Reality my friend. It's what happens when everyone slams a certain car into the wall. They become more rare, thus people start paying more and more for them.

If the thing looks like a 300k car then ya, it'll be worth a lot less.

I wonder what mine's worth considering it's got very little rust. Oh wait, there's only one on craigslist right now for $5k and it's got rust...

In economics, market price is the economic price for which a good or service is offered in the marketplace. It is of interest mainly in the study of microeconomics. Market value and market price are equal only under conditions of market efficiency, equilibrium, and rational expectations.

That's not reality. I've owned 2 S14s in great condition (and sold both of them), and I've been keeping up with 240's since 2005

A 300k S13, even if it has all receipts etc, is nowhere near worth $7k
