increasing in value. Anything that make a vehicle more rare makes it more valuable. Limited production, heavy modification, and heavy use all make the pure VX rarer and therefore more expensive. If there were millions anyone who wanted one could get one and the value would be lower. The factors making the value of the vehicle low right now are IMHO;
1. Not that well known. when I saw my 1st VX in 2002 which I bought new off the lot I had no idea what it was. If people do not know it exists they can not desire one.
2. The production of the VX stopped in 2001, it is now only 2009 that is 8 years. It takes 25 years to be considered a classic and 30 to be a collectible (or the other way around) right now the VX is a used car that sold for $30,000+
3. Economy being poor for cars and more importantly for SUVs. A point Gussie2000 made and I whole heartedly agree.
If I wrecked my VX today I would be looking for another one tomorrow. Imagine what a low mileage, good original condition, one owner VX will be worth in 20 years.
