Value vs. Performance
I agree withe both Greg`s & Brian`s sentiments. On a true 'collector' car originality is going to up the price. But as Brian said, these cars are going to sell as mass produced not "collector". The 'Trim' package was only that, no performance or power train improvements.
The standard 3.0 Verde would "sound" nicer with the cams from an "early" GTV6 (81-82) that had 102/108 cam timing. The later cars & Milano`s used cams with 108/108 cam timing, which makes a bit more torque, which is good. The "S" 164 cam is still wider spaced, but with more lift feeds the 3.0 better, and again is designed as a better torque making cam. Of course HP is better as a result of the lift and increased duration to get that. The better motors are the "L" series which came with all the improved parts.
Put in a 3.0, I think it would be a good "investment" in fun and downstream value.
