Very, very few cars are any kind of good investment due to plain depreciation and market fickleness. As unique as the VX is, it isn't an SS 100 or Fiat 8V. It'll end up about as collectible as a Corolla FX16 or Mazda 323GTX. I picked my second VX up for all of $9000 in January of 2004 and it's in outstanding condition other than some minor rock chips touched up around the hood and a near invisible crease over the spare tire. So, like just about any Isuzu, it's an outstanding value for the money and you just happen to get the bonus of daily gawking from the general public.
