35 years old to be classified as an "antique" in KS, which saves you from having to renew your tag every year. By the 20 year old standard, some first generation Miatas are already classics. Damn I'm getting old......

Buy a decent CRX Si - second generation - if you can - for under $5k - it will go up in value.
ABSOLUTELY! Take whatever generation is now in their 50s & 60s (have plenty of money, mid life crisis, getting the car that they've always wanted). Then look at the cars that were hot when they were kids and teens. Today it's the muscle cars of the 1960s and early 1970s, but the '80s stuff is already starting to creep upwards.
