That's the 'nice' part I was talking about. Who cares about the rest?

I hope it works out that the S2000 is a collectible. I've got #8433 and the way things are going that may be the only thing of tangible value I have left.

I'm going to win Pebble Beach production class in 2027 anyway, and its only 11 more years until 2038. No problem.

I knew from the moment I saw the SSM it would be a collectible car. It has incredibly classic lines... like the mid 50's MB's.

It just screams sleek and sexy

The two-seat Honda S2000 roadster leaps off the line with a lot of power for its size, and it masters the curves with a race-bred suspension. As befits its performance-oriented demeanor, only rear-wheel drive and a six-speed manual transmission are offered. A power soft top provides protection from the elements. The S2000 is not a car that takes well to rough pavement, or long trips that require more than a modest amount of luggage, but it is the perfect car for the enthusiast who likes to have fun on the way to work and then hit the track on weekends.
I usually track on a weekday Do you suppose I will get in trouble?

I'm curious, Dave. What cars would be on your list?

I agree with you. I don't think they'll be classics. I do think, however, most of the cars on the list will be collectables.

Probably none of them will be worth a zillion dollars, but most of them will probably fetch a pretty penny ($30,000 to $50,000 adjusted for inflation).
