Nostalgia repriced the Rabbit

Volkswagen GTI (Mk1) · value-and-market

The corpus captures a full market cycle driven, by the community's own admission, on nostalgia from buyers who had one in high school. Nice cars traded at $5,500-$7,000 in the early 2010s; a 2007 flip of one 33k-mile car listed at $10,000 drew flak before the same car brought $29,500 in 2020.
