What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 5 yr, 2k mi example, ~$51.2K 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 — 19% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by LVMH (luxury proxy ADR) and U. Michigan Consumer Sentiment, though LVMH (luxury proxy ADR) points the other way.

Trend and leading indicators agree — both point up. Higher-conviction read.

Lost ground to inflation. The Dodge Challenger (2008-2023) roughly 1.2×'d your money (a real 20% LOSS to inflation). It LAGGED the stock market by about 84% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-50%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
