That said, I don't think I would call it "classic" or think it will ever be collectible. The performance is nothing crazy, either. I do think it's got a great fun factor, but c'mon guys, it's not like a supercar or something. Aren't new Camrys as fast in a straight line? And it's not like they're rare or something.
I don't mean to rain on your parade. Like I said, I love my car and I'm glad you all love yours. But tossing around words like classic and collectible is a bit of a stretch IMO.
Cheers!

what you say is true to an extent. but an example would be like a 356. not fast by any means but yet very collectible. as far as the amount produced yes there are alot. but then again corvettes fetch some very high amounts at auctions and they too are very common.


now im not saying the 986 will be like the 356 or a classic vette. but what I am saying is that it isnt always about performance or amount originally produced.
