Own your dream car by understanding the Depreciation Curve : Tim's Enthusiast Garage: Garage Talk 2

I started out with a $1500 dollar car and bought and sold cars I liked and always wanted to own until I had the car of my dreams. You can do. Most cars depreciate to a certain level and then climb back up. Understanding car values can help you attain cars currently out of your reach. In this introductory discussion I give a bit of insight on how I think about this as well as some examples. I hope this inspires you. You can do it! **one note. The car pictured is a 2 seat car and not the 2+2. Ironically in making my point of the 4 seat being long and the 2 seat being short.. I bumble a bit in the voice over . Thanks for watching !!

Tim, I’m the guy that bought a Lotus S4S and commented on your review (of yours) which was spot on. Having watched this vid of yours I am going to have to now watch everything you have done because I have a 928 which I have my eye on (looking for a while), the XJ220 is definitely the outstanding undervalued super super car that will hit stratospheric prices in the future, and your overall understanding of what needs to be done in buying is spot on. Comforting that my automotive philosophies are being validated. Cheers Tim.

Great discussion. I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts about buying the best-of-breed sometime.

Great vid Tim. I have my 84 Toyota Land Cruiser which has appreciated. My 88 Porsche 88S4...not too much...but a great car. My fav of the bunch is my 96 Volvo 850R sedan...auto. with IPD tasteful mods and IPD tune it's 280hp.A little sleeper and comfortable.

I have been dreaming about owning a Lotus Esprit for years, and it has come true, yet. Maybe, I will hit the lottery one day. Who knows?

As a collector, how do you avoid the trap of "attachment" to the cars you purchase to flip? Especially when you are buying cars YOU like?

[MrJuki]

Someday you will have the XJ220 I'm sure of it! Thanks for the video.

You had a car dealership 😮 It is one of my dreams to one day have a car dealership in which I’d only sell cars I like.
