What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 38 yr, 89k mi example, ~$75.1K now. The green line weighs confirmed auction sales most heavily (the amber dots — what cars actually hammered for), blends in fast-selling "just-missed" listings, and lightly smooths out month-to-month composition noise.

Lead Indicator Forecast

Some indicators move before this market does. High-Yield Bond Spread has historically led it by about 10 months — so its recent move implies where prices head next (dashed). The solid green line is actual value through today; the shaded path is what the lead implies.

$75.7K now +10mo 2012-01 $77.2K $23.1K
BECAUSE credit spreads fell 8%. THEREFORE, given its usual 10-month head start, we lean UP — about +1% (≈ +$575) over the next 10 months. Confidence: Moderate (correlation -0.71, 18 months overlap).

Crystal Ball — What Leading Indicators Signal

Distinct from the trend forecast above: this blends all 8 leading indicators (each at its own lead time, de-duplicated so correlated ones don't double-count) into one signal. Leading indicators are collectively signaling lower over the next ~12 months (low conviction — 29% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by Housing Starts and Ethereum (USD), though Core CPI (ex food/energy) points the other way.

⚠ The price trend and leading indicators disagree — momentum may be running ahead of the fundamentals.

A genuinely strong investment. The Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 roughly 3.1×'d your money (a real, inflation-adjusted 2.1× gain). It LAGGED the stock market by about 59% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It beat housing (+25%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
