they do, T-mar just proved it stating the aero sold for $1000 new!

Besides that there were lots of nice ones (I'd call them higher end though not the highest of then end, they couldn't compete with the full racing bikes and didn't really try that much.. the aero aside).. with full chromoly double butted frames, some with chrome and nice Japanese parts... the imperial is one, the gran tour is another... both very nice kuwahara made bicycles. To a lesser extent even the club sport was a chromoly bike with forged drop-outs, though no chrome..
