What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 24 yr, 70k mi example, ~$30.0K 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 higher over the next ~12 months (low conviction — 29% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by 2-Year Treasury Yield and Gold (futures), though Ethereum (USD) 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 (996) roughly 1.2×'d your money (a real 21% LOSS to inflation). It LAGGED the stock market by about 85% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-54%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
