Future Collectibles
It's impossible to know which cars and trucks will stand out in the minds of collectors 10, 20, or even 30 years from the day they are first sold. But that doesn't mean experts can't make educated guesses. The crew at Hagerty have done just that, singling out 10 potentially collectible vehicles that you can buy brand-new today.
"All 10 have that ‘it’ factor that makes them stand out from the crowd,” said McKeel Hagerty, CEO of Hagerty. “In some cases it’s power, in some cases it’s innovation or drivability, but all of them have the qualities that define a future classic."
Without further ado, click on the image above to see which vehicles Hagerty says could be future classics.

It's hard to argue with this pick. This high-performance Italian sedan has drop-dead good looks to go along with a 505-horsepower bi-turbo V6 engine. It's not exactly cheap at $72,000, but it sure is fun to drive.

Audi TT-RS
The Audi TT has always been a looker, but it hasn't always been a particularly great performer. That's not the case with the latest TT-RS, which, for around $60,000, packs a 400-horsepower turbocharged engine capable of catapulting the little coupe to 60 miles per hour in just 3.7 seconds.Audi TT Information

Chevrolet Camaro ZL1
If you want the very best Camaro that money can buy, look no further than the $61,140 ZL1. With 650 horsepower and an equal amount of torque, the ZL1 is most definitely a muscle car. But it can handle too, setting a time at the famed Nurburgring race track in Germany of 7:29.6. Its top speed of around 200 miles per hour certainly doesn't hurt, either.Chevrolet Camaro Information

And now for something completely different. For right around $40,000, the Chevy Colorado ZR2 is a pickup truck designed to tackle the roughest terrain Planet Earth has to offer. Its biggest claim to fame may be its high-tech shock absorbers, which can also be found on world-class sports cars.

The second pickup truck on this list of future collectible cars is none other than the Ford Raptor. Now in its second generation, the Raptor is something of an off-road sports truck, with a powerful 450-horsepower twin-turbo V6 engine and suspension tuned to tackle the Baja 1000.
