What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 17 yr, 53k mi example, ~$58.3K 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.

Did our model work? 64% direction calls right

Each faint amber line is a forecast we would have made at that point in the past (12-mo horizon), drawn against what actually happened (blue). Over 39 scored forecasts: 64% got the direction right, median value error ±11%.

Auction Scorecard gavel in range 9 in 10

We replayed 1,086 past auctions in this market — predicting each hammer price from market data before the sale (no hindsight). Typical miss: ±17%; the gavel landed inside our predicted range 9 in 10 of the time, and we lean slightly low on average.

No-lookahead: predictions are made before each auction closes; the scorecard grades confirmed sold auctions only (no-sales excluded). A modeled estimate, not a guarantee. Data-backed market intelligence, not a guaranteed prediction. Figures are modeled estimates from asking prices, sold comps, and public economic indicators; they can be wrong. Not financial advice.

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 Consumer Discretionary ETF (XLY) and Gold (futures), though Unemployment Rate points the other way.

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

Roughly tracked inflation — flat in real terms. The Porsche 911 (997) Carrera S roughly 1.3×'d your money (a real 2% LOSS to inflation). It LAGGED the stock market by about 55% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-19%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
