Future values

[InterlagosMitZimt]

What do you guys think will happen to the value of our cars in the next day 3 years? For something a little less run of the mill but not super low miles. Was toying with selling this year but honestly the money from the sale would be sitting for quite some time and I’m wondering if I’m better to hold off. Guess the trend of e30s and e36s would be the best way to figure this out

I think they’ll follow a trend somewhere between that of e30 and e36.

That said, we’re likely going to have a pretty significant recession— which short term will probably hurt values.

what are the specs on your car? Right now its a buyers market and not a sellers market. Unless you have a needle in a haystack to convince someone it's now or never

Here in Canada, it’s still a buyers market for e46 m3’s. I just sold mine 2 weeks ago. Prices will continue to go up assuming its clean.

Depends what you have. A low mile tin can civic just sold for 50k on BaT so anything can happen.
you can’t find a high mile NSX for less than 40k but those were very limited production unlike the M3 which are as common as anything.
A low mileage m3 will always go up at this point. I really think a clean really high mileage M3 will top out around 20k and not much more, not in our foreseeable future anyway. So the question is, do you have an ultra low mileage one that will go up, especially when the economy rebounds or is it a high mileage DD that is already at its low, but also close to its high limit? That said though, the civic selling for 50k tells me it’s not totally crazy to potentially see very high mileage e46’s sell for 40k regularly. So in a nutshell, no one knows. Did that help?

fwiw, I’m trying to sell mine but haven’t listed it either because I genuinely have no idea what it is worth either.
