There were a few interesting results after Shannons Late Summer Classic Auction in Melbourne last night.

Most surprising is perhaps the amount of money paid for a first generation 1996 Subaru WRX and a 1992 W20 Toyota MR2.

The Subaru was estimated to pick up between $22,000 and $26,000 due to its low 23,657km odo reading and desirability as an early version of a now legendary car.

This one was sporting 50,432km on the clock, and its interior looked well-kept for a 26-year-old targa-topped car.

It goes to show that the classics of the ‘90s are quickly picking up value, especially when it’s so rare to find a totally stock example.
