13 Forgotten Vintage Cars That Are Now Collector’s Gold

The classic car collector world is just as liquidity-driven, intense, and volatile as the financial market, complete with speculators trying to stay ahead and figure out which models are likely to see their value rise in the nearest or farthest future. This is why exotic brands like Lamborghini and Ferrari have set rules regarding the resale of its cars, often requiring customers to sign a clause preventing them from reselling their cars within the first few years of ownership. Why? Ferrari wants to discourage people from buying their cars with the intent of flipping them for a profit. But not all cars are “collector gold” from birth, like the Prancing Horse or exotics like McLaren and Bugatti. In fact, some vintage cars have gone largely ignored and undervalued for decades before transforming into extremely valuable collector items. Perhaps, the industry rediscovered their historical significance or just plain nostalgia. Let’s note that “forgotten” is sometimes a matter of the era or audience, as some cars underappreciated in the United States might have been highly regarded in Europe at the time, or vice versa. That said, here are 13 “forgotten” vintage cars that turned into collectors gold.

Amazing Toyota GR Yaris GRMN timed on track and 0-60mph

Sell your car for free with Carwow: https://bit.ly/Sell-Your-Car-For-Free-3105 How’s THIS for a World Exclusive! Mat’s flown over to Japan, and he’s got his hands on every edition of GR Yaris ever made! But that’s not all, he’s going to be the first journalist EVER to take these cars around Toyota’s all-new test track! During this video, he’ll get his hands on the 1st generation, the Japan-exclusive GRMN, the 2nd generation (both manual & automatic), and the limited-edition Ojier & Rovanperä editions! So let’s take a look at how they compare. Starting with the 1st GR Yaris, it comes with a 1.6-litre 3-cylinder engine that produces 272hp and 370Nm. It’s equipped with a switchable four-wheel drive system and a 6-speed manual gearbox, and it truly is an affordable and incredible rally car for the road! Then we come to the GRMN edition. Only 500 were ever made, and while horsepower is the same, torque increases slightly to 390Nm. The car also comes with several other upgrades, including a carbon fibre wing and bonnet, a lower ride height, and a load of Alcantara on the inside! Then we come to the second generation. Power has been increased to 300hp and 400Nm, and it’s available either manually or automatically. It comes with stiffer suspension, a 20mm lower ride height than the gen one, and a set of digital dials. It also comes with a loftier price tag, starting at £40,000. And then finally we have the two limited-edition models, built with personal input from drivers from the Toyota Gazoo Racing WRC team. Both editions have exclusive paint jobs, improved rear wings, as well as drive mode settings personally chosen by the two drivers. Both cars are limited to just 200 editions each! It’s the video every GR Yaris fan has been waiting for, but which will Mat choose as his favourite? You’ll need to keep watching to see for yourself!
