The only issue with that logic is that such enthusiasts tend of 'over value' their cars. As such, the cost of such a car is typically above 'fair market value.'

But then again, we enthusiasts tend to spend over and above what we should on our toys. Case in point: paying $5500.00 for a new head on a car that's worth about $8000.00 max.
