* Economy cars: Could start around $1,800 - $2,500. Think smaller models from manufacturers like Chevrolet, Ford, or Plymouth.
* Mid-sized cars: Likely ranged from $2,500 to $3,500 or more, depending on options.
* Luxury cars: Could easily exceed $4,000 and go much higher depending on the brand (Cadillac, Lincoln, etc.) and options.
It's important to remember that these are rough estimates. Inflation significantly impacts the perceived value; $2,500 in 1963 has significantly more purchasing power than $2,500 today. To get a precise price for a specific model, you'd need to consult resources like old car brochures or price guides from that year.
