You would be forgiven if you didn’t really notice that pretty much every sports car from the 90s has gone up in value. It is 2020 after all, meaning they all qualify as potential classic cars (being over 20 years old), and some of them are perfect for your next restomod project.
It takes more than age to make a car a classic, but it only takes something desirable to make it increase in value, being rare for example can make a car desirable to some and therefore valuable. There may be some debate whether some cars on this will indeed become classics, but the one thing that is a relative certainty is they are getting more and more desirable.
10 Getting Expensive: 1995 BMW M3 - $20,000
Not long ago, the E36 was popularized because of its relative affordability, especially considering its phenomenal performance.
These days the performance doesn’t seem that incredible anymore, and prices for a good one (even more so for this Lightweight Edition) have gone up so much that you would be choosing it over some newer cars that will easily outstrip the old M car, and will be far more reliable to boot.
9 Out Of Reach: 1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E EVO2 - $145,000
Pretty much specifically built to take on the DTM (the old one, not the new one) and subsequently win it in 1992, this has a history, and certainly is a classic.
Paying six figures for what is essentially a modified executive sedan is maybe a step too far, no matter how cool it may be, or how rare it is. Engine swapped standard 190E anyone?
8 Getting Expensive: 1992 VW Golf MK2 GTi 16v - $5,000
This is a lot of money for a Golf. There is an endless aftermarket for these cars, but paying this much for it doesn’t really sit right with us, and they are not getting any cheaper.
If the MKI was the father of all hot-hatches that makes the 2nd generation the awkward child stuck in the shadow of their parent. It is a very good car, but not necessarily as good as the original, and not quite worth this kind of money in standard trim.
7 Out Of Reach: 1993 Lancia Delta Integrale Evo II - $44,000
Without a doubt the king of all hot-hatches. Over 200 horsepower sent through all four wheels, it has balance and poise in the corners and will put a smile on any living human's face.
It has unfortunately almost doubled in value over the past few years and has now really reached the point where it is pretty much out of reach. You would have to shell out more for this than some of the best 2020 has to offer.
6 Getting Expensive: 1995 Toyota MR2 - $9,000
The MR2 Turbo has already become quite valuable and even rarer. It isn’t really the best version though, the naturally aspirated version might be down on power but it still has enough power for a very small, lightweight mid-engine sports car.
It is well-made and very well-balanced, if you're willing to get over the fact that it is made in Japan rather than Europe, then this little car still presents itself as great value.
5 Out Of Reach: 1997 Acura Integra Type R - $35,000
For a car that was brought to the market to be a value for money sports car alternative, it is with a touch of irony that this has swelled in value so much it is now easily worth more than all its old competitors.
It is one of the best-handling front-wheel-drive cars ever made, period. It has also gained a cult-like following, making it one of the most valuable Japanese cars to come out of the 90s. If you don’t mind one in right-hand-drive, rather import the Honda version; it will be cheaper, and better.
4 Getting Expensive: 1993 Mazda RX7 - $30,000
Another very special car to come out of Japan. It is something of an enigma because as brilliant and different as it is, it will test owners to the very limits when it comes to reliability.
Mazda did their best to get these cars as reliable as possible, but it is for a very good and very simple reason that they didn’t sell in huge numbers. If you are able to wrench a bit, these are truly rewarding cars, even if hopelessly unreliable.
3 Out Of Reach: 1993 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo - $100,000
It is one of those strange occurrences where all of a sudden, after years of under-appreciation, the world unilaterally decided they all want one.
Unmolested manual cars are now coveted to such an extent you will need to shell out more money than you would for a better, faster, more reliable 2020 Supra.
2 Getting Expensive: 1995 Dodge Viper R/T 10 - $25,000
Not everyone will agree, but the 1996 Dodge Viper is the very pinnacle of all muscle cars ever made. Its brutal simplicity, leg scorching twin side exhausts, and lack of any form of creature comfort are the definition of pure muscle.
It is a beast of a car, with a huge V10 engine, manual gearbox, and a price tag still hovering around $25000.
1 Out Of Reach: 1995 Acura NSX - $80,000
It was admittedly a car that became a classic almost the day it left the factory. Honda was still heavily involved with F1 and had access to one Ayrton Senna for input in the development stages of the car (most especially regarding the chassis).
It was built as a budget supercar slayer, now it is just a supercar with a classic supercar price (which it quite frankly earned).
