Uhm............ NO. I'm starting to question your credibility here. How about this: lots of parts for our cars are no longer available, ESPECIALLY the interior panels. Besides the fact that these parts were outrageously priced to begin with. Ever lookup the cost of the individual parts of a seat? Its insane. Parts like the dash or door panels have been discontinued forever now.

While I think our cars will carry a value (and go up) with time, I dont think they will ever command the value of cars like the JZA80 Supra, FD RX7... and Z32-TT.
The problem with the 240SX is that in stock form, its a heap. And most of the cars you want to purchase, should be in stock form (ie: unmolested).
I think the only cars that will carry value will be the ones built by the renowned enthusiasts in this community who have documented their builds and put endless amounts of time and money into them.
