When you get old enough, you start to see cars that were once common on the road of your youth become collectibles, chiefly because enough time has passed for people to covet them. For those who were kids in the 1980s, for example, the Oldsmobile Cutlass was the most popular model sold in the US in 1980, ’81, and ’83, so seeing them on the roads was a very common sight. Nowadays, you’d be lucky to see one or two a year from that era. They’ve also sharply increased in value over the past few years, to boot.
