While it would be nice to be able to choose from the listed cars, I think looking for a car to use and for an investment might be mutually exclusive objectives. This is not to say that the value could not go up, but use for events present risks. Maintenance cost for these cars used in anger could also cut into any value increase. If you can afford it and understand the risks, buy the car you have a passion for and enjoy it. If when it is time to move on, you have a gain, big plus.

It is generally a bad idea to view cars as an investment. It is at the high end where automotive art comes into play that you can start to talk about investment. I say this with the understanding there is a distinction between investing and speculation. Just look at some of the big winners at BJ every year. Not sure I understand the valuation system there.
