Darren you words sum up so well and echo my thoughts - to a degree

The current situation is not dissimilar to what we've been seeing in the Classic Porsche scene - I'll add unfortunately

Rare models being hyped up to the point that they get bought at stratospheric prices thus inflating the more common models at the same time. Some members in our community seem hell bent on using their influence to inflate prices as high as they can

Floods of 'enthusiasts' join in with monetary attraction as opposed to passion

The general consensus within the Porsche community is not sadness but one tarred with an air of looking back to when values weren't the most discussed issue within an enthusiasts community

Sometimes the appreciation curve doesn't always equal the enjoyment one!
