They may have had factories in Yugoslavia too but it was produced in the USSR for sure.

Im curious what happens to the classic car market once the current generation of say 50+ year olds pass away. Im a car lover but I dont really ever see myself buying anything from 1980 or earlier, I guess we all just want the cars we grew up dreaming about and Im curious if these valuations will hold up long term, I really cant see it happening bc these american cars they were not produced in low volumes like ferraris and I just cant see the demand being there for them in the future


Much of the draw is the styling and sound of classics that cannot be matched with new cars because of regulations. A demand will always be there because people want to display their personality and own style. Much like the vintage watch, furniture, gun, etc market, there will always be a demand.

I know these cars aren't too old yet, but I have always been a big fan of the early 90s Nissan 300zx. Before I got my last car, I was thinking hard about getting one or those instead. They have that timeless body style.



I was also a big fan of the 1995-1999 BMW M3. They got that good look too.

1987 Buick GNX

Way back in 1987, we knew the GNX would become seriously collectable. Did we dream one could sell for $165,000, though? Maybe.

Tigers are cool, Carroll Shelby built them for the Rootes Group.

I have always loved the 1970 Torino GTs (before Clint made the later model cool).
