possibly, maybe probably, but then again some designs are of there time,some designs are timeless and some designs are ahead of their time. Love it or hate it, the 999 shape is a very strong design in many ways,and in time it may be appreciated, it may prove to have been ahead of its time and that relatively short production/low numbers may bring a recovery in its value, especially for the rarer and faster yellow :-)

I wouldn't buy a new one on the basis that it would be just too fast for me, may take a look if a wee brother arrives later
