I think auctions are the better gauge rather than looking at advertised values, as with auctions you get to see what the market is actually willing to pay (even if it does not reach reserve).
Interesting, I think auctions for "normal" cars are actually the opposite.

Add your auction tax, people putting in bids for mates, who even knows the auction is on etc and its far from real.

Would be good if there was a way to track actual sale prices like with property, most results are BS.
