If I were ever to make cars an investment (and I won't), I've always felt you should aim for the "cool" cars that guys in their late 40's/50's/60's wanted when they were in highschool.
For a long time it was the muscle cars from the 60's and 70's, now it seems to be the BMW M cars and Porsches from the 80's/90's.
The big question is will it continue? Seems like kids in high school since the turn of the century don't seem to care much about cars other than getting them from A to B.
