[DeTomaso] Will Pantera prices follow Mangusta prices?

[Pantdino]

I think about this sometimes too.
 
I think Panteras will always have some value because they are fast, sound great, and look great.
 
Personally I don't think the same can be said for many of the high-buck cars selling these days-- Porsche 356 and early 911, Austin Healey, most Alfas, MGs, etc.   No matter how cute or swoopy a car is the next generation is just not going to care about cars with 100 hp.

   Along this line of thought, who thinks prices will stay high 20 years
   from now. There will need to be demand, but where will that demand
   come from? I suspect most of the people buying cars now saw them
   when they were younger,will that be true in 20 years?
   People ask me all the time what my car is worth and I honestly have
   no idea. It is a rather ordinary mid year 71 that looks good and I hope
   represents the name well. As much as mine isn't for sale, if someone
   offered me $50K would I say no? As I sit here I would rather have the
   car than the money, but in my heart there is a number I would sell
   (well
   less than a bajillion dollars).
   One last thought, I was going through some old slides last night andA
   found a pic of a Pantera I took at Riverside International Raceway in
   1973. I was nine at the A time, apparently my future had already been
   determined - I just didn't know it yet.
