Default Future Collectible Cars - what do you think?
I had posted a thread on the SRT-6 forum questioning the collectibility of my SRT-6 Roadster and it got me thinking about other modern cars that are destined to be collectibles. I wanted to compile a list of cars that we feel are good additions by anyone looking to begin collecting cars. I'm not talking about cars that are obvious collectibles like the Ferrari Enzo or Mclaren F1. I'm talking about cars that most, or ALL of us could currently afford but we feel will rise exponentially in value. List the cars (in as much detail as you can) and why you feel they will become collectibles. If you want to have some fun, list the price you think the vehicle will fetch at a Barret Jackson Auction in the year 2050. One last thing... don't include the Crossfire (in any of its variants). We all Know these will be collectibles!

Here's 5 of mine:

1993 Cadillac Allante - True 80's excess. The car took two trips across the atlantic to build. 93' was the last year built, had low production numbers and the new-at-the-time Northstar V8

1986 Dodge Omni GLHS- The first pocket rocket and predecessor to the WRXs and Evos out today. IT had 175 hp and only 500 produced.

1992-96' BMW 850 CSi - The top of the line Beamer and ultimate 90's GT car. The V12 was used on the Mclaren F1 and only 1,500 built.

1984-86' Ford Mustang SVO - First (and only) turbocharged 4-cylinder mustang. It was also the first 'special vehicle' from Ford's in-house tuner. Very hard to find, unmolested or lightly used examples

1993-1997 Toyota Supra Turbo - Overpriced for its target market, this car was a pure GT car and easily customizable to over 1,000 hp. Hard to find unmolested or lightly used examples.
