american cars have good turnovers when compared to imports and these are the reasons.
the generation of kids who loved the domestic/muscle car movement are know old enough with enough expendiable cash to splurge on a 30gs on a unrestored muscle car. then dip back into the bank account and spend another 20-30k to restore it.
i think when we get older the imports will be in the same boat. well all have more money, the imporst will be much more rarer and we wont mind spending more money to aquire a real se-r, nx2k, a real crx si or a teg gsr etc.
