Does the death of Ford cars in America make the FoST, FiST and RS future collectibles?

Once everything else is electric, yes. They’ll probably be worth a fortune.

I wouldn’t make it my 401k/RSP though.

If it goes the way of some of the famous rally hot hatches of the 80’s, I’ll be surprised. I suppose it is another motivation for me to keep mine in good shape. I won’t hold my breath on making any money on it in a distant future, even if hot pepper red is a rare color.

RS maybe, STs are going to be like a Civic Si. Clean STs could see original price in 20 years but RS will follow the Type R in value.

Eh, I don’t see it. It’s a fun car, but I wouldn’t really call them special.

I think the RS will be a classic, STs will be on NPOCP in 20 years as “the fast Fords that live under the RS’ shadow”.

I predict the FiST will be the 323 GTX of the future.

That depends.....are we talking stock ones? Because I could see stock ones being worth something. They are far too common though to ever be truly collectible

The RS? maybe; it depends on what is available in the future and how the head gasket/reliability stuff plays out. The ST twins? Nope; there just isn’t enough that is unique about them.
