Factor breakdown
Open any factor to see what it means and which evidence supports it.
Collector quality and evidence are separate. Structural collector factors carry 75%; observable market factors carry 25%.
Methodology & score historyPublication gates
No open SCI publication gate.
Rationale
• 6 comparable USD sales underpin the current 84-month benchmark.
• Observed benchmark CAGR is +18.8% across the longest suitable 2–6 year comparison window.
• Recent transaction momentum versus the preceding period is +27.2%.
• Scarcity uses a conservative production base of approximately 292 vehicles.
• Collector Evidence G contributes source-backed structural evidence from 5 independent sources; it does not substitute for transaction evidence.
• SCI 1.5 separates structural collectibility from evidence confidence: scarcity, collector significance and future relevance carry 75% of SCI; observable market factors carry 25%. Thin public-market evidence primarily reduces Confidence rather than intrinsic collector quality.

Price evidence ledger
MSRP, sold, asking and guide evidence with original currencies
Price evidence
Launch MSRP, realized sales, public asking inventory, valuation guides and reported one-off commission estimates stay separate. Auction venue, mileage, model year and specification context are exposed where sources publish them. Source currencies are preserved and estimates are never relabelled as MSRP, transactions or current market value.
Manufacturer / launch MSRP
Original published launch pricing. Net/gross basis is preserved where the source states it.
Completed sales
Published realized transactions only. Auction, venue, mileage and specification context remain visible; unsold bids never enter this group.
