This is where internet forums fall short, or at least me typing on one. It is harder to make my point here than it would be in normal conversation. Basic point is based on "only 17xx" cars built alone, that is not enough for me to agree they will be future collector items. These cars are spectacular, and I love them more than just about any other car ever produced. Add in the fact that the bits and pieces that make that car 'special' to you and I deter a lot of folks from considering it..including the price tag.

One more thing - what about the first gen COPO cars that you referenced makes them special? For that matter, why do first gen Z/28s command more than the base and SS models?
They are low-production, high-performance, special engine/suspension package cars. From what you've said about the 5th gen Z/28, that's not enough to make them collectible so what is the magic ingredient they possess that the Z/28 doesn't?
