2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS - Click above for high-res image gallery

If you're looking for the most collectible American-made vehicle on sale right now, you might want to stop by your local Chevrolet dealer. According to the Friends of the National Automotive History Collection, the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro is the most collectible car on sale right now. Each year, members of the organization get together to vote for the single domestically produced car or truck that's bound to be a good return on investment later down the line. There's no arguing that the 2010 Camaro is a hot piece of metal, but we could think of a few other vehicles that could have nabbed the honor.

Such as? We're glad you asked.

If it were us picking, we'd lay a finger on the 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. With the amount of abuse those trucks are designed to take, we can imagine that the future won't exactly be littered with operational examples, much less show-room quality trucks. Throw the simple fact that Ford will only build a small number of the desert pounders compared to the fleets of Camaro models rolling out of Canada, and you've got an even better case for a future moneymaker. But hey, who are we to argue with the group that picked the Chrysler Sebring Convertible as a winner in 1996? Hit the jump for the full press release.

I kind of disagree with this. I think an SRT-8 Challenger is a much more collectible car. There are just way too many SS Camaros being produced at this point. This is my opinion of course.

I think they are defining collectible not on rarity but speculating on value.

Re: NEWS: National Automotive History Collection dubs Chevy Camaro 'Collectible Car o

of course they will be concidered a collectable. i have no doubt in my mind. just like the 69, its a beautiful car. and it will be a very desireable car in the future. no matter how many are made. look at the early 60's mustangs. there were half a million made in the first year. depending on the car, they hold great value. much more than they were new back then.
