Have prices doubled in the last 2 years?

Maybe since 2012 they have -- but that is 4 years.

Personally, I think parking a car like that for 5+ years is a dubious decision.

Whatever you gain in appreciation -- assuming it even appreciates -- is going to be eroded by inflation, and the costs entailed in long-term storage and subsequent re-awakening out of cold storage. Parked cars don't age gracefully.

Then there is the opportunity cost of parking $30-40k.

If it isn't an heirloom, or a possession of significant emotional value, I'd recommend selling it over parking it for 5 years.
