GT Nationals 2050

[Stefan]

On the back of Hulks much loved XR8 thread, and the heated discussion about desirability of the GTs, I've was thinking about how our GTs will fair in 30 or 40 years time.

The X series GT are at least 40 years old now, some nearly 50. A huge number of them destroyed, neglected (or simply used as a car should) or they did not survive the crimes of the 80s. As a result very few low km examples survived.

So now FPV GTs seem to be more pampered, they are often not the primary mode of transport, lots of cars around that don't get used. My 2007 BF GT now 7 years old has 4,000kms on the ODO, I'm not alone. So in 2050, I have a feeling there will be loads of low km GTs around and there won't be that WOW factor like today when someone rolls out an XW GT with say 40,000 miles on it, There will be 100s and 100s of low km day dot original GTs, GT-Fs R specs, Cobras..with books etc....

Values aside, I'm thinking there will just be loads of good well looked after examples around to the point the they really won't be that special...

Time will tell I guess.
