If all owners would stick to a set minimum and not sell a car for 30K we would all do better. If the minimum price to purchase a car is 60K then that is the price to play.

The owners need to stop shooting themselves in the foot by accepting low offers.

Of course there will always be the rust bucket for less. I am referring to an average car in average condition.

Pantera owners are the worst for talking down other owners cars, and nit-picking them to death, that sold for a high number and saying it wasn't worth it. We should applaud high sale prices and support them.
In Baseball & the possible merging of large corporations, that's referred to as "Collusion" & was also attempted ( cornering the market) by the Hunt Brothers who wrongly thought they could corner the silver commodities market.

I have sighted NUMEROUS examples of the general public casting dispersions at various cars, the most recent example being the Ford GT which languished UNSOLD on dealer's showrooms, a rhetorical question would be..."Has that affected the Ford GT & it's astronomical appreciation?!"

The resounding answer being a resounding...NO!!!

I always thought a Jackson Pollock painting was comparable to a misguided kindergartner's attempt at painting, patently obvious that "others" disagree...As evidenced by the 140 MILLION sales price!!!...Mark

So be that the maddening collective crowd may gather, sharpened pitchforks & torches ablaze ready to burn the witch( car) at the awaiting stake, yet their efforts are in essence fruitless for their voices of discontent are merely lost in the howling wind of reality...Mark
