Gen 2\'s now selling for more than Gen 3\'s

I'm seeing a few 96-2000 GTS's selling for more than 2003 Gen 3's of the same mileage. This has to be unprecedented. Is it possible the Gen2 GTS is a collector car in as little as 6 years?

Source?

I think it's inevitable, just due to numbers produced and suriving, but I'm surprised you're seeing it already...

This is as close as I can find to an apples to apples comparison..
Same dealership, mileage within 2,000 miles
1996 GTS and a 2003 SRT

What is anything worth?

Only what someone is willing to pay!

Still, its interesting....Maybe a trend?

maybe it's got something to do with the limited remaining amount of GenII's comparded to the GenIII which are still in production. You have one that will never be made again compared to another that is still being made. It's also affected by the attrition rate of GenII's getting totalled. Simple supply and demand.

I hope the trend continues

That, and only 2K miles. Kinda sad, only 20 miles a month. And why not drive it more? He still didn't make any money on it.

Not really apples to apples since the blue/white is considered somewhat of a collectors car(especially a low mileage all original) and the SRT is just well an SRT.


All other GENII's are well below SRT prices, at least the stock ones compared to stock SRT's.

Totally NOT apples to apples by comparing the 96 Blue and White with a first year SRT. As the earlier post said, one is a true 1st year collector car and the other is a over produced Gen 3.

And just because they are ASKING $59,000 for the blue/white does not mean they will get it. Asking prices mean nothing. Just as the silly EBAY references mean nothing.
