Rising Value of Classic Japanese Cars

[jumpman2334]

Anyone else on here been following the steady rise in cost of classic Japanese cars recently? Say, the last 5 to 10 years?


Jalopnik posted an article yesterday referencing Black Book's findings of costs for classic Japanese Cars (they track used car values). Here is the list:

• Honda 1964-70 S600/S800 Coupe $30,000, Roadster $35,000
• Honda 1973-78 Civic $15,000
• Honda 1976-78 Accord $5,500
• Mazda 1979-85 RX-7 $12,500
• Datsun/Nissan 1967-70 2000 Convertible $20,000
• Datsun/Nissan 1968-73 510 Sedan $8,500
• Datsun/Nissan 1970-73 240Z Coupe $37,500
• Datsun/Nissan 1975-78 280Z $25,000
• Toyota 1963-78 FJ40 Land Cruiser $70,000
• Toyota 1966-69 Sport 800 Coupe $25,000
• Toyota 1967-75 Corona $18,000
• Toyota 1969-73 Corolla $5,000
• Toyota 1971-78 Celica $11,250
• Toyota 1979-81 Supra Coupe $8,000

Some of the values seem high, but the list is for 'clean condition cars with low mileage'. Do you think these classics will continue to rise in cost, or do you think they will plateau out at some point in time? Here is a link to the original article:
