Just sayin
you are probably right on the money. the fact it was the last ho means virtually everything when it comes to collectability and opinions

however, it did also look tough from the factory. so just like i am in love with coupes, there will be many who love the stance and outright toughness of the xy, that the xa could never have. the xa was a great car (the xb even better ), but because it was more refined than the xy, even the ho wasn't guaranteed the cult following the xy has - maybe instead of one model above all else, there might have been a couple that are at the top of the list - and if that was the case, then i think an phase 3 would still be around the top
