- Do mods increase value? Has all the work been worth it? After heaps of work, we get a valuation on my modified RX-7 to see if we've actually made any money...

He hit the nail right on the head. All these 90's kids that grew up watching F&F or playing Gran Turismo are now in their 30s, no kids, and have cash to drop on a RX7, Supra, S2000, R32/33, e30/36, Gti, etc. It doesn't help that all the big car CZcamsrs are in that exact age bracket and are pushing the demand even higher.
Just low key chatting about the value of an RX7 in front of a feckin DIABLO GTR! 👀

The Motocompo prices are really the most heartbreaking part of these crazy price increases.
As someone from Europe I can't believe you walked straight past that 205 GTi without even so much as a nod. Growing up that car was the holy grail and for me it still is. Been lucky enough to drive some fast VWs like 6n2 Polo GTis and mk 4 Golfs but driving a 106 Rallye and a 205 GTi was a completely different experience
love the Peugeot 205Gti behind them , One of the quickest cars I've owned on any surface, dirt, bitumen , winding roads , snow etc
Couldn't take my eyes off that 205 GTi, my childhood hero car <3
I was really excited to see that Escort. I bought a 90 Escort GT 3 years ago and have joined in the life of searching for rare parts.
Video was great. I work in the vehicle values department for Hagerty, the equivalent of Shannon’s in America. Interestingly enough, we called out the FB RX-7 in an article a few months back as one vehicle that had high potential for gaining value. I think Marty’s car benefits from a hot RX-7 market and having some really usable upgrades which certainly enhances the desirability. Without a doubt, this car was a savvy buy, even though investment should be the last reason to buy a car.
"We've got a 240Z". Camera pans to 260Z😆
Oh man - There are some sick cars in that auction place. That Ford Esky Mk2 in blue ,my word, that is an absolute beauty.
This is one of the most informative and helpful episodes you guys have ever done. I have struggled with this topic and had first hand experience with my regular insurer not willing to insure my car for market value because it’s now jumped into a whole different market and considered collectible and increasingly rare.
That Pug 205 gti looks beautiful.
I love the content, so diverse. It’s almost like there’s something for everyone!
Man that Peugeot 205 Gti, beauty. Should get that once Moog auctions RX-7 LOL
Unfortunately, it depends on who you speak with at Shannons. I called them to increase the value of my car but the Shannons lady flatout refused. I called again a few weeks later and the guy that I spoke to, who actually knew cars, increased the value by $10k. At the end of the day, something is only worth what another person is prepared to pay for it.
Throughout their whole conversation about the RX7 I was drooling over that Diablo behind them.
after all these months it looks so great! Great job guys!
That ending was so welcoming, you guys really are top blokes!
