The phrase, "normal cars and collectible" do not seem to go with each other.

Almost every car has some rabid fans with a website. And collectible does not = value. Camry/Accord/Civcs? you have to be joking! These are appliances made for poeple who don't really like cars. They have no souls.

Laugh all you want, but there are many ricers who think those cars are the greatest thing since sliced bread. They will all become old one day and desire cars from their youth that they thought were "cool" Besides, one has to admire even today that these *** cars are very well engineered, designed and built to a very high standard. Even if you do think they are souless(I do) you can't fault most of them from a reilabilty, quality, or engineering standpoint.

One other car I forgot on my list: Acura Integra

I wonder if my 1990 Cavalier Z24 would ever become colletable

But I think that the first year 4th gen and last year Camaro SS's would be collector items. Also maybe some of the rare color Z28's I say that the FWD V8 Impala, Monte, and Grand Prix will become collectable one day. Just cause of the V8 5.3 in them and powering the front wheels.

I'm gonna have to agree with aztek, especially the ones people ordered with the camping equipment. There won't be many around in a few decades, and I can see the leftovers being collectible.
