I just looked through tons of cars from the generation, and not counting exotics, there weren't really any that haven't been mentioned.

I don't think collector equals exotic. A Duesenburg, Tucker or a Boattail speeder wouldn't be collectibles, they would be exotics. Meaning a car that was out of the ordinary realm throughout it's entire life.

A collectible is a car that an average person could acquire that has been deemed to hold value or even appreciate after 20 years.
I would say Porsche would be at the top of this. Any car that costs over $200k will ALWAYS be collectible.

My 944S2 finally started appreciating. It still isn't worth a lot but it's nice to know that when it goes into the shop for repairs I'm not throwing money into a depreciating asset anymore.

Pontiac G8 a.k.a. Vauxhal VXR8 a.k.a Holden Commodore.

Believe it or not, it is a fantastic car. If Pontiac had more time I think the G8 would have potentially saved them.. As it is they are already appreciating because of how few were sold.
