For example Nissan Skyline/ Silvia have increased in value over time, what other cars do you think will end up doing the same or holding value?
What Cars Do You Think Will Hold or Increase Their Value?

Holden Commodore SV6 and Ford Falcon XR6
The V8s are the ones that will go up, not the 6 cylinders. Maybe the XR6 Turbo will.
Everything is speculation and it would be almost moot to comment pretending to know what the future looks like… but I’m glad I’ve got a Supra and VE SS parked up in my shed. The only thing likely to hinder the value on these cars is electrification and ongoing costs such as more expensive rego, petrol being harder to find, smaller tyres becoming normal etc
As much as I love ICE, growing up with them, today's ICE into the future will be today's ECE from late 1800 to early 1900.
Peak period for ECE was from 1890 to 1940s. A good 50 years…
Suspect ICE will be part of the museum collection by 2050 or earlier.
Value of ICE cars will probably continue to climb for a bit before straight off the clift.
Some of these posts are so off the mark (referencing BRZs/86s, Golfs etc).
As I see it, there are two very simple criteria to determine whether a car will appreciate:
- Scarcity ( There were/are 10s of thousands of BRZs, Golf GTIs/Golf Rs [which are numb appliances as alluded to by another poster] - There were only approx 1800 S2000s sold in AU for example.
I guess the unreliability of VAG cars will make them scarce in future ;)
- Something special - 9000rpm, rifle bolt gearbox and incredible chassis of an S2000, the power and sound of an RB26 skyline/supra, the incredible comfort and reliability of the lexus ls400/ls430
Bottom of the range late model hatchbacks with long wait times to get into Australia. They basically plateau.
XR8 or SS ute. Having recently driven up north coast of NSW there is a market for them. Only going to grow scarce over time.
non dpf diesels with low kms
All of them. Hold for 1-200 years until you have the only one left and they'll be valuable antiques.
