I agree, a 3.2 will never truly be a collectible although they may become more valuable as more of them disappear. This assumes that gasoline remains available to power them.

Examples of collectible 911s are the 73 RS, and 959 which were produced in very limited quantities and are both unique and very desirable. A garden-variety 3.2 Carrera will never fall into that category.

Maybe an '87-'88 Club Sport could be collectible, as only 28 were made.
