All credibility lost in the story when it got to car 6. The BRZ/FRS/GT86 isn't going to be a future classic.

You want a front-engines RWD small car that actually is/will be a future classic: buy a Miata, or BMW Z4 M Coupe.

Z3M por favor
LFA. unattainable...$$$$ And where is the 997 GT3 CS/RS? Miata /MX5 are great small agile cars but I like to have a bit more grunt. Same goes for BRZ/GT86. Cheers Robin |

Also, we have been illuminated by a hidden fact that the article provides us: 1M was indeed available back in 2010, not after March 2011!

Normally aspirated motor, front engine, rear drive, manual transmission, reliable... You forget NA motors are going away, this will be a classic too. Remember Mustangs were reasonably priced secretary cars made in high numbers.....look now. |
