i think that without a doubt if you were to have a mint condition 5th gen 40 years from now it too will be fetching a good dollar. anything old in pristine condition brings big money. lets say you paid 34k for a brand new ss and maybe drove it very limited and kept the mileage down to say 20k miles and parked it. that car theoretically could be bringing 100k to maybe alot more depending on inflation and what not. i was watching barrett jackson the other night and it seems many old cars that to me are not that desireable are bringing a minimum of 20k but more like 30k to 80k
for instance karman ghia for 20k not even a convertible and not original
an old panel truck restored nicely was 35k
dodge dart convertible very clean but again not anything super 50k

why wouldnt a really nice 5th gen in 30 years bring a good increase.
if you really have money to toss around i would be buying one and parking it from day one and forget about it. i firmly believe these are the glory days of the muscle car for quite a long time and just like before government regulation will remove these cars off the road.
