My neighbor sold his 87 vert for 24 grand. But he was also the only owner, and it had 11k miles on the original engine, had been baby'd and garage kept it's whole life, and consistently well maintained. he'd also start it up warm it up and blast it around occasionally to keep it in shape.. it was a beauty.

well if it had 11k on an orginal engine, I could see why. But these ones are no where near that low.

people are insane... you can get FD's for like 7-8 grand usually in somewhat decent shape... and like 11-12 grand in good shape(stock ofcourse) why would FC's go so high?

Because people held their car for over 10 years and somehow made themself believe they have the only fc around.

You don't want your car to appreciate in value? If that is what the market is - if these prople can actually sell their cars for that amount - I think that's great.
