    So how much less is a 348 worth when comparing it with the 355 assuming:

    Both cars are street legal, track ready and road ready, known documented history ?

    Here in the area I know well SoCal
    348's are in high demand for collectors along with 95-355's. The 348 prices are very close to the 355 and raising. I would not be surprised to see them equal or pass.

    Things going for them in collectors eyes

    They are the first challenge car that started it all.
    100% street legal in all of US
    Very low number made
    Historic Car that is a must for every collection

    I can understand this. If I were to add a Challenge car to complement my 95 355 Ch, I'd look for a 348TS Ch. Though key words are "if" and "add" not "replace". Besides, I have other race cars that are on the list before a 348 TS Ch; this would ultimately limit what I would pay for a 348 Ch.

    Cool shots! That's my car on the right side of the grid, 4-5 rows back- the grigio car with Italian striping on the top and side strakes (#98791).

    On my list are two old race cars in the same vintage as Chaparrals. One is plausible, the other highly unlikely unless I build a replica which wouldn't be the same.

    Back on topic, is there a 348 Ch registry that exists?

    I'm not aware of any but it would be nice to start a Registry for the 348 Challenge cars

    At the moment there is no register for 348, 355 or 360 CHs existing. But, someone is working on it ��

    The question is, is it really a Challenge the car in Monaco?
    1997 and street legal?

    Any predictions for 2016 as to where Challenge car prices will go? I know they may follow the general trend up or down but being a niche car it may perform differently. Let's get some predictions.

    348 up
    355 up

    360 is still a mystery to me. Universal Autosport for example have several 360 challenge cars for sale, around 70k, while a 360 challenge stradale went for more than 240k.
    The stradale is road legal but on track the challenge car would be faster. So the price gap is just being based on the road legality of the stradale.

    I would say 348-355 up

    360 holding
    430 holding to up
    458 down

    This is based on what folks in my area are after. Some very aggressive collectors after 348-355's.
    I understand in Europe prices are high, US buyers are catching the trend. Who knows how high. If I get an offer thats good for me I will sell all 3 of them.
