Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.
Marque analyst note
The C2 Stingray median has fallen to $116,875, down 18.3 percent over the past twelve months—a sharp reversal for a model long regarded as a blue-chip collector car. With 194 sales tracked in that span against a total database of 784 transactions, the market sample is robust enough to signal genuine softening rather than seasonal noise.
Desirability remains very high and liquidity is rated high, meaning these cars still move when priced fairly, but buyers have grown selective. The shift from appreciation to depreciation status suggests the market's appetite for the Stingray at recent price levels has cooled measurably.
The three-year projection points to $73,963, implying a further 36.7 percent decline from current levels. Over five years, the base case settles at $64,317, a 45 percent total drop from today. These trajectories reflect sustained pressure as the broad classic market contracts and newer driver-focused alternatives capture collector attention.
Sellers holding C2 Stingrays should expect continued headwinds in the near term. The high-confidence SELL signal and depreciating status suggest that prices paid at peak, roughly eighteen to twenty-four months ago, will not return quickly.
