not all, suppressors never are good investments unless it is something really rare. Machine guns and registered sears go up every year if you shoot the piss out of them or not. I bet a HK sear bought today for 12 goes for 14 in 2 years even if you run thousands of rounds on a beltfed with it.

Yep, meant to put "machine gun/select-fire", thank you for correcting. My little MAC 11 is on the *bottom* end of the scale but it has probably increased in value at least 6x what I paid for it.

I hadn't realized they were so expensive.

Base sticker for a 1LT Coupe is around $48K or so, maybe a tad higher, but you can buy them ALOT cheaper. You were looking at the ZR1 models, sticker for those is in the price ranges you posted. Big price range, eh? There are alot of Vette models and options, I think this covers them, at least for 2011:
-Coupe
-Convertible
-Grand Sport Coupe
-Grand Sport Convertible
-Z06 Coupe
-ZR1 Coupe

I probably missed something...LOL...but I'm "new" to the world of Vettes.

But to answer the original question - keep the vette if you like it but it's a depreciating asset, to a point, unless it's a classic. Good quality firearms should at least hold there value, if not appreciate somewhat. And like one poster pointed out....NFA stuff is good for an investment...the prices are crazy!
