While high-end collector cars over $250,000 represent only a small fraction of the market at 0.2%, the overall U.S. market for these cars is estimated to be worth over $1 billion. Rarity plays a key role in the value of these unique cars, with limited production runs such as the Lamborghini Miura, Maserati MC12, and Ford GT40 contributing to their allure and investment potential. The exclusivity of models like the Ferrari 250 GTO, Rolls-Royce 15 hp, and Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale, each with a minuscule production volume, further highlight the premium placed on scarcity in the collector car world.
