Automakers spend millions of dollars researching consumer habits, developing cutting-edge technologies and features, and building new vehicles. But no number of focus groups or engineering hours can tell them if a car will be a success. It takes years or even decades to find out if it will become a collector car with a devoted following of enthusiastic owners. On this week’s episode of AutoHunter’s Drive the Bid Podcast, Diego Rosenberg and I discuss several low-production models that may just turn into collectibles, including the 1991-1992 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser station wagon, 2009 Pontiac Solstice coupe, and Blackwing V8-powered 2019-2020 Cadillac CT6-V.
We also cover the news about the refreshed 2025 Volkswagen Jetta and GLI, which hit dealers at the end of Q3.
After that, we both get a chuckle out of a meme made about Volkswagen Italia’s unfortunate Instagram handle. It really shows the importance of a strategically placed underscore or dash…
To end the episode, Diego and I profile our favorite cars currently available on AutoHunter. He’s a fan of a 1968 Oldsmobile 4-4-2 with a 455 under the hood and a 1961 Chevrolet Bel Air that has an upgraded 409ci V8 connected to a four-speed manual gearbox.
I can’t help but go on about a 1977 Jeep CJ7 that’s equipped with a 350ci V8 crate engine, a six-inch lift, and 35-inch tires, as well as an Estoril Blue Metallic 1999 BMW M3 convertible with 51,491 miles on it.
