ThatDudeinBlue Says the Nissan 240SX Shouldn't Be a Collector Car

[@spencergates932]

Absolutely bonkers to hear netgear say both "I actually just got hood certified" and "trill recognize trill".

[@fyfoxx]

This video actually helped me understand a little more in depth about what makes so many cars today be worth so much rather than just only saying "High demand, Low supply" and thats it. Like honestly this video isn't hugely opinionated, its literal facts.

[@laidback93]

I feel like the same thing happened to E30s. They were turned into drift missiles or gutted for specE30. Great job explaining how something mass produced becomes a collectible and more valuable.

[@tulvideo]

definitely did

[@jooooohn401]

Most definitely. I’m in my 30s, my first car was a 91 318is that was $4700 (it was really clean), they were a dime a dozen back then. Seems like at 25-30yo a car will start experiencing nostalgia pricing. Timeline makes sense because they bottom out in price when they are 10-15yo, get bought up by 16-25yos and are trashed. Then 10-15 years later those buyers are in their 30s/40s and have money to blow on four wheeler nostalgia and the market is barren of unmolested options or clean builds. Fortunately I hung onto my e30, never letting it go.

[@abedekok322]

The analogy between Classic Muscle and 90s Japanese Sports Cars is a great way of putting it. The correlations go even further than that as I've experienced with my '71 Skylark as most of the desirable models are trashed, modified or at M'Cum going for $85k so you're left with limited choices at this point.

[@carfriendsimulator9981]

[@InternetDump0]

For real I’m learning quite a bit, still the fact I may never own a 240 leaves me a with deep pain in my chest😢

[@vintageludwig]

​@TheOtakuOdyssey I've owned 2 in my lifetime, I simultaneously loathed and adored both and wish I had them back. But honestly you're not missing much.

[@dancarlos1216]

My very first car was an auto 93 240SX SE hatch, black auto with nice black interior. I paid $2500 when I was 15, I'm almost 34 now and it would probably sell for five times that.

damn Netgear moving up in the world with that Kirkland Signature sponsorship.

[@Alwayscorrect12]

I actually did a final project for a class on this very phenomenon. Its known as the 25 year rule and it comes from collecting toys but it is vastly similar to cars and what is going to be collectible down the road. Net hit all the right points here but one point that I think furthers this conversation is how influential digital media is in cementing the 240sx and other Japanese classics in the collectible car scene. I did end up acing the final.

[@AlexTsekot]

"Do better" 100% agree, more people need to see this.

[@NobbleEggerton3rt]

That end quote went so hard

[@dillonrio7330]

Yet another straight forward, completely true and thorough explanation from Netgear. I couldn't have said it better. Nostalgia is a very strong force. For me it's the Hondas. They fit perfectly into your point about being cheap and readily available back in the day. No one thought FWD grocery getters would fetch the premium they do today. Looking forward to the next video. 💯

[@touku3631]

Finally loaded on my end and that is too real. There is no way anyone can predict and say "This car will be an actual investment" there is no way for anyone to predict the future. How do you think that the last gen STI's are gonna be worth a shit ton now as they are no longer going to be made. They'll go up in price somewhat and no one would've guessed

[@nickreynolds3702]

My dad had an Sierra rs cosworth back in 90s that he brought for 3 grand off one of his friends and sold it in 98 for 13 thousand now a 75k plus car always says it was one of his biggest regrets could never buy one now all driven by older blokes that think they’re 25 still and at 59 ain’t a good look

[@joshuakhaos4451]

My current car(Which is a fairly rare S197 Mustang ) went from being 6k to 15k over the last 2 years. And part of that is guys trying to throw offers at me in hopes I'll sell it. Ive turned every offer down and I get sort of annoyed with them at this point. I'm owning the car because I like it and enjoy it. I drive it and put as many miles on it as I want because it makes me happy. I've not bothered saving it for the next guy, because frankly, I'm not hung up on its potential value. I honestly dont care what a cars worth or could be worth, I just want to drive and enjoy them.

[@lthudgins]

Facts, Im keeping my S13 under wraps so I can build it when I retire 😅

[@RipRoaringGarage]

So I found you guys at 30k, so after you "blew up" though I feel you may go much more. Im a nobody youtuber barely struggling at 2k, but what I do know is cars. I couldnt care less about Imports in general. I grew up around big iron but I can tell you right now that Japanese cars will keep rising. Some classics will go down, others will keep rising regardless of generation. The S chassis is one of those, that even 50 years from now along with the Supra will still be collector cars. Im studying the L body cars now. They are even newer, a lot of them were made, a million trim and special editions, but how many will survive stock? How many will stay clean and low mileage? Some trims will be always desireable (Demons, Super Stocks, 1320s) just because of their specs, and how few were made (1320 nobody wanted, until it was too late, Super Stock is a Demon cope car, though its really the exact same car, minus the Demon Crate option). Im going to try to do streams where a bunch of us will talk it over (its been in the works, but health gets in the way....) Anyway. Despite all the goofing, there is a LOT to learn here, for anyone that wants to get one of these cars. Its part of research, doing your homework and not lying to yourself about the car down the street, or that facebook listing, thats just there, and easy to get.

I wasn't expecting how much people are starting to like the bricknose fords. I got one as a throw away cheap work truck in mint condition for 6k, put another couple into it and refreshed everything and gave that 351 a little chop with a cam. I think it's one of those ones that 20 30 years later it'll be worth more, not a ton more but a bit as it gets harder and harder to find a clean one

[@mboyd3361]

1000% agree my guy with what you said in your video. 👍

[@mikegsg9r]

Trying to take what you say here and apply it to 2021-2024 cars it's very hard to identify any future classics. The market is so saturated with models and options, at least at the entry level price point. But even at the other end there's a new M car for example every other year these days.

my dad was looking at prices of a70's and aw11's and was so surprised when they were like 15-20K for a beat up example compared to his 5k for a low mileage example back in the early 2000's. They were widely available and the a70 was the most successful saleswise of all the supras which like you said in the video made it attainable blah blah. And then he's been wanting an LFA without following the market and I asked how much do you think 1 costs and he said 400k like it did back in 2014 and then I showed him an auction listing. He was so surprised that a car that was mocked back then would be selling for so much now.

I think TDIB was more saying that the 240's are not worth $25k for a beat up drift car that people list them for. He owns a 240 that he built, and the one in the video was not his.

>I think TDIB was more saying... No, if he wanted to say that, he could have said it.

[@acjones39]

Let’s be honest, Nissan is still providing tons of OEM support to the 240sx, especially the s13. This feeds into the current trend of resorting these cars. Combined with a decent business of people parting these cars, you can bring these back to new.
