Super car prices 2003
Discussion
Great that you have kept your 355 all these years.
I sold my 2.7 GTB in 2014 after about 9 years and 25,000 miles - that was a big mistake !
Just routine servicing on that car until the last 3 months.
That advert is interesting.
Countach’s, Diablos, 355s and Testarossas have all appreciated significantly , but Murcielago prices remain stubbornly unchanged.
Why?
They have all the ingredients for greatness - the Bizzarrini V12, the spaceframe chassis, the carbon fibre bodywork , the true scissor doors, Audi quality control , the movable flank air inlets.
I think the Murcies are now getting some love in the US and mainland Europe, but strangely dont appear to be appreciated much in the UK.
Or maybe I,m just out of touch ?
During a factory visit last year Polo Storico told me that they will start offering their services on the early Murcies in 2026 or thereabouts which means that keeping these old ( read classic N/A V12 monsters - but definitely not dinosaurs ) cars going should be less of an issue.

According to https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/in...

I could write a book on buying them and selling them prior to the huge price increases. A Countach was available in the 40s for a long time, I bought one in 95 and it sat at the same price level for 8 years. In fact I just about got my money back when I sold it on. I had a Diablo SV next which I struggled to sell 8 years later, I’m sure I lost money on that, then a Murcie SV came in 2013 and its price started with a 2 and that’s not so long ago. If only my crystal ball had worked!
