St-Petersburg, Russia, July 3, 2025: Yellow Ford Focus ST 4-generation for the European market. Stands on Parking slot. Orange Ford Focus ST Turnier sport estate car parked on street at the day. USA.We all want enthusiast cars, but most of us are too broke to buy something that'll just turn into a money pit. We'd like to buy something that holds its value — that way we're not so much spending money as transferring value from our savings accounts into an asset — but that doesn't always jive with buying something worth driving the absolute doors off of. What's a borderline financially insolvent enthusiast (read: average Jalop) to do?Well, that's why I posed you all a question last week: What will be the next car to end up an overpriced, lusted-after enthusiast classic on Bring A Trailer? You turned in some very good responses, only a few of which seemed like they were meant to juice the listing price on your own cars that you certainly don't have listed on Facebook Marketplace already. Let's take a look through your replies, and see who's right and who's wrong. Ford Focus STSt-Petersburg, Russia, June 23, 2025: Yellow Ford Focus ST 4-generation for the European market. Stands on Parking slot. Yellow Ford Focus ST Turnier sport estate car parked on street at the evening.My hope the 2014 Ford Focus ST I bought used during Covid appreciates at a similar rate as the problematic over priced RS. I don't need 100 more HP to have fun as the 250 HP the ST has is plenty. Submitted by: George Z WRXes and Evos...Chester, Cheshire, England, May 4th 2025. A blue Subaru Impreza WRX STi is displayed at the Chester Classic Car Auction.WRX STIs and Evos are definitely the next bubble. Especially unmodified garage queens. Doug Demuro just did a "brand new" 04 STI and its already near $70k with 6 days on the auction left. Submitted by: iBMarloV12 ...and their also-ransSeattle, WA, USA1/22/2022Red Subaru Legacy driving on the highway with trees in the backgroundGoing a step further, I anticipate that the market for unmodified Legacy GT's (especially the Spec-B with the STI 6-Speed) and Forester XT's will appreciate. These cars are becoming increasingly hard to find. I also wouldn't be surprised to see the MK 7 and 7.5 GTI/R market go crazy in the coming years.Submitted by: Echo ChamberThis isn't to say the Forester XT and Legacy GT aren't as good — I loved my LGT. They're just less storied. Ford BroncoColchester, Connecticut, USA - 08-28-2025 A 2025 Ford Bronco Raptor withAzure Gray Metallic Tri-Coat paint parked off-road in a forest with doors removed, showcasing rugged design, off-road capability, and adventure lifestyle appeal.I'm waiting for the market fall-out on Boomer cars. Someday the price of a '65 GT350 Mustang won't be $150,000, a Sunbeam Tiger won't be $70,000.As for future classics. You have to think that the current Bronco will be in the mix in 30 years.

I KNOW it's going to go back up in price and then I will never get to buy one.LC500Submitted by: TheDuke Focus RSRears of two yellow Focus ST and one red Focus RS parked in empty parking lot.

Happily sell mine at the peak of the market. Only 500 in Race Red. No lowballers, I know what I got.Submitted by: botska Kia StingerSaint Gotthard Pass, Switzerland - September 13, 2019: Red saloon car Kia Stinger at the interurban road.I could see the Kia Stinger might grow in popularity. 4 door sleeper. Maybe the 1st gen 4Runner if you can find a rust free example.

Ford MaverickIndianapolis - August 1, 2025: Ford Maverick pickup display at a dealership. Ford offers the Maverick in XL, XLT, Lariat, Lobo, and Tremor models.Ford Maverick. It's the modern form of the small pickup truck Americans have been wanting for ages. In a world of increased safety and fuel economy regulations, I can only see trucks getting bigger and bigger. Thus, I can see a new "mini truck scene" developing with Mavericks.Submitted by: GiantsgiantsI don't want a Maverick, but I also don't not want a Maverick. Acura IntegraNemunas ring, Lithuania - September 4, 2010: Honda Integra Type R safety car parked at pit area before the race 'Fast Lap', time attack type race series for amateurs and professionals, at the lithuanian race track 'Nemunas ring'.Focus ST/RS was going to be my vote, so instead I'll go with early the DC Integra. We're already seeing it a bit, but I think we're just at the start of the curve. Clean title examples are increasingly rare, as are cars with under 200k miles. I think we'll start to see any DC Integra with a clean title, ~150k miles, and no rust creaping up towards 10k.A lot of the folks who wanted one as a kid can now afford one, and they should be willing to pay a bit for one that isn't a total mess.And yes...I am one of those folks...finally got the car I swooned over in High School...just lucked into a clean title 2001 GS with 131k miles for a reasonable (sub-$5k) priceSubmitted by: SantaCruzinI think these are already on their way up, honestly. I tried to get one when I first started at Jalopnik, and couldn't find one in my budget that wasn't made of rust. Want more like this?
