What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 28 yr, 57k mi example, ~$103K 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.

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 (moderate conviction — 48% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by US Metro Mean Temperature and WTI Crude Oil, though US Metro Mean Temperature points the other way.

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

Lost ground to inflation. The Porsche 911 (993) roughly 0.1×'d your money (a real 94% LOSS to inflation). It LAGGED the stock market by about 99% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-96%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
