John. I need a catchy wrap shop name. I have the most experience wrapping on the e.coast, possibly the whole country. My 1st full wrap was in 1998 for Oakridge National Lab, an RV used to inspect airplane crashes.
I also have to add the McLaren Senna and P1 ! A lot of people who these cars mean something are not there yet to financially afford but hope they get the love they deserve
My number 10 would either be a Spyker or an Aston Martin 1-77. Some Diablos are really qiute cheap over here in Germany, for example a SV-R Strosek for €220k with a new clutch and just over 30 TKms
Manual V10s - either Gallardo or LP, but especially r8. Unbelievable you can still score these cars for this money. Also manual 456GT I think is also still at excellent value.
I think C4 corvettes in general are very undervalued in general, for two reasons. First, the C5. In my personal opinion, the C5 was the worst thing to happen to Corvettes because that was the generation that was bought by all the Boomer guys who fell in love with the C2 split windows and other stuff like that when they were kids, which is how the Corvette became associated with dads in golf polos, jean shorts, and white tennis shoes. This is not any inherent fault of the C5; whatever Corvette became in the mid-90s would suffer this fate, but it’s undeniable that the C5 Corvette is, for better or worse, the official car of tasteless Baby-Boomer-dom, and that has unfortunately rubbed off on all other Corvettes. Second: Certain aspects of the C4 are just terrible. The interior is a disaster. It’s the cheapest thing GM could throw together. The only saving grace is the instrument cluster on the early models, but those, in typical GM fashion, broke all the time. The low-speed driving experience was also awful. The throttle pedal was stiff, the front axle is fifteen feet ahead of you, it’s loud as hell, and the interior rattles and squeaks are almost as loud as the pickup truck engine they put in it. However, I say they’re undervalued because you cannot understand the C4 until you drive one on a back road, *HARD.* The C4 has no respect for you until you *beat* it. Then it comes absolutely alive. Those ridiculous overhangs front and rear? They conceal the track-to-wheelbase ratio of a go-kart. That pickup truck engine? *Bottomless* torque from idle. It has no subtlety to it at all, no finesse. You just throw it at the turns as hard as you can, and put your trust in Zora. And the design. I think the basic shape is a tour-de-force of mid-eighties futurism. Some of the details were not executed well (this is GM we’re talking about), but the fundamental design is, I believe, really stunning. It’s a little bit working class for this channel, but I think that’s the charm of it. It was designed *specifically* to be the monster that lurked in the rear-view mirror of Ferraris, Porsches, and so on, that they just couldn’t get away from, that any working guy could afford. In that respect, it did *exactly * what it was designed to do, and for that reason, I think it deserves more love than it gets.
I have a feeling that C6 ZR1 and GT350/GT350R will become valuable later on down the road, the C6 ZR1 was so mind blowing that you could get a 638hp and still beat out some super cars for half the money, the GT350 was groundbreaking that you could get a Flat Plane Crank V8 in a affordable package and a serious track car from the factory
@Bensmite Herro The Shelby GT350 stopped production for 2021. 350's received a 5.2L Voodoo Flat plane crank motor, Fords highest HP N/A engine, and a first and only for them. The new 500 didn't even get the flat plane. Also, manual transmission, lower production #'s (still quite a few, colors like Avalanche Grey or Leadfoot gray pull in more for resale). The C6 Z06 and ZR1's will also be valuable down the line. They are the reason dodge made the Hellcat, as well as the Shelby GT500. In my opinion, i would also add the S197 GT500's. Specifically the 2013-2014 years. 5.8L V8 with a 2.3L supercharger, tied to a manual transmission, carbon fiber driveshaft, etc. F'ing fantastic choice and already climbing in price now.
There's a Diablo that lives here in my home city of Geelong Australia. Identical model to the one Hoovie had except RHD.. Targa roof, metallic silver in colour. For the longest time, the Diablo has been what I'd call undervalued given it's pedigree. The owner has ridden out the depreciation and has kept it - it's now starting to go up in value.
Honestly, I think AC schnitzer M cars such as e28m5 -e36 m3 are extremely undervalued. With AC schnitzer being similar to what AMG pre merger was with exception to doing full motor swaps I think they are going to shoot up extremely fast here soon. Now along with that alpina variants pre e46 m3 so pre 2006 ish will follow a similar path if not climb higher. Thanks for the great video as always!
Between Hartge, ACS, G-Power, Hamann, Alpina etc. there's a lot to choose from. IMO Alpina will continue to be at the top just like Ruf is to Porsche, but there's definitely space for the others. My favorites from the others are Hartge and ACS.
@@jose7777777777777777 so funny story, When I was a kid, maybe 6-8 ish years old my dad was at the local home depo (Maine USA) and a guy had a black hammann e36 m3 coupe. My dad starts talking to the guy and turns out he bought it brand new when he was stationed in Germany (Military) and has a usdm spec car ordered so he could bring it home. He was actually thinking of selling it as he was getting shipped off to Afghanistan or Iraq can’t remember what war we where in at the time . My dad asked how much and the guy said 5k (this would’ve been 2008-9) my dad bought it and I used to get driven to school in it every once and a while. Made me fall In love with e36’s and have had 30-40 of them since in all varieties. I believe it might be one of sub 30 cars that are full catalog hammann cars in the us. Wish I could get my hands on it.
Im shocked you mentioned Callaway Corvette's! I thank you for that, they truly are under the radar. I will add though the C4 ZR-1 particularly the 1990 due to the last of the old front end and the 1995 for having the possibility to have a match set of Dunn cylinder heads. They made very little of the later year ZR-1's and made around 130 95's with a match set of Dunn cylinder heads. The C4 ZR-1 has countless speed records and one hell of a history around that. All C4 ZR-1's are factory widebody so they look sick! You pop the hood and your graced with the legendary LT-5 engine which looks amazing! Ooo ya its also one of the fastest cars of it time and best handling! Its stated that the LT-5 engine was "rated" at 405 hp in the later years but really im going to say its probably around 430-440 hp mainly because if its really "405 hp" that's the strongest "405 hp" i have ever felt. And sadly they too are under the radar being the Forgotten King. Yes i own a 1995 ZR-1 so im bias and for what i payed for the car i feel like i stole it from the guy. World beating car.
I would imagine the sledgehammer would be insane price in future. Millions? I feel like a lot of people don’t know about that sucker. Callaway is awesome! Nice meeting you, c4 owner:)
Definitely the Saleen S7 TT should be on the list. It is definitely one of the most exotic looking cars produced that will in my opinion, will remain timeless. It is also race proven with multiple championships (4 or 5 I believe) Often times, people tend to over look domestic cars and domestic tuner cars. I totally agree that the Calloway Corvettes should be there as well. The sledgehammer was an amazing car that is to this day, not very well known. They actually ran intercooler charge pipes through the corvettes frame rails due to the lack of space.
@@brendankoester5216 I can attest to the heavy clutch. We previously owned a C4 and went through numerous clutches as well (could have been as a result of my dad’s driving, not entirely sure). And I totally agree that it being American is another reason.
Although it already is a multimillion dollar car, my #10 has to be the Maserati MC12. I think this car should one day share similar values to the Mercedes CLK GTR, Porsche 911 GT1, and Mclaren F1. This car was one of the most dominant GT cars of all time and deserves more recognition.
997 GT2, then 997.2 GT2RS. The former, being built in smaller production numbers, but the rawness and the mystique preceded them, noting that later 997 GT3s and newer Porsche GT variants received more fanfare. I remember walking into Curated in October 2019 and seeing a white 997.2 GT2RS and being stunned, considering an Enzo was parked next to it
For my #10 spot I was thinking of some of the Vector cars, such as the W8. Low production and truly ahead of their time with styling that still looks amazing today
Certainly why I bought my Veyron this year:) I still think a P1 is half price. They’ve softened to $1.5m for a decent example. And they only made 375… 1/3 of the 918’s…
Those Callaway cars are insane. I had a c4 speedster posted on the wall in my Auto class in school. At first I had no clue what it was till I studied it and realized it was a corvette. Then I google how many they made and realized that I would never own one. Such incredible cars. Also love the viper but please don’t increase the price of those I’d love to own one.
You have about 1 year left to find a good Nissan R34 GTR Nismo VSpec Nur. Values are gonna be so insanely high for the next 40 years with rich guys wanting their childhood dream movie car AND video game car they were never able to purchase. It will be the next Ferrari 250 of our lifetime. Buying one now on the grey market for half a mill is peanuts what it will become.
The problem is that they're icon cars and that's about it. The best of the best R34's aren't special enough for settling for a lesser one to be that unfathomable. The richest people will buy the exact one they want for whatever they can get it for, or they'll get the next best one. And then when the people who had these as their poster cars die off or can't drive them anymore, there's not gonna be a second generation of enthusiasts passionate enough about them to keep the momentum going or even maintain values. The 250 GTO is as valuable as it is because its attached to one of the most important and famous brands (not just automotive) in the world, and it was the last true road-racer Ferrari ever built. Every example raced in the worlds most famous races and so many were driven by people with literal statues put up in their honour. It's absurd to compare the two as if any comparison of value (not necessarily monetary value) is anything but laughable.
The 2000's Vanquish is in my opinion the best looking Aston Martin to ever exist, and I know it's not the most desired model for collectors and enthusiasts, so I do believe it's really undervalued, which works for me, if I ever got the chance to find one to get.
@@elastiekeltjeshaar yes, but I do believe you can bring 2000s vanquish to Aston Martin and they updated it with 6 speed manual conversion, and upgraded infotainment. Mr jww has video on this. A 2000s vanquish updated by aston? That could be serious money in future I would think
@@jordonpumpin True that. Was thinking about it too but thought you then entered restomod territory. But I guess if you have it done by AM themselves it still appeals to purist (collectors)
Early diablos are undervalued IMO. They made a good amount of them but they're the most hardcore of the regular production versions and they can still be had for reasonable money in Europe.
M badge BMW cars from the 1980’s are starting to get crazy. Nobody talks about the Ferrari 288 GTO enough. Some Maserati are ready to jump in value too
Awesome video! You are spot on, and I love the variety you did here. #10 I think could maybe be one of these? Saleen s7 Detomaso mangusta (if detomaso continues w their brand and get up in the ranks?) Gallardo gated maybe Great video, would love to see Doug demuro and Ed bolian make a list lol
detomaso pantera gt5... underappreciated and undervalued, in my opinion. Interesting brand history and the car, despite being simple in an engineering sense, is absolutely gorgeous.
Love your video, could you please work on your audio levels, transition sound clips are wayyy to loud for your voice levels. Other than that I am really enjoying your content!
A bit different to the cars you discussed, but I’m always surprised that original GT40’s sell for a fraction of what the same era Ferrari race cars do.
The Mercedes SLR McLaren still blows my mind, barely hitting 300k here in Europe. I know it wasn't as great as the CGT or Enzo, but sheesh. That's base Aventador money.
Speaking of tuners - Lister-tuned Jaguars are super undervalued. They were the only rivals to AMG in terms of 4-seater cars in the late 80s/early 90s, with the 7.0 twin-supercharged 600 bhp Le Mans capable of reaching 200 mph at the top. Restored examples now still cost less than 100k USD (and tbh I hope it'll stay like that because I'd love to put my hands on one of them haha).
Great video, great picks. Whatever goes into the 10 slot, watch the prices jump. I remember Marty okobian (spelling) and Rick Cole doing this at Back Bay in Newport Beach and suddenly a car was worth a boat load. Remember grabbing 3 silver 60's vettes from a collection my friend (his dad Leo) bought and no sooner they jumped up massively..
Mclaren mp4 12 c people are starting to buy them again and the nostalgia is growning it was a lot of peoples first super car .. as well as the significance to the mclaren brand
I have to be honest! That was the best automotive exchange, I've ever heard!! My God, you make so much sense!!! I which you all the luck in the world....Look forward too more of your expert knowledge. "Tá súil agat go mbeidh cuma go deo ort". Which basically means "Hope you have endless luck"....
One car that I think should be on that list is the Maserati Shamal. Horsepower ranged from 326 to 350 plus depending on year from a twin turbo v8. There were only 369 Made only from 1990-1996. I am looking for one to add to my fleet. To my knowledge there are only 3 in the US as they were not sold here. They have been selling form $60,000 to $80,000 US dollars. I would like one but do not know the way to get one form overseas.
You could find someone to help you with bringing it in, but I'd warn you that Maserati doesn't have a great rep in Europe for quite good reason, they cost a LOT to run, more than Ferraris do typically. Quite special '80s cars sell for very little in Europe because of the maintenance and fragility of the engines and interior buttons etc, finding ones where everything works is impossible now. But here that is priced in, so they don't cost much typically for what they are.
I think the SLR Mercedes are still undervalued. Such an important car for such a small price tag still. It was a wall poster car for a generation that will be able to afford to spend they kind of $ soon.
Since I am driving one, I say the 996 GT3, which started the GT3 story and was closest to the racing cars. Also I think De Tomaso Pantera could be higher, but I know most of them are poor quality I guess the XJ220 is still not too expensive considering what it was in those days.
The market on the Diablo special variants is right around where it should be, especially when taking your comparison to the F40 and F50. At the end of the day, the Diablo special variants are Diablo's. The F40 and F50 are bespoke cars using bespoke chassis that are not based on regular variants. If anything, the F40 is still undervalued in my books. One of if not the best looking and most raw modern-ish Ferrari's ever produced. I believe the next big push in a few years will be high strung, high revving, naturally aspirated sport coupes and sedans like the E9X M3's and B7 RS4!
Ford gt 40 from 1966 is in my opinion one of the best if not the best car in the world, the history about this car is just incredible, like how they won from ferrari in the 1966 Le Mans. The output from this car is insane and dont forget about the sound it makes with the 4.9l V8 naturally aspirated.
My uncle has a 1963 Mercedes-Benz 190SL that he has owned since the early 80s. Insurance says it’s the last 190SL registered and still on the road. How do I help my uncle reach curated to possibly sell it? 190SL is red over tan and still has the factory hardtop option. I think this is the last truly beautiful Mercedes and the end of that era of Mercedes-Benz. Only 104 produced in 1963 and only 50 USA market.
The 612. Predecessor to the FF and GT4C Lusso. The 4 seater Probe looking Ferrari was the first one that really allowed you to M share the car with others. Undervalued for sure.
959 is my all time favorite an we'll it's gonna be tuff affording one in the future but for me that's the one ...so I'd say most undervalued car still out there not on list obtainable for the common man yet...I'd say...will be believe it or not the 90's era an 2000's era Mustang GT ,Boss,SVT , Cobra type cars . Super fast ,manual , handling was good on some an it's a dangerous car .
Mercedes SLR McLaren. Super Super underappreciated, considering the fact that it carry two of the biggest manufacturers names in racing and road production vehicles in it's name. I understand it is very expensive to maintain it but still under $500k I think it's quite underrated.
I don't have a car for the list but I just want to say I found you recently and I have been going back watching your videos and I absolutely love the way you talk about cars..I am very passionate about cars and I feel you have the same passion just alot more knowledge lol anyways keep up the great content
The car I think is vastly underappreciated is the 1st generation Tesla roadster. They keep getting destroyed by Tesla to fix other roadsters on the road and the production numbers were very low. It will be more of a status symbol for future EV collectors. 150-200k examples will soon reach a 800k-1million valuation.
Pretty much any Gayden era Aston Martin Vantage from about 2006 up to the redesign in 2019. These are some of the last naturally aspirated V8 and V12 exotic cars and they’re mostly available for a song when you consider you’re getting a hand built British exotic that was made in low numbers. Parts are pretty expensive, but mechanically they’ve proven to be very sound. Interiors are beautiful and you can get them for less than a boring Ford F150 off the lot. These hit bottom about two years ago. They probably won’t break records rocketing up in price, but they’re definitely on the way up and massively undervalued.
Without a doubt Mercedes SLR… look at the Porsche CGT and the Enzo. Those have tripled in value. The SLR is hardly above sticker so I think the special versions like the 722’s are going to be 2 million plus cars eventually
What are your thoughts on a 95 Ferrari 348(Spider)? I was headed to cruise this past Friday and peaked inside your showroom and seen so many pieces of art! Especially the red Diablo Roadster 🙂 Was thinking selling the Ferrari and buying a Diablo but the prices are higher now than pre pandemic 😞 Some day...
Reposting my reply to a comment. I think it will be an american car. Specifically the following: Shelby GT350/350R, Shelby GT500 (2013-2014), Corvette Z06 and ZR1's. The Shelby GT350 stopped production for 2021. 350's received a 5.2L Voodoo Flat plane crank motor, Fords highest HP N/A engine, and a first and only for them. The new 500 didn't even get the flat plane. Also, manual transmission, lower production #'s (still quite a few, colors like Avalanche Grey or Leadfoot gray pull in more for resale). The C6 Z06 and ZR1's will also be valuable down the line. They are the reason dodge made the Hellcat, as well as the Shelby GT500. In my opinion, the S197 GT500's the 2013-2014 years. 5.8L V8 with a 2.3L supercharger, tied to a manual transmission, carbon fiber driveshaft, etc. is a F'ing fantastic choice and already climbing in price now.
I remember seeing cars (mostly Porsches) tuned /modified by B+B back in the 80's. I haven't seen any in many years, and wonder what those bring these days, if any remain.
#10. Aston Martin DBS V12 manual. I see them appreciate a lot lately. The body styling is timeless, NA engine, RWD, MT... a classic. Bonus is that it is a true 007 car and I think the car is reasonably reliable and not as maintenance intensive as a F355. If you think the people born in the 90s were teens when the DBS came out, they will be in their forties by 2030 with a much better income so I do think they can do much better, all the more as 2030 will be the deadline to ban ICE in many countries so a lot of FOMO might fuel the prices.
I’d say Testarossas. I feel like many cars from that era have risen dramatically in value. But you can still get a Testarossa for the price of a F430 F1 gearbox
Totally agree with your list. But please don't boile prices for Carrera GT otherwise I'll can never afford it 😅 I think also undervalued is Ferrari 360 Challenge, 360 manual, 456 manual, f430 manual, Gallardo restyling manual, Morgan Aeromax, Wiesmann GT, TVR Tuscan and Sagaris, Porsche 996 GT2, BMW M5 E39
The 996 Porsche especially first generation. It has everything lined up for it, unique look deviating from usual 911 “look”, analog, naturally aspirated, and shares looks with the 911 GT1.
One very special one that gets ignored is the US spec 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB. There were only 126 US market GTBs for 1977 and this was the only year pre emissions in the US for these cars. So they came with the full power with the euro cams, no catalytic converters and the much prettier euro rear deck lid. These cars trade hands around $100k like the rest of the 2185 carbed GTBs but these 126 1977 cars were the best of the best without being choked by the emissions of the 1978 and later cars.
Just my view but I believe the DeTomaso Mangusta (1967 - 1971) is undervalued. The looks always were those wonder 1960's Italian design and mated with a potent engine [in period], only 401 made but less than 250 exist. They trade for under $400k (a few exceptions) which is cheap for a Modena, Italy made vintage exotic.
What's your #10? 👇
RWB porsche. Would that dude WideBody a Carrera? Has he?
John. I need a catchy wrap shop name. I have the most experience wrapping on the e.coast, possibly the whole country. My 1st full wrap was in 1998 for Oakridge National Lab, an RV used to inspect airplane crashes.
300SL or DB5. 2 of the most beautiful cars ever made. I expect these to be 8 figure cars in the future.
Has to be something you wouldn’t expect and that’s the E30 M3 !
I also have to add the McLaren Senna and P1 ! A lot of people who these cars mean something are not there yet to financially afford but hope they get the love they deserve
1st gen Audi R8 (Spyder) manual. Their aesthetics age so well imo
Same with the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. Such a timeless design and beauty.
@@markm0000 Couldn't agree more / great call
I think the R8 V10 coupe gated manual is only going to increase in value.
In that same vein, I thing the 1st Gen S6 with the V10, may be sought after. I know, I’d like one.
Would love to see a video like this for cars less than $150k maybe, either way loved this video!
My number 10 would either be a Spyker or an Aston Martin 1-77.
Some Diablos are really qiute cheap over here in Germany, for example a SV-R Strosek for €220k with a new clutch and just over 30 TKms
That's a steal!
Interested?
Manual V10s - either Gallardo or LP, but especially r8. Unbelievable you can still score these cars for this money. Also manual 456GT I think is also still at excellent value.
Incredible list! I’d like to see one with the cars that are perhaps under $150k
Coming soon!
I think the Lotus Esprit is undervalued.
lets keep it that way lol
I guess they are still relatively affordable, but definitely valued by real car people.
It is so cool to see a c4 corvette variant on this list!! I love Callaways and ZR-1s!!
Callaway did some epic things in that era!

I think the basic shape is a tour-de-force of mid-eighties futurism.

It’s a little bit working class for this channel, but I think that’s the charm of it.

Ooo ya its also one of the fastest cars of it time and best handling! Its stated that the LT-5 engine was "rated" at 405 hp in the later years but really im going to say its probably around 430-440 hp mainly because if its really "405 hp" that's the strongest "405 hp" i have ever felt. And sadly they too are under the radar being the Forgotten King.
Yes i own a 1995 ZR-1 so im bias and for what i payed for the car i feel like i stole it from the guy.
World beating car.
I would imagine the sledgehammer would be insane price in future. Millions? I feel like a lot of people don’t know about that sucker. Callaway is awesome! Nice meeting you, c4 owner:)
Totally agree, C4 ZR1 better than money in the bank! Great style, handling and power. Stealthy too. Am European and these are very rare here.

Definitely the Saleen S7 TT should be on the list. It is definitely one of the most exotic looking cars produced that will in my opinion, will remain timeless. It is also race proven with multiple championships (4 or 5 I believe) Often times, people tend to over look domestic cars and domestic tuner cars. I totally agree that the Calloway Corvettes should be there as well. The sledgehammer was an amazing car that is to this day, not very well known. They actually ran intercooler charge pipes through the corvettes frame rails due to the lack of space.
Reason it's not spoken on as much is bc of the heavy clutch and it being american
@@brendankoester5216 I can attest to the heavy clutch. We previously owned a C4 and went through numerous clutches as well (could have been as a result of my dad’s driving, not entirely sure). And I totally agree that it being American is another reason.
Although it already is a multimillion dollar car, my #10 has to be the Maserati MC12. I think this car should one day share similar values to the Mercedes CLK GTR, Porsche 911 GT1, and Mclaren F1. This car was one of the most dominant GT cars of all time and deserves more recognition.

I have a customer at my shop with a 2005 E55 AMG 5.5L Kompressor and it looks gorgeous and drives amazing. The power is ultra linear I love it.
Second gen ford lightings can be had around 10-15k for decent ones, extremely cheap for the value you get.
I think a Dauer 962 is somewhat overlooked, considering it’s a road-legal legend.
997 GT2, then 997.2 GT2RS. The former, being built in smaller production numbers, but the rawness and the mystique preceded them, noting that later 997 GT3s and newer Porsche GT variants received more fanfare. I remember walking into Curated in October 2019 and seeing a white 997.2 GT2RS and being stunned, considering an Enzo was parked next to it
For my #10 spot I was thinking of some of the Vector cars, such as the W8. Low production and truly ahead of their time with styling that still looks amazing today
Certainly why I bought my Veyron this year:) I still think a P1 is half price. They’ve softened to $1.5m for a decent example. And they only made 375… 1/3 of the 918’s…
What colour is your buggati 🌚
Do you play “Ace Hood - Bugatti” in your Veyron? If not, what music do you listen to? I don’t like rap at all but that song is meant for that car.
I believe Veyrons will hit 5mill by 2025. And yes the P1 may skyrocket in value especially once the successor hits the streets

I own several of these vehicles and 100% #10 is the XJ220. It has an amazing presence and it is an amazing driving experience unlike any other.
Which others do you have may I ask?
Agreed! The XJ220 is an incredible vehicle, and one that captures that era beautifully
Those Callaway cars are insane. I had a c4 speedster posted on the wall in my Auto class in school. At first I had no clue what it was till I studied it and realized it was a corvette. Then I google how many they made and realized that I would never own one. Such incredible cars. Also love the viper but please don’t increase the price of those I’d love to own one.

Right. An ACR Viper is on my list too, preferably before their values climb too high.
You have about 1 year left to find a good Nissan R34 GTR Nismo VSpec Nur. Values are gonna be so insanely high for the next 40 years with rich guys wanting their childhood dream movie car AND video game car they were never able to purchase. It will be the next Ferrari 250 of our lifetime. Buying one now on the grey market for half a mill is peanuts what it will become.
Those prices are already moving.. couple years ago
The problem is that they're icon cars and that's about it. The best of the best R34's aren't special enough for settling for a lesser one to be that unfathomable. The richest people will buy the exact one they want for whatever they can get it for, or they'll get the next best one. And then when the people who had these as their poster cars die off or can't drive them anymore, there's not gonna be a second generation of enthusiasts passionate enough about them to keep the momentum going or even maintain values. The 250 GTO is as valuable as it is because its attached to one of the most important and famous brands (not just automotive) in the world, and it was the last true road-racer Ferrari ever built. Every example raced in the worlds most famous races and so many were driven by people with literal statues put up in their honour. It's absurd to compare the two as if any comparison of value (not necessarily monetary value) is anything but laughable.
Time will tell who is right. Also I think you’re underestimating modern video game cars in your argument.
The 2000's Vanquish is in my opinion the best looking Aston Martin to ever exist, and I know it's not the most desired model for collectors and enthusiasts, so I do believe it's really undervalued, which works for me, if I ever got the chance to find one to get.
Hear hear. Comes with a dog of a gearbox tho, like really bad, according to pretty much everyone who owns/reviewed one
@@elastiekeltjeshaar yes, but I do believe you can bring 2000s vanquish to Aston Martin and they updated it with 6 speed manual conversion, and upgraded infotainment. Mr jww has video on this. A 2000s vanquish updated by aston? That could be serious money in future I would think
@@jordonpumpin True that. Was thinking about it too but thought you then entered restomod territory. But I guess if you have it done by AM themselves it still appeals to purist (collectors)
Early diablos are undervalued IMO. They made a good amount of them but they're the most hardcore of the regular production versions and they can still be had for reasonable money in Europe.
I do love Diablos!

A bit different to the cars you discussed, but I’m always surprised that original GT40’s sell for a fraction of what the same era Ferrari race cars do.
A historic icon! Definitely worthy of more attention than it gets
The Mercedes SLR McLaren still blows my mind, barely hitting 300k here in Europe. I know it wasn't as great as the CGT or Enzo, but sheesh. That's base Aventador money.
Definitely a car that deserves more respect!
Speaking of tuners - Lister-tuned Jaguars are super undervalued. They were the only rivals to AMG in terms of 4-seater cars in the late 80s/early 90s, with the 7.0 twin-supercharged 600 bhp Le Mans capable of reaching 200 mph at the top. Restored examples now still cost less than 100k USD (and tbh I hope it'll stay like that because I'd love to put my hands on one of them haha).

What do you think about the Gen 1 Gallardo Superleggara the are small numbers and somewhat hard to find a good one if any at all
Great video, great picks. Whatever goes into the 10 slot, watch the prices jump. I remember Marty okobian (spelling) and Rick Cole doing this at Back Bay in Newport Beach and suddenly a car was worth a boat load. Remember grabbing 3 silver 60's vettes from a collection my friend (his dad Leo) bought and no sooner they jumped up massively..
What about the vector. I would consider it the first modern American super. In the 80's as a kid, I met the founder at the auto show.
The problem with lesser known cars like that is not having enough demand to drive up prices.
The Vector is amazing at any price.

Wow, thank you!
One car that I think should be on that list is the Maserati Shamal. Horsepower ranged from 326 to 350 plus depending on year from a twin turbo v8. There were only 369 Made only from 1990-1996. I am looking for one to add to my fleet. To my knowledge there are only 3 in the US as they were not sold here. They have been selling form $60,000 to $80,000 US dollars. I would like one but do not know the way to get one form overseas.
You could find someone to help you with bringing it in, but I'd warn you that Maserati doesn't have a great rep in Europe for quite good reason, they cost a LOT to run, more than Ferraris do typically. Quite special '80s cars sell for very little in Europe because of the maintenance and fragility of the engines and interior buttons etc, finding ones where everything works is impossible now. But here that is priced in, so they don't cost much typically for what they are.
I think the SLR Mercedes are still undervalued. Such an important car for such a small price tag still. It was a wall poster car for a generation that will be able to afford to spend they kind of $ soon.
Good choice, I feel as though the emotional attachment for these cars are low, even if its a great car. maybe in like 4 to 5 years.
Definitely a legend!
Since I am driving one, I say the 996 GT3, which started the GT3 story and was closest to the racing cars.
Also I think De Tomaso Pantera could be higher, but I know most of them are poor quality
I guess the XJ220 is still not too expensive considering what it was in those days.
I also have a 996 GT3. It’s a hell of an animal. Love it to bits.
Thanks for this top10 shopping list 👍

Do you know what the number of Huracan Performantes were built?
Def the Countach.
Every guy in their 40s 50s 60s loved the Countach. Yes it has gone up but should be in the 3million dollar legue.
The market on the Diablo special variants is right around where it should be, especially when taking your comparison to the F40 and F50. At the end of the day, the Diablo special variants are Diablo's. The F40 and F50 are bespoke cars using bespoke chassis that are not based on regular variants. If anything, the F40 is still undervalued in my books. One of if not the best looking and most raw modern-ish Ferrari's ever produced.
I believe the next big push in a few years will be high strung, high revving, naturally aspirated sport coupes and sedans like the E9X M3's and B7 RS4!

Ford gt 40 from 1966 is in my opinion one of the best if not the best car in the world, the history about this car is just incredible, like how they won from ferrari in the 1966 Le Mans. The output from this car is insane and dont forget about the sound it makes with the 4.9l V8 naturally aspirated.
My uncle has a 1963 Mercedes-Benz 190SL that he has owned since the early 80s. Insurance says it’s the last 190SL registered and still on the road. How do I help my uncle reach curated to possibly sell it? 190SL is red over tan and still has the factory hardtop option. I think this is the last truly beautiful Mercedes and the end of that era of Mercedes-Benz. Only 104 produced in 1963 and only 50 USA market.
My undervalued predictions are the 997.1 GT2, 2012 Audi R8 GT, Acura NSX (01-05), 1998 Aston Martin V8 Vantage (V600) and any Gallardo with a manual.
Manual gallardos, manual R8s, 360 challenge, 430 scuderia, and in the hypercar market the 918.
The 612. Predecessor to the FF and GT4C Lusso. The 4 seater Probe looking Ferrari was the first one that really allowed you to M share the car with others. Undervalued for sure.

959 is my all time favorite an we'll it's gonna be tuff affording one in the future but for me that's the one ...so I'd say most undervalued car still out there not on list obtainable for the common man yet...I'd say...will be believe it or not the 90's era an 2000's era Mustang GT ,Boss,SVT , Cobra type cars . Super fast ,manual , handling was good on some an it's a dangerous car .
Speaking of special Diablo examples, how are the 6.0 SE cars doing in this market?
Mercedes SLR McLaren. Super Super underappreciated, considering the fact that it carry two of the biggest manufacturers names in racing and road production vehicles in it's name. I understand it is very expensive to maintain it but still under $500k I think it's quite underrated.
I don't have a car for the list but I just want to say I found you recently and I have been going back watching your videos and I absolutely love the way you talk about cars..I am very passionate about cars and I feel you have the same passion just alot more knowledge lol anyways keep up the great content
Welcome aboard! Thanks so much for the kind words
The car I think is vastly underappreciated is the 1st generation Tesla roadster. They keep getting destroyed by Tesla to fix other roadsters on the road and the production numbers were very low. It will be more of a status symbol for future EV collectors. 150-200k examples will soon reach a 800k-1million valuation.

997GT2 and 430 scuderia are def up there for me. Manuel Superleggera and SL65 BS are there to watch as well!
Pretty much any Gayden era Aston Martin Vantage from about 2006 up to the redesign in 2019. These are some of the last naturally aspirated V8 and V12 exotic cars and they’re mostly available for a song when you consider you’re getting a hand built British exotic that was made in low numbers. Parts are pretty expensive, but mechanically they’ve proven to be very sound. Interiors are beautiful and you can get them for less than a boring Ford F150 off the lot. These hit bottom about two years ago. They probably won’t break records rocketing up in price, but they’re definitely on the way up and massively undervalued.
Without a doubt Mercedes SLR… look at the Porsche CGT and the Enzo. Those have tripled in value. The SLR is hardly above sticker so I think the special versions like the 722’s are going to be 2 million plus cars eventually
Do we know how much the group 4 Alfa Romeo Montreal is worth?
Any special dodge viper
What are your thoughts on a 95 Ferrari 348(Spider)? I was headed to cruise this past Friday and peaked inside your showroom and seen so many pieces of art! Especially the red Diablo Roadster 🙂 Was thinking selling the Ferrari and buying a Diablo but the prices are higher now than pre pandemic 😞 Some day...
Reposting my reply to a comment.
I think it will be an american car. Specifically the following: Shelby GT350/350R, Shelby GT500 (2013-2014), Corvette Z06 and ZR1's.
The Shelby GT350 stopped production for 2021. 350's received a 5.2L Voodoo Flat plane crank motor, Fords highest HP N/A engine, and a first and only for them. The new 500 didn't even get the flat plane. Also, manual transmission, lower production #'s (still quite a few, colors like Avalanche Grey or Leadfoot gray pull in more for resale).
The C6 Z06 and ZR1's will also be valuable down the line. They are the reason dodge made the Hellcat, as well as the Shelby GT500.
In my opinion, the S197 GT500's the 2013-2014 years. 5.8L V8 with a 2.3L supercharger, tied to a manual transmission, carbon fiber driveshaft, etc. is a F'ing fantastic choice and already climbing in price now.
Thanx bro, just got out & bought these cars now. All set!

I remember seeing cars (mostly Porsches) tuned /modified by B+B back in the 80's. I haven't seen any in many years, and wonder what those bring these days, if any remain.
one of the most intriguing aspects of that tuning era... where did they all go?
Any Countach, it has to be the most photographed car ever built and they are the car that every kid in the 80 looked to as THE super car.

#10. Aston Martin DBS V12 manual. I see them appreciate a lot lately. The body styling is timeless, NA engine, RWD, MT... a classic. Bonus is that it is a true 007 car and I think the car is reasonably reliable and not as maintenance intensive as a F355. If you think the people born in the 90s were teens when the DBS came out, they will be in their forties by 2030 with a much better income so I do think they can do much better, all the more as 2030 will be the deadline to ban ICE in many countries so a lot of FOMO might fuel the prices.

TWR and Lister Jags. Way cool cars.

It's just like in the motorcycle market how the R6 and R1 are undervalued.
I’d say Testarossas. I feel like many cars from that era have risen dramatically in value. But you can still get a Testarossa for the price of a F430 F1 gearbox
Totally agree with your list.

One very special one that gets ignored is the US spec 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB. There were only 126 US market GTBs for 1977 and this was the only year pre emissions in the US for these cars. So they came with the full power with the euro cams, no catalytic converters and the much prettier euro rear deck lid. These cars trade hands around $100k like the rest of the 2185 carbed GTBs but these 126 1977 cars were the best of the best without being choked by the emissions of the 1978 and later cars.

what bout 2009 aston martin. DBS 6 speed manual v12
Just my view but I believe the DeTomaso Mangusta (1967 - 1971) is undervalued. The looks always were those wonder 1960's Italian design and mated with a potent engine [in period], only 401 made but less than 250 exist. They trade for under $400k (a few exceptions) which is cheap for a Modena, Italy made vintage exotic.
