It is dominated by open cars. The coupes sell more easily and often with little or no advertising.
Too funny. I have passed on a dozen or more cars lately that I would have not hesitated on in years past based on current market, including a no reserve Silver, numbers matching 75 Carrera 'COUPE' that sold for under $12K a few months back...on ebay.

Reality is this market is in a major transformation, as is many others. Not a challenge, just a simple observation of a very real reality.
