I recently consulted an exotic car store owner who is also a friend of mine about a new purchase...he told me to buy up all the early model (small bumper) Panteras I could as they would bring a nice return on investment.
Since I am not "in the business" and already have the Pantera I want, I did not take his advise and instead purchased a Ford GT (from another Pantera owner). :-)
Hey Tom! Hope you're loving the GT still. There's a very wide empty space in my garage now! Perhaps I can put two chrome bumper Panteras in there!
Panteras do seem to finally getting some value bumps, long after the Mangusta rocketed ahead. I'm seeing more $60k+ Panteras out there, with a few well north of that. (Fantasy Junction has one for about double, super low mile original.)
Europe seems to pay more for a few other cars than US, notably Pantera, Ferrari BBs, and E types (which I just purchased.) Interesting to watch.
