Buyer's market for pristine RWD Caddies?

Hello group.

When everyone's complaining about high gas prices, my car buddy and I always say "great... it's time to snatch up some bargains!". (we both like big RWD GMs)

Granted old RWD Caddies are almost always a bargain in my view, since demand is low as it is. But we like pristine examples and 1-2 owner original cars well maintained by old guys.

What have you fellow enthusiasts observed in the marketplace? Certainly the higher mileage Caddies, fixer-uppers, or cars that need attention will be slow sellers. But what about the pristine top-line cars? Is grandpa finally getting rid of his low-mileage car because of the gas prices... or are sellers recognizing the value of the best cars and keeping prices high?

Feels like it's time to buy, before people get used to these high gas prices.
