What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 55 yr, 47k mi example, ~$54.1K 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.

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.

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 — 3% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by Ethereum (USD) and High-Yield Bond Spread, though Ethereum (USD) points the other way.

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

Solid store of value, but lagged the stock market. The Plymouth Road Runner roughly 1.9×'d your money (a real, inflation-adjusted 1.2× gain). It LAGGED the stock market by about 76% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-4%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
