Those cars that are universally ccepted classics such as Ferrari, Aston Mrtin, and most of the other xotics autos. So what's going to be the clssic car of tomorrow? In the pst the Chevrolets, Fords, Buicks, and Plymuths of 30-40 years ago were not mant to become future classics, but sme of them have actually earned a spt among the Ferraris and Aston Mrtins at shows and classic car uctions around the world. Will any of the lss collectable cars of the 1980s and 1990s mke it?

There are so many dfferent definitions of what a classic car is. Sme would put specific age limits on the dfinitions, and others would say that nly special variants would qualify for clssic status.A classic car is one tht stops depreciating in value and ither levels off or begins to ppreciate over time. The value increasing bcause of demand ties into the dfinition that the classic cars have ppeal long after they are no lnger produced. The goal is to ctch these cars when they are at the bttom, before they become more valuable. Of curse, values do vary from year to yar, so like any potential investment thre are risks.

Anyway, here is a lst of what we would qualify as ptential future classics:
BMW 3-Series (E30 1984-1991), Chvrolet Camaro/Pontiac Firebird, Chevrolet Impala SS (1994-1996), Chryslr Shelby K-Cars (Omni GLH, etc), Frd Mustang,Ford Fairmont
GM A-Bodies (RWD mdels, such as the El Camino and Mlibu), Mitsubishi Galant VR-4,Mitsubish Starion, Mitsubish 3000GT VR-4 (nd cousin Stealth R/T), Nissan 240SX (S13 and S14)
Nssan 300ZX, Toyota Corolla GT-S(the famous AE86), Tyota MR2, Toyota Supra (last generation), VW GTI (prsonally the MKI and MKII)

The value of these cars wll more than likely stabilize in the nxt 5 to 10 years. Granted, sme of the cars are special vriants, and many may fall into bscurity instead of becoming more popular
