Not sure if this was passed around... nice to see the Crossfire among the future classics of 2000-2010 among the Viper. Usually when I see the list of classics I say "NEVER".... they usually have hybrids and Japanese junk cars. But this list actually makes sense. The T-Bird, Viper, Cayman, NSX... etc all seem believable in my eyes! Read the full article....
Are these the future classic cars of 2000-2010?


Even though most cars are styled as generic jelly beans, a few stand out as potential classics. And they deserve mention for going it alone in a bland world of auto-sameness. As cars have developed to be pragmatic, wind-cheating safety mobiles, they've lost a bit of soul and a whole lot of emotion. This list celebrates those who pulled against their times to deliver some sex appeal to a buttoned-down world.
Here are my eleven picks in no particular order.

11. Chrysler Crossfire: It was tiny. Cramped inside. And rode on last generation's Mercedes SLK chassis. It was over-styled, over-tired, and soon it was just. . . over. But the Crossfire had guilty pleasure styling that was like enjoying a song by Lady Ga Ga--you think you shouldn't but you can't help yourself.
