It's what we saw with all original muscle cars 5 years ago. IMHO, the early cars are in a bubble. I would love one, just not at that over inflated price.
I don't agree 100%with this. Muscle cars only really appeal to Americans and to be honest more the new money types who suffered in the recession. Its a different story with early 911's where there is increasing global interest and an established old money global collector base with many presteige driving events to use the cars in. So my feeling is no bubble for longhoods.

Having said that if you aren't building a collection and need a sometimes day to day driver a GT3 at the same price makes way more sense. However just be prepared to loose money on the GT3 and gain on the 911E.
