Agreed. I have not seen one in I don't know how long.
Even when I had it there were few around. I liked Toyotas and it was "kind" of sporty. I would not have expected them to become collectable just like my '71 Toyota pickup I used to own. Some vehicles just fade away but some are desirable for some reason. And I think some collectors are speculating. I guess I will need to add it to my vehicle list.

I look up the KBB values of my cars on the anniversaries of their purchase. My 2007 Chevy Cobalt SS has occasionally gone up in value a few hundred dollars from the previous year. It's not because of any collectability, though. There's a shortage of used cars now, especially cheap ones.
