When it comes to what makes a car collectible though, what gives it that special "soul", performance comes second to looks. Ideally you combine looks and performance, but looks matter most.

It is no coincidence that the most collectible cars in the world (think Ferrari 250 GTO, Aston Martin DB4 Zagato, etc) are also absolutely stunning. Or that Sepia brown Porsche 911s are very hard to sell.

The M135i will come and go and quickly be forgotten. Looks matter. People want to collect a Sharapova not a Mauresmo.
