What are the chances this F-Type, due to its performance and beauty, could be deemed one of the classics of our day and would still have appeal down the road?

Could this car be one that increases in value over time?

Cars aren't handbuilt anymore like the DB6 or even say an original 240Z but where do you see the F-Type say 30 years down the road?

 

Hard to say - a lot of it has to do with emotional attachment and the vehicle has to be both visually appealing and be able to perform.

I have a 1965 Corvette Convertible in storage that was purchased 20 years ago, it's gone up significantly in value since then and quite a bit since it left the showroom floor in 1965. A lot of it also has to do with the following. Corvette owners are cult like, especially the older ones.

 

Yea Vettes are a bad example. F-Types can never be a part of America's culture like the Vette or Mustang which is why I mentioned a 240Z or say a Triumph TR-6 or Sunbeam Tiger., a BMW 2002 or dare I say a Jag E-Type!. These are foreign cars that appeal simply by their sporting heritage, not because of movie iconism or other auras that are hard to put your finger on. Americana has to be taken out of the equation in the case of an F-Type to get a true feel. I can say that the cars inherent beauty certainly has the potential to stand the test of time. No matter where the shape of the car moves to in the next few decades, I would find it hard to believe that the F-Type could ever look dated. Thats a huge part of determining a classic. Driving an F 30 years down the road will surely get a thumbs up from passer-by's.
