How much more would you be willing to pay for the same car if all chips in it were guaranteed to be available 50 years from now, at today's price plus inflation?

Me nothing. I drive my cars until they are 12 feet under and junk them. I'm sure the collectors of future will have a different opinion, but they won't get my cars, (see above) and I have no idea what cars (if any) future generations will collect.
