Default A "classic"?

Well, I been pretty well off lately, and I was thinking about selling the ole Rex. (and buying a prelude ) Then I asked myself "Cody, if you leave that CRX in the garage for about 25 years and let it collect dust, will it be concidered a 'Classic Car"? I've been pondering this for a couple of minutes now.

Keep the CRX if you can. I would love to have one as a project car. They will be classics. Just wait a while.

I am keeping my car forever as I want it to be a classic. I want people to look back at it today as we look at Muscle Cars and imagine how badass it was.

I was once told that when a car reaches 25 years old it is considered an Antique...no idea if this is T/F but hey, if it's true...then I only have twelve years to go and my 4th Gen (90) Civic HB...is an antique. It is a bit of a collectors item already because it was manufactured in Canada, not Japan or the US.
Jaje: I agree on the mileage thing...hey did you hear that GM is about to start buying engines from Honda next year!
GotRice_B16a: I got my Civic for $1,200 CAN...I've seen CRX's around here go for under 2K CAN as well...
On a side note...anyone know how many Canadian 90 CivHB's were manufactured?
