What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 17 yr, 17k mi example, ~$25.8K 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? 52% 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 87 scored forecasts: 52% got the direction right, median value error ±25%.

Walk-forward: each ghost uses only data available at that date — no hindsight. 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.

Auction Scorecard gavel in range 6 in 10

We replayed 209 past auctions in this market — predicting each hammer price from market data before the sale (no hindsight). Typical miss: ±36%; the gavel landed inside our predicted range 6 in 10 of the time, and we lean slightly high 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.

Lead Indicator Forecast

Some indicators move before this market does. Ethereum (USD) has historically led it by about 1 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.

$25.9K now +1mo 2012-05 $36.8K $18.6K
BECAUSE Ethereum (USD) rose 23%. THEREFORE, given its usual 1-month head start, we expect little change — about +0% (≈ +$102) over the next 1 months. Confidence: Moderate (correlation +0.51, 73 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 (moderate conviction — 54% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by Ethereum (USD) and Consumer Discretionary ETF (XLY), though LVMH (luxury proxy ADR) points the other way.

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

If You’d Bought in 2012

Lost ground to inflation. The Ford Mustang (S197, 2005-2014) GT roughly 1.1×'d your money (a real 27% LOSS to inflation). It LAGGED the stock market by about 86% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-55%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
