Actually Brett, I have to disagree.  I was looking at what was titled "Old
Cars Price Guide", published by Edmunds I think.  Looked up the specs on a
81 Mk1.  Currently, in MY area, a mint, STOCK, 81 S would be worth over
4,000.  seems to me that people are taking notice of how rare nice ones
are and the prices are beginning to reflect it.  I could see the Mk1
becoming a classic, but definately NOT the mk2, they are so damn ugly.
HEHEHEHEHEHE JUST KIDDING!
