ClassicCars.com celebrated future collector cars with a show of their own Monday, January 16, set during Arizona Car Week atop a parking garage at the Scottsdale Quarter, an upscale shopping district.

More than 100 cars, produced from 1975 to 2017 model years, representing Asian, European, and domestic brands attended the show while bending of generations, from baby boomers to millennials and those in-between.

The featured marque this year was Ford.

“All of the cars that are now viewed as ‘classic’ were all just cars at one point,” said John Clor, enthusiast communications manager for Ford Performance.

“People collect with emotion and they save what pushes their buttons.”

Clor noted that several years ago, the general consensus was that Japanese cars would never be “collectible.” Yet the Datsun 240Z has become a cherished part of many collections and other formerly misfit cars, like the Honda S2000, are being restored on television shows such as Wheeler Dealers.

“We were so honored to be your featured marque because we can tell the show is based on passion, the love of cars, and we share that passion” Clor said.

As the show wound to a close, the vehicles circled down the parking structure’s ramps in something resembling a parade lap and dispersed upon exiting the structure.

Cars were judged by a panel led by Classic Car News East Coast editor Andy Reid, with fellow judges that regularly judge at events like the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance and Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance.
