The easy answer is the car has to appeal to people with mega bucks. You have to attract the 'B'illionaire. The car needs to be 100% complete/finished and nearly perfect in every aspect. Perfect paint is a must. Numbers matching is a definite plus but not entirely necessary. A tastefully done, modified car will attract a sporty rich person. Maybe if the country votes in the right direction the 'regular guy' will have money to spend on extras in the future. Just my opinion and many others that I talk to.... Vote right and keep your car until the middle class is healthy again.
