All C4's on BAT (which averages prices higher than other auctions and private party sales)

There will certainly be an uptick, but it isn't going to be an explosion. Imagine trying to get parts and service for one of these in Europe...


Funny Thing about averages.
So, where do they show the cars that are "not average", you know, like the 1700 mile one.

I never report my sales to anybody, and it is quite certainly the same for most specialty classic dealers, so NADA is clueless, and therefore of little value when you are looking at "new" or non-average ones.

Prices for these cars remain all over the map.
But if there are folks selling properly maintained new ones, they certainly will not be selling them for $39,000.00.

Like I said, "average" is a funny word.
Then again, I don't often sell any "average" cars here, so perhaps that explains why "my-average" does indeed trump THE average and explains my "bias".

Still very pleased to see that 90 do so well on BJ, but it was a very nice low mile car, and good to see 90's getting the respect and the money that they deserve.
A very good sign indeed.

Outliers don't remain that way forever.
