Jetpilot Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 So what cars do you think will be in the next generation of the above, I guess 90's onwards? Apart from the general Ferraris etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Pre-991 GT3/RS definitely. NSX is silly right now, I don't believe that bubble will last though. GT-R Nismo, especially if the next one has hybrid stuff on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbitstew Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 80`s hot hatches are nicely rocketing up atm, along with any "classic" fords. Essentially all those cars which people wanted or couldnt afford back then, but now people have money to spare and are looking to relive their youth.

ioneabee Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 370z GT Edition obviously oh and the 370 Soft top 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docwra Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) Any limited edition or hardcore Porsche, the Boxster Spyder is proper affordable at the moment and GTRS's have gone up 50-80% int he last 18 months from what Ive seen, RSR's are money 240Z's, R32/34 GTR Any limited edition Ford - Focus RS particularly, the RS500's are already going up in value Any limited edition BMW, see CS, CSL, 1M Integrales Basically, anything thats limited edition and halfway decent .......... but for some leftfield suggestions: Nissan Figaro Mk 1 Audi TT Mk 1 MX5 Convertible E92 M3 Audi S2, RS2 Nissan 200SX S13/RS13 already going up, S15 wont be long FD RX7 BMW E39 535d, M5 and maybe the M6 3rd gen MR2 VXR/Elise/Exige All got something a bit unique about them IMO, if you stick one in a garage for 10 years youre bound to make money.

Wendy Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 My 1996 VW Corrado VR6 hopefully. I am only the 2nd owner and owned her 14 years. She's currently on 205,000 miles. I fully intend to keep using her though. Although she does have the garage for shelter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltzinblack Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I reckon: 993 Porsches 'last of the air cooled 911s' although these already seem to be appreciating. And even though you said 'apart from Ferraris' I reckon the 360/430 will (possibly at the lowest price they will ever be now?) and especially the 458 will appreciate. Probably the last n/a Ferrari? On that note, any marque that's known for its lovely NA engines will almost certainly be forced into turbocharging sooner or later, so things like the V8 M3, Aston V12s, Ferrari V12/8s.. things like that. Cheaper things... I agree about old Evos/Skylines and the VX220/elises. They will probably appreciate to an extent. Z4m coupe possibly too.

coldel Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 With any luck Celica GT-Four ST205s I did have a cheeky look at VX220s before buying the Celica and I couldnt see anything like mine when I sold if for less than £9500, £1500 more than I sold mine for 2 years ago - can really see them climbing. R33 GTRs are going up in price - again looking at prices over the last few months at least 20% up on about 18 months ago. Elise S1s are now more expensive than their newer S2 brothers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docwra Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Ive got a mate with an ST185 Sainz that hes just about to stick in a garage and leave for 10 years, fingers crossed eh? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Generally I would have thought the special editions hold value - I remember only 4 years ago the Tommi Makinen Evo 6s could be had for around £8k-£10k now they are £10k minimum for a dog around £15k for a half decent one. Nissan 300zx twin turbo? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouthwash Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Wish I'd kept this now: M3 Evo with about 50k miles on the clock, garaged its entire life, no rust etc etc sold it for the Zed as I never used it... Wish I tucked it away somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mouthwash Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Tell me about it, think I paid about £6500 for it which at the time was a lot but it was in tip top condition. 100% rekt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marzman Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Many marques seem to have risen 10-20% in the last 18 months. Audi R8's and Ferarri 360's were starting at around £35k ish and have now crept up to £40k. Similar story right down the spectrum from what i've seen, e.g. Elise's etc. Now i wouldnt necessarily call these appreciating assets... there are only a few of the real 'money cars' out there, like the Sagaris and NSX, which have seemingly doubled in value in the last 5 years.

monkeybrain1234 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Middle range high performance Naturally aspirated V8, V10, V12 engines.

un1eash Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Your standard Elise/Exige prices have stayed strong but that's mainly down to new Elise costing £30k+ and Exige £50k+ Special editions like the Sport 190 Elise and Exige S1 fetch top money now, almost as much as when they were new.

JetSet Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Generally I would have thought the special editions hold value Yes, something like the Capri Brooklands will appreciate much quicker than the standard 2.8i, only just over 1,000 made and good ones fetch over £20k. Low production models are a good bet too, mate of mine has a purple "Whale Tail" Escort RS Cosworth that he bought second hand in 1994, very low mileage and worth crazy money now.

gangzoom Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 To be honest though unless you find something ultra rare, if you just want to save money/invest most of the cars mentioned don't appreciate enough to be best just sticking the money in the bank. £10,000 saved up for 20 years (about how long you have to keep these cars for) with a 4% average interest rate (last 5 years of 0.5% is really abnormal historically), would be worth £22,000 due to compound interest. Given if you buy one of these cars to invest in, you never drive it and it'll just sit in the garage, I don't see why you would buy one as an investment....Unless your super rich and want a garage of cars to stare at?? It's kind of sad that some of the best HyperCars in the world are destined to just in a garages of the ultra wealthy and never ever been enjoyed for what they were designed to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gangzoom Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) Interestingly (maybe only for me ), according to the Times. If you invested £10k in the FTSE 100 over the last 15 years, if your unlucky enough to have gone in 'high' and got out 'low' you would have only £5k left. Reverse the situation, the best case is a £20k return (100% 'profit')....Which only just about matches boring old 'saving'!!
