The bubble may pop but the prices for the air cooled cars will always creep upward and the numbers become fewer and fewer each year due to accidents and such.
I bought my SC ten years ago for what was considered a high price but it was a totally original car including the paint, chain tensioners and lack of pop-off valve. It was never a daily driver and lived as a garage queen and penial extension for the first two owners, it still remains a garage queen but I hammer the crap out of it when she comes out. I have seen three times the amount of money I paid for her land on her hood and that isn't enough to buy her.
a 30K SC, sure I can see it, the price on mine is 40K, but she really isn't for sale and I want the price five years from now if she were to go.
I should mention I did not buy my car as an investment, I bought her because I always wanted one and I had the cash, so I bought. It was just dumb luck and good timing on my part that I will never lose money on her short of some catastrophe.
