VF/VG MARKET

ONE OF the issues for the would-be hardtop buyer is keeping pace with the expectations of the market. While they’ve un-quesrtionably always had their fans, the prices have firmed up in a big way over the last few years. There’s no significant race history with these cars, so you won’t see GT-HO levels of pricing (then again who knew Kombi prices would be where they are?!), but the loss of local car manufacturing and a new generation of fans coming through has created plenty of interest.

As with all collectibles, condition is critical. A good Pacer will command premium money, but the full luxo 770 won’t be far behind. Owners are generally asking $20-40k for coupes.
