I was watching Speedvision on Sunday evening, and guess what??? The '02 was picked as one of the top 10 overlooked collector cars, chosen for their potential future appreciation in the collector marketplace. Click below to see it!

I think Hemmings is reaching a bit here.....

It will be MANY years before a MG midget or AH sprite is really worth anything..... Even concourse Mark I "bugeyes' hardly break the $10K mark when they go up for sale right now (even though it costs you MORE than that to restore one).

Same with Triumph Spitfires....

As for the rest. I simply can't picture myself (or any other car collector) really wanting a Buick Regal T top. Now give me a Grand National and I'd head to the drag strip.....

As for the 2002.... I wouldn't expect them to jump up in value anytime soon just because of this little list.
