Avanti Values?

Well, it's good for me, no doubt, since I own one ... but for those involved?

  “Those involved” certainly could be spending their $$$$ on worse things!!

I've said my peace.. There needs be a semblance of sanity in spending.

I think any Avanti that is improved on or brought back to life is good for the whole Avanti community, regardless of the reason for doing it.  Mike

Agreed/  Nicely put.

Good for You and I am truly happy things work like that for You.

It hasn't gone like that for us.

I've had 67 vehicles... Only 1 bought new (first car) and I ran it into the ground for 12 years and 250k miles. I figure I got my money out of that car .  The rest were to get around but always in my mind has been to sell later for more or use it up until it gets hauled off on a hook. Since I've been blessed mechanically It was possible to do this...

Everyones situation and abilities vary.

As you said, everyone's situation is different.  In my whole life, I've only owned 20 vehicles -- and I still own half of them.  I buy vehicles (in any condition) that I want, restore/repair/improve them -- and then keep them forever.  In that circumstance, vehicle values are simply irrelevant.
