    Is it me...

    Or do the GTO pieces seem to be creeping up in price again? I remember snagging a GTO rear garnish and lights for like $140 shipped from across the pacific roughly. Maybe a max of $200 at that point, now its like $180+ and its in the states and they're not that pretty, other GTO stuff is still going up as well i've noticed...

    I can only imagine one of two things...less GTO's on the road or we're slowly increasing demand. Ideas?

    Pretty much. I noted the same thing with my Conquest a back about 10 years ago. As parts stop production, the more desirable pieces will fetch higher prices. The cars may appreciate marginally, but don't expect Supra like resale to ever happen. With the Conquest, it appreciated from about $2200ish back up to around $2800 last I had checked. It seems, however, that KBB doesn't go back that far anymore, so no idea where it is now.

    And just because: I got my GTO tails for free. Traded a mod from gtouk for his, and shipped mine through my work at the time.

    They are closing Mitsubishi dealers in some areas. The parts are no longer being made any more by Mitsubishi. Those are the likeliest reasons I can think of.
