Reply to "GT5-S prices"

markcharltonOld enough to know better and still young enough not to care. My '71 Pantera

I'll add my opinion to the pile since I too been following GT5-S (hell, ALL DT) sales and prices very closely over the last several years.

I think that there are a number of people promoting very high prices for GT5-S cars. Many of these promoters are sellers as well, and I have to wonder if they are wishing the market up. Yes, they do sell for more than a GT5 and much more than a regular Pantera, but if there are North American sales anywhere close to the $200K range, they are well hidden. The market for all collector cars has risen steeply in the last year but I can't find many opinion pieces that think this trend will continue for much longer before we hear a loud POP.

As much as I love De Tomaso cars (and I do own four), the rest of the world (especially the rich crowd) loves Lamborghinis more, and a Countach will almost always out-sell a Pantera. It is NOT (IMHO) ONLY about numbers, but design, rarity, heritage and lust.
