Wait, you have only been here since January, bwahaha. This is too funny. Like time belonging to a forum somehow matters in relation to anything, lol. Kind of similar to how you think number of likes is important. Now you are crying to mods, lol? Did you put your big boy pants on today? God this is hilarious. Hope your butt-hurt feels better soon.

I said "if" and I tend to agree with you but you never know. The value of a clean fox body has gone up substantially recently and 30 years ago they didn't really think that was the case. Its hit or miss with these things.

As far as the C8 goes? Who can say? I wouldn't base my purchase today on what may or may not happen decades down the road. GM is going to build as many of these as they can sell. Any given example is unlikely to be noticeably more or less valuable than the other 30,000 they'll make this year. Buy the car you want now, and enjoy it now.

Why do you bother posting? What do you actually know? It seems you are pretty new to cars, 99% of what you post is cut and paste BS that you still can't manage to comprehend or you're calling someone out for posting BS as stupid as your own and now you're offering advice on how to option a car for long term value?

Hmm, let’s see gas will have a ~$20/gallon Federal tax by then and no one will want one! 
Reminds me of my Dad telling me in the 1930’s depression he and friends would buy 12 cylinder Lincoln’s etc cheap as folks could not afford the gas! They would remove lifters on the correct cylinders and turn them into good running 6 cylinder rides!
Yep a high gas tax is how the “no fossil fuel” crowd will get folks to stop using hydrocarbon based fuel. Can see their ads now supporting the we’re killing the planet, “Puppies drowning in Florida because the State is threatened to be under water, etc etc!”

The standard financial line is that past performance does not guarantee future results. Having said that, go look at 97 through 2000 C5 values and see if any are worth a lot more than the others. If they are, I’m guessing it’s because of mileage and condition....
