering the tires, if you can't afford to drive the car then you can't afford to own it. IMHO

Sounds good. However, most of the guys who have them can
afford them, but they still don't race or drive them.

Russ,

I wasn't really taking a shot on my part. I have had
numerous discussions with Corvette owners over the years
and I think it's safe to say many of them don't see the
perceived value of the day 2 cars. That's all.

They just consider them dealer modified.

I can't wait till the day that "people loose interest" in muscle cars. I actually believe this could happen to a certain extent. In 20-30 years I wonder if people will care if a car is #'s matching or if has the correct style broach marks, or if the widget spring is the correct color. I think future generations will be more interested in the look or the general "attitude" of a bad ass American Muscle Car. All I know is I will be lined up waiting to get another supercar if the values go down!

I drove my Deuce EVERYWHERE and ANYWHERE in Chicago. I had fun with it and did not worry about what it was worth. I parked it in any parking lot, drove it in all forms of city traffic, and beat the piss out of it without worry. I terrorized the streets of Chicago and the 1320 of Gateway International with that car even though I knew the car was worth $150,000 and loved every minute of it!

For now all I have is the memories of the actual experience of being a supercar owner. I will NEVER forget blasting down the track at Gateway International with my Yenko Deuce as long as I live. For those brief few minutes in my life I did not care about the values, risks, or politics surrounding supercar ownership. All that mattered was banging them gears as hard as I could, just short of breaking the stick to make sure I won! Being handed the time slip with your new best time was all worth it. THAT is what it should be all about.
