Could not agree more, especially the last sentence. I can afford to buy what I am looking for (a 70's/80's Targa), the problem is that I have owned a lot of early 911 models and they don't pencil out for me as a value proposition.
Same for a lot of other vintage rides: I have owned two 356, 60's VW bus, a 70's 2002, a 80's 560, we had Alphas and Jags when I was a kid, etc. I am not paying $15k for a 4 speed 2002. Not going to happen.
Maybe when they get back to Cumulonimbus altitude
