What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 55 yr, 48k 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.

If You’d Bought in 2008

$100K invested 2008-03 → today (18.5 yrs), this car vs where else you could've put the money. Rebased to 100 at the start; the dashed line is inflation (break-even).

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 (-5%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
