Price history
Every dot is a completed sale. The line is the median of each year's trading — what the market actually settled at, not what anyone asked.
By model year
Which years of this car carry a premium, once there are enough sales of each to say so.

The reading is thin
A deep analysis sends every source after this exact model: it reads what the corpus already holds but cannot see, asks every source four ways, checks how open auctions ended, then hunts auction results in seven languages. Whatever it finds stays for good — and lands on every member's car of the same model.
