I think they will drop to the equivalent of around $20000 in today's value in the future. Looking at 40's vintage restored cars and they are around that value now.
Value is probably more related to interest in the cars than anything really. No interest in the panelvans during the 90's equalled no value at all.
People dealing in them has pushed the price of panelvans way past what they are worth.
Agree with GTR and SLR5000 but the L31 SS hatchback that are still flare less are pretty rare these days imho they will hold there value more than the others
L31 SS hatchbacks yes, but not SS in general. Like L31 Sandmans vs L32/L20/LD1 Sandmans.
Totally agree thank god my van is an L31Originally Posted by HK1837
HSV will be a big thing in 20 years time. No one values them now but logic says people enjoy what they took for granted in their youth.
Big call but im not sure the HSV commodore will be that popular yes it is a commodore
they have been around long enuf now and there going down in value big time
group a or group 3s are a different kettle of fish

Time will tell
I agree with HSV Commodores not being worth much apart from VN GroupA and maybe the 427ci versions, probably because they are seen as a Commodore. The HSV coupes, particularly the GTS and Coupe4 are the only ones i'd have and prices reflect that they are sought after. You can buy HSV VX Clubsports for around $10k in great condition, $5k cheaper than the equivalent V2 CV8 Monaro in the same condition and kM. A nice VX GTS is $15-$20. You won't buy a V2 GTS (equivalent of VX GTS) for much under about $35k or a Coupe4 for under $45k.
HSV will have the same revival as any other Holden. They will lose value before the same as any other Holden. You have to appreciate that other generations are going to be more interested in what they grew up driving and not what previous generations drove.
You just mentioned what's important with every generation, the nostalgia quotient.
Funny, all the cars that are in demand now are what I grew up with and the plethora that I know of are mostly owned but people my age, be they blue ovals or lions,so that kind of says it all.

Took the words out of my mouth, big call.
Just trying to imagine the same retrospective adoration for HSV as for HK - WB, XW - XC as for all those that came after.
In some ways, but like any Holden, Commodore, Torana etc only a select few of them will be collectable, the rest will just be a passing fad. No-one will want the bottom shelf stuff unless that is all they can afford.
