[DeTomaso] Documentation of Panteras increased value

Dear AllI'm under 40 (1975 kid) and have a pantera. I have also been tinkling with classics for many years. 
A factory MGB GT V8 proceeded the Pantera and I still have  a series 1 MX5 [miata to most of you] and a Mexico bug to keep me busy along with the Pantera.
Coming from the UK, there was always a larger group of 'youngsters' getting involved in classics as particular cars [and tools] are more accessible and cheaper. Since being here in Italy, the classics are always grandpa's hobby as sometimes getting parts is cost prohibitive as generally the monthly pay cheque is less.Vespas and Lambrettas are big here only because they are a cheap way into classics. Smaller cars such as the early Fiat 500's have now fallen right of the scales with high prices being paid, and most projects now being shipped out of Italy with dealers buying 10-20 at a time. The De Tomaso Mini has also gained some ground in the last year, so if you want a pocket rocket to drive down the middle of your gigantic US shopping malls - do it now.
Ciao for now Al # 1925
p.s. Lego Technics and Top Trumps has alot to answer for. How similar is the Lego Technic Test Car model 8865 released in 1988 to a Pantera - uncanny!!!p.p.s BMW M1 - is this really just a German Pantera?p.p.p.s OK - its morning here, so time to go and clean all my teeth [fillings free], which quite handily all still remain in my head

I'm under 40 and own a Pantera. There are people in my neighborhood that are surprised when I tell them what I have though. Most car guys that are my age like the Pantera.
 
I went to high school thinking the glory days of horsepower were over; 300 hp was a LOT to me. I had a 5.0 Mustang and loved it. I had big dreams for the car but it wasn't the time.

   At Amelia Island a few weeks ago, I noticed that most of the Cords,
   Horst, Stutz and older top of the line cars were owned by the 45-60
   set, the dune buggies and muscle cars were owned by really much older
   men, I think the difference is becoming those who bought what they
   loved and those who buy and enjoy as an investment as much as for
   driving.

I agree.  But I think the people who own their Pantera's now
   (today)
      will alway
s drive them!
I know I go through withdrawal if I go too long without firing up
   and
      driving my
Pantera.
Our cars will live on, but I think the next generations++ might
   not
drive
      them a
s much.  In 2035 it
would be fun to look down and see a Pantera blowing away electric
      cars
on
      the hi
ghway. ;-)
Of course availability of gas might be a problem.  <heh heh>

Subject: [DeTomaso] Documentation of Panteras increased value
I've been with Hagerty since I got my Pantera fourteen years ago.
Originally I had my Pantera on an agreed upon value policy of
      $35,000,
last year I bumped it up to $60,000.  I've never had to make a
   claim
so I guess so far I am happy with them.  If values keep going up I
will
      probably
look at bumping it up in the next year or two.
As someone who will probably never sell I am torn about the raise
   in
values.  While I think it is great that the Pantera is finally
   given
some recognition for being the great car we all know it is, I
   don't
want it to become worth so much that it starts to make people not
      want to drive them.
Personally even if my Pantera is worth $50-70K it is still a
   viable
risk
      to
take for the same nice weekend drives that I usually take it on...
   If
it were to drastically go up to say $150K then I might start to
question the sanity of driving it amongst a sea of Pickups, SUVs
   and
Minivans where the drivers may or may not be busy texting or
   yelling
at the kids in back to see my tiny little Italian hot rod.

   A factory MGB GT V8 proceeded the Pantera and I still have  a series 1

   Subject: Re: [DeTomaso] Documentation of Panteras increased
   value
I agree.  But I think the people who own their Pantera's now
   (today)
      will alway
s drive them!
I know I go through withdrawal if I go too long without firing up
   and
      driving my
Pantera.
Our cars will live on, but I think the next generations++ might
   not
drive
      them a
s much.  In 2035 it
would be fun to look down and see a Pantera blowing away electric
      cars
on
      the hi
ghway. ;-)
Of course availability of gas might be a problem.  <heh heh>

Subject: [DeTomaso] Documentation of Panteras increased value
I've been with Hagerty since I got my Pantera fourteen years ago.
Originally I had my Pantera on an agreed upon value policy of
      $35,000,
last year I bumped it up to $60,000.  I've never had to make a
   claim
so I guess so far I am happy with them.  If values keep going up I
will
      probably
look at bumping it up in the next year or two.
As someone who will probably never sell I am torn about the raise
   in
values.  While I think it is great that the Pantera is finally
   given
some recognition for being the great car we all know it is, I
   don't
want it to become worth so much that it starts to make people not
      want to drive them.
Personally even if my Pantera is worth $50-70K it is still a
   viable
risk
      to
take for the same nice weekend drives that I usually take it on...
   If
it were to drastically go up to say $150K then I might start to
question the sanity of driving it amongst a sea of Pickups, SUVs
   and
Minivans where the drivers may or may not be busy texting or
   yelling
at the kids in back to see my tiny little Italian hot rod.
