Ten Cars That Could Explode In Value Soon!
If you want to buy any of these cars just buy now since their price is going to hike in no time in future
10.) Saab 900 SPG/Aero:
First of all, Saab as we know it is dead. Second of all, this was one of the last Saabs pre-GM takeover. Third - the SPG kit is an overall performance and appearance upgrade over the already quite good 900. Fourth - prices are still cheap. They can't stay that way forever. Quite a few have been wrecked or are in a state of bad disrepair but a good example will be collectible very soon.
Why the SPG over other rare saab variants of the time? The simple fact is that you can still get one before they explode. Some oddball special editions like the "Springtime in Sweden" edition that ended up in AMerica somehow are likely going to stay in collector's hands if they aren't there already. But there are somewhere around 7000 total SPG saabs made from 1984 to 1991. There's bound to be one worth buying near you and it can probably be had for just a few grand. Not bad for a funky little swede that'll probably be 25-30k in the next decade.
9.) Chevrolet C10:
For so many years they were just "old beater trucks" and now there are not many left in unmolested, unbeaten condition. Also, although I'm an unrepentant Ford guy, I think these are just damn pretty and have always been my favorite truck. I'll take mine with the rare A/C option, please :).
8.) BMW E46 M3:
Following what happened to Neuklasse BMWs and the E39 M5 in line is the E46 M3. Sure, they sold plenty of them, but try finding an unmolested one with a manual!
It's possibly the most sought after M3 out there (maybe after the E30?), but most have been driven hard and rough. And coupes seem to be much harder to find than convertibles, and the SMG gearbox is largely considered to be junk.
7.) Pontiac G8 GXP:
The last one is always special. Well, not really, but this Holden/Pontiac is a proper future classic that's retaining its value already compared to other performance cars of the period.
6.) Alfa Romeo Spider:
With Alfa coming back to the US, people will start looking for these even more. Over 10K now, 15K in a couple of year.
5.) Chevrolet Corvette C4 ZR1:
Forget what you think you know about the C4, with a few upgrades, these can be sweet weekend rides indeed, and if you happen to one of the special editions, don't sell just yet.
4.) Aston Martin V12 Vantage:
The last V12 Aston Martin with a manual transmission. And the microphone drops.
3.) BMW 850 CSi:
Low production number, M-tuned V12, M brakes and suspension, mandatory 6-speed, popup headlights, etc.
2.) 80s Porsche 911:
Just 10 years ago, you could get one turn-key restored in the mid-teens. Now they're in the $25K-$30K range, and the '87-'89 versions with the G-50 transmission are going for even more!
1.) DeTomaso Pantera:
There will be a point when the market realizes that Panteras are just as exotic as any Italian of the era with the same crappy build quality but at least a less hectic engine.
