Do you think there are any new or recent cars that are going to become collectors items in the future mostly due to selling poorly when new?
Car must be good, so no "hurr Murano convertible"

I think the Elise has potential. They aren't priced super high new, handle great, and are reliable. In 2014 Lotus only sold 157 cars in the US.

I think these may end up with a cult following, especially after lol emissions.
>>
>>14794118
But they will be collectible in the US, where they are badged as Chevys and sell like shit.
>>
>>14794118
They literally can't give them away here. There are two brand new ones at my local chebby dealer for 38k. Granted, they're autos, but surely there's SOMEONE who wants a veeate sedan with an auto.

The final generation of Australian built HSV Commodores, regardless of whether they're any good or not.

I've got a chubbie, m8
Should I just become an Australian now?
>>
>>14794164
Shit, I'm actually considering getting one as a first car.

My local chebby dealership is desperate to get rid of the things, and are being marked THOUSANDS of dollars below MSRP.
>>
>>14794213
Thing is everyone expects them to become collectable so there's a stupid number that are just being bought to be hidden away. They're not going to go full GTHO III since there'll always be plenty mint ones thanks to all the collectors.

Same with FPV stuff.

Golfs aren't rare, they won't be cult any time. The only one that was, was the 1st gen and the 3rd. It'll end up like the rest of these shitheaps

early 4Cs with the ugly lights will be super-rare

Obvious answer is obvious.

This (997 GT3 RS 4.0) along with the GT2 RS, are instant classics.

If they actually do stop production in the US market, as their announcement implied, the North American 4 door hatchback version of the Fiesta ST stands to have a fairly devoted niche market. Production for the North American model only began in 2013, and if they stop this year that will mean a limited number of the vehicles were produced for only three years.

I don't know about achieving collectible status, but who knows what the next 15 years hold.
>>
>>14796363
I thought they were just moving primary manufacturing to Thailand for the 4-door Fiesta? I was thinking it was opening the door to have 2 door Fiesta ST imported along with the Focus RS from Cologne to the US market (or an option for a 2 or 4 door Fiesta ST maybe?).

My real dream was to have a 2-door Fiesta RS imported from Cologne along with with the Focus RS, but that's just never going to happen it seems.

Maybe a diesel Golf wagon with manuel in burgerland would be rare.
And older VWs are already cult-ish, have you seen those faggots?
>>
>>14795231
They're fun, they're quirky, and the unreliability is a meme.
>>
>>14796674

I live in germany, every 4th car is a Golf.
>>
>>14794098
G8 GXP/GT will probably be worth more as you could get it with a manual.
>>
>>14794114
Thats a sexy as fuck wagon.
Are they decent?
>>
>>14796794
I can't speak on the wagon but I had a cts-v coupe from that generation and it was a great car. Around 550 hp, big torque. It was heavy (around 4K lbs iirc) but quick and fun to hoon in. Wish I had gotten the wagon desu, have never seen a V wagon irl
>>
>>14796771
I clearly stated burgerland, but if you're too new to know that means America, as in the USA, now you now. You may be surprised to learn that cars sell differently in other countries.
>>
>>14796784
You can get the SS with a manual as well. They didn't start with one, but they added it later because they thought it would sell more.
>>
>>14796859
They only made something like 2,000 wagons. I saw one IRL in Venice Beach the other day but that's the only one I've seen.

If you didn't buy one new you already missed the boat.
