calibra v6 a classic.. bets on ?

We are definitely at that threshold where a car either becomes a future classic or not now. Its getting very hard, but not impossible to find a good v6 for sale, and remaining turbos hold high prices mostly...which is a good sign it may be a classic.. it might just end up as the turbo only due to the 4WD. Depends on whether the calibras looks keep it classic.

my previous "sporty" cars are all now classic values at 3-8 times their drop out of the market price. (rx7 mk1, X19 1.3 lido, Sylvia turbo Mk1) ... That wee 1.3 fiat is worth about 5 grand if rust free...just because it has white seats, black paint and chrome bumpers :shock:

I'm really hoping so, got 3 turbos here, really want a Monaro, here's hoping one of them will buy me a Monaro in a few years!

im tempted to get a turbo, but i tend to crash them and dont fancy all the hassle with changing 4 tyres when one is flat.
