5 Cars That YouTubers Inflated!

Doug Demuro be like: THIS is a car, and today I'll be showing you all it's quirks and features, and when I'm done reviewing instead of giving it a Doug score, I'll bust out a lawn chair and proceed to watch in enjoyment as I single handedly drive up the value with just my video alone.
Former Average calculations were made using prices from 2015 with a data set of 100 cars (20 per entry in this video) nationwide on Cargurus, and then averaging that out with Kelley Blue Book's Value at the time. *Note: for the 240SX, I ignored the KBB value as like with any classic car, it vastly undershot it's value due to grandma's using it as a daily. KBB is also wrong with other cars like Classic Corvettes, Mustangs, and really any old collectible car, as it fails to accommodate any vehicle that's achieved collector status.
Current Average Calculations were made using prices from 2020 on Cargurus, with a data set of 100 cars Nationwide from the United States only. I also looked at some Autotrader examples as well. Again KBB value was ignored for the 240SX due to same aforementioned above.

[@sethray1704]

I think the gtr r35 has probably inflated heaps

[@BladedAngel]

Nope. They're as low as $45K used (considering some were $100K+ new, that's a drop). Inflated by KZbinr's means cars we push via hype and have shot up in value over a short period of time. The GTR has just done what any other car does...depreciate steadily. It's price was completely unaffected, it just followed a normal pattern of a car's value. KZbinr's made the car, "overrated" and every 12 year old's wet dream. But you have to remember no 12 year old can actually buy, much less drive the GTR, therefore no amount of attention can raise it's value when the target audience isn't even in the market to buy one. Cars in this video were cars directed at an teenager/adult audience, thus when hype was generated via car reviewers, unlike 12 year old fanboys, us 16+ year olds DO have money to throw at these vehicles, and if we all do it at the same time...we accidentally skyrocket the prices!

[@BladedAngel]

OH MY LORD, You're right about this one. Some of these mofo's really out here trying to sell a Terminator for like $30K. Like shoooooooooot, I can get a 2015 Mustang AND supercharge it to be much faster with that kind of money!!! It's all collector price too! Anyone trying to build a fast performer has too big of a brain to buy one for $30K since like I mentioned, you can boost a cheaper car and clap it. So the only people crazy enough to drop $25K+ on terminator's are...you guessed it. People who will barely drive them and just brag, "i hAvE tHe fIRsT iRs mUsTaNg. hErE, rEaD aBouT iT!" I remember when they were still depreciating and some were like $16-$19K. Now see, at those prices, they're a solid car. Well worth the money for performance and all around. But once cars hit collector value...oh lord. It's impossible to get money's worth. As Casey Putsch put it, it's in the hands of snobs at that point.

[@bschultz1981]

Are you getting your “moneys worth” out of a 69 fastback? Are you really getting it out of any desirable car? You can make anything fast so by that logic you also way overpaid for your corvette. Hell, look at what you are paying for a clean fox body notch now. There are just not that many out there anymore just like there are very limited amounts of terminators. I’ve also never heard of a terminator owner brag about their irs, a lot of them actually swapped in a sra.

Yup I just went looking for one because I want to save only to see them at like 30k... I could have swore they were closer to 21-25k last summer.

Crown Victorias have quite the modding scene these days. Everyone sleeps on them but they can be a lot of fun

[@trey1215]

I agree with the crown vics. I had two..got the first which was a 2004 p71 for only 500 with 87k miles in 2015....only thing I did to it was put a sound system in it, tint and exhaust. Sounded great. Owned that car for two years, went on road trips constantly, car never gave me problems. Eventually sold it for 2500 in 2017 lol and the person crashed it a week later smh.....a few months later got tired of driving the Plymouth neon I had so I purchased a Second one I bought was a 08 base for 400 with 130k eventually the transmission went out and I traded it in for a 06 mustang gt. I loved those cars except the police attention they brought. Currently own a 94 caprice 9c1, 08 300c and the mustang gt...but when I drive the caprice I honestly miss my vics but the prices jumped up so much I doubt I’ll buy another.
