Guy offered to throw in a mullet wig for 100 extra.

Just saw this over on michigan fbody, but dang! Shows these cars can be worth a shiny penny and will be investments in the near future. Who ever bought that will double or even triple there money within the next few decades (We all know that car wasn't bought to be driven lol).

Not trying to cause a fight here, but here are the number for 1LE's based off TGO:

1988 - 4
1989 - 111
1990 - 66
1991 - 478
1992 - 705

The later years are less desirable because obviously more of them were made. That car that sold is a real gem, especially with only 123 miles on it.

The vast majority of third gens got used, abused, trashed etc. It's nice to see one in original condition.

 

[EXTRM87]

Its unnatural I tell you! Who buys a car like that & doesn't drive it :lol:

You will start seeing this more going forward on cars from that era. First, the cars are just harder to come by now, naturally. Another major factor is the Gen Y/X crowds are now at a point in their life where they are raking in the cash, while the boomer generation is retiring and beginning to live on a fixed income.

Us Gen Y/Xer types grew up with SVO mustangs, Typhoons, Grand Nationals, Irocs and GLH-S anything from Chrysler. Now most of us are at a point in our lives where have the coin to buy whatever we want. I really doubt you'll see old GTOs or Mustangs appreciate at the same rate like they have historically. I guess I'll wait another 10 yrs and then list my Iroc.

 

[TTA]

ok?

A LB9 with a Hardtop? still not impressed.
That's all...

Buy 2 of them...drive one, ziplock the other.. I mean someone like Leno probably has brand new cars that he's never touched. Why drive an iroc when you have 37 vettes...ala Lingenfelter... you could call it an investment but it ends up needing a restoration from sitting anyways.. kind of a crapshoot, a wash maybe?

Most of us ust see them as childhood supercars when in reality it's the poor mans vette or the college punks toy.. hahaha
