Trying to figure out what will be remembered in the future is a tough thing to do.  What is popular now may merely be a speck of a memory come a decade or more down the road.  Think of Oscar winners of the past, there are many that won ‘Best Picture’ but are vaguely remembered today.  So as far as cars are concerned, what will be a collectible in the future?  The National Automotive History Collection (NAHC) thinks they know what it will be, and they chose the SRT Viper as its ‘Collectible Car of the Future.’

This is something the group does on an annual basis.  They choose a vehicle built in the US that were put out in the previous calendar year.  Out of 19 all-new vehicles to choose from in 2013, the SRT Viper won out.

According to Charles K. Hyde, president of the NAHC Board of Trustees, “We ask our members to predict which of the year’s new vehicles will command the highest attention at Detroit’s famous Woodward Dream Cruise 25 years from now.  Car enthusiast select this award, making it unique among vehicle-of-the-year awards.”

This is now the third time that the Viper has been awarded this from NAHC.  The NAHC is the world’s largest public archive of automotive information.
