No, the opposite. The 80s is really the beginning of the renaissance of performance cars. It's not a mystery. Those cars are climbing due to the old supply&demand curve. When those cars were new a kid in high school could not afford one but really wanted one. Now that same 'kid' can. With the exception on that list of the 'bandit' trans am which is much earlier than those others, and I think those models have probably finished their steep price ascent. GNX probably too.

I don't think that's the point, the point is trying to ID cars that are going to climb the price appreciation scale. Not that they will all cost the same.
