If you have money to spend on a toy, then just buy one now. If you aren't in a hurry, take your time and find the car of your dreams or a good price.

If you are waiting for pricing to return to precovid pricing, it’s never going to happen as your dollar is worth significantly less today than it was in 2020.
Got it and that aspect is true. I guess I just see the Covid prices a little differently.

Prices will go up and down. As the economy moves in the direction of a recession, people pull back on this type of purchase. Fewer buyers - more sellers. I think in the long term, values will hold and give slight gains. There is a You Tube channel where the guy gives detailed market data analysis. I can't think of the name. Someone will hopefully post it. I bought my 2000 C2 coupe with TIP 3 years ago for $24K and might get $21K today given the overall economy and market. I bought it as a toy knowing it would ultimately hold its value.

These are beautiful cars. Finnicky but superb performers and lookers.

Exactly! Nothing is guaranteed except change, up or down.
I paid $20k for mine with just 50k in 2017
It is currently up in value, but since I don’t plan to sell it really doesn’t matter.
Will it go up or down? Yes!
Who know what will happen?!?
Anyone who tells you for certainty is just at guessing and/or a liar.
Maybe electric cars will make these worth nothing.
Maybe electric cars will make these worth a lot.
No one know for certain.
Anyone who says they do is a fool or a liar.

I don't know what yours is worth, but inflation means that what was $20,000 in 2017 is equivalent to $25,000 in today's dollars.
