I would not put it that way (though mine stays). Some folks just did not sign up for the current situation, that's all, and it's fair enough...
If you bought such a car at 15K/25K, whatever, and it's now worth as much as a small house in some states, you start wondering... It may not be the game you signed for. You went from owning something not too rare worth relative peanuts to something pretty rare & worth a lot, and you don't care for both things the same way. You can think about it and decide to ignore it, but that's a personal call. Some folks are worriers and might be happier with something cheaper...
The way things are, it's very hard to to keep up with insurance valuations - say something happens: you will either recover your car w/ diminished value, or have to buy another one which may cost you more, or not be as nice as yours was. Even if you did get full value, you may decide $60-80-120-200K - whatever- is money that's better used elsewhere...
Every time I take my car to the shop, the guys tell me people dropped by and asked if it was For Sale. Sometimes they do in person too... It's annoying and sometimes worrisome. If I owned a $200K early S, I would definitely think long and hard (and probably build up a 912 with a 2.0 6 instead).
