First gen 911's are going to continue to climb...along with later low production variations...but barring market corrections the trend is price appreciation.

A corresponding market is the S&W N frame pinned and recessed models (the dash 2's) that were discontinued in 1982...for years they kind of languished as there was no shortage of them floating around...now even though they are still fairly easy to come by the prices have appreciated and are continuing to increase. They have been gone long enough with the earlier 4 and 5 screws getting increasingly pricey that they followed suit. Another one is the Winchester 94/22 now discontinued they have gone from under 500 to over a 1000 for a NIB. It is now being appreciated as something special that it is no longer being made.

Prices will fluctuate up and down a bit but the trend is higher and not lower. Look what happened to vintage Ferraris in the 90-'s, prices came crashing down....and now they are way beyond the peak set in 90.
