A youngtimer is a car that is not yet old enough to be considered an oldtimer (classic car), but it has reached a certain age and is desirable among collectors and enthusiasts. Although there is no fixed definition for what constitutes a youngtimer, they are generally considered to be cars that are at least 20 years old but not yet 30 years old. Oldtimers, on the other hand, are typically vehicles that are over 30 years old and in their original condition. Antique cars need to be at least 45 years old, although this can vary from country to country. Pre-war cars cover the years from 1919 to 1930. 
 
Such cars are very popular in Europe and North America. Since they are considered collector's items, insurance premiums are usually lower compared to modern cars, even though they can be more dangerous to drive. 
 
High return potential 
Automotive investments have achieved an average annual value appreciation of over 11% over the past 10 years. 
 
Rarity 
In the past, these cars, which are now in great demand, were built very little. For example, only 1400 examples of the legendary 300sl Gullwing were built. 
 
Market Growth 
Statista estimates the global classic car market revenue to be 30.9 billion U.S. dollars and its expected growth to be 8.8 percent annually until 2024.

As the legendary Ferrari 308 approached its 10th anniversary in the mid-'80s, it was time for a new model. However, Ferrari chose to revamp its entry-level model and renamed it the 328. 
 
Performance Enhancement 
A series of incremental improvements addressed some of the weaknesses of the 308, and the larger 3.2-liter V8 engine now delivered 270 horsepower. This increase in power allowed for a 5.5-second 0 to 60 mph acceleration and a top speed of 166 mph. Suspension enhancements were made, and ABS was introduced in the 1988 model year. 
 
External Improvements 
The 328 featured integrated front bumpers and headlights, along with subtle differences in wheel designs - concave for pre-ABS models and convex for the final production cars. Both designs are undoubtedly impressive. 
 
Interior Comfort 
Inside, the 328 retained the Momo steering wheel and Veglia gauges. Changes included relocating the handbrake lever to the center console and replacing toggle switches with more modern controls. However, the standout feature remained the 5-speed gated manual shifter, which now offered smoother shifts thanks to a hydraulically operated clutch. 
 
Variety of Versions 
Ferrari offered both GTB and GTS variants, with the GTS outselling the coupe by a factor of five to one. The GTS featured a removable roof section, while European-spec GTBs had a dry sump system. 
 
Proven Reliability 
Being a development of a design that first saw the light of day in 1973, the 3.2-liter V8 engines are known for their reliability. Upgrades over the first 2.9-liter units included electronic fuel injection and multi-valve heads.

In the automotive sector, only a few names carry such weight and heritage. The true legend Enzo Ferrari founded the company in 1939. Although the company started developing racing vehicles in 1940, it wasn't until 1947 that a vehicle with the Ferrari emblem was introduced. 
 
Ferrari can also refer to an extensive motorsport tradition, as the company has been active in the sport of Formula 1 since its inception.

Track Record

The mission at TheCarCrowdis to give investors across the globe the opportunity to invest in one of theWorld’s fastest appreciating asset classes.

Investment in classic cars is an effective way of diversifying a portfolio, indicated by fact that 81% of ultra HNWs have at least 1 alternative asset such as classic cars within theirportfolio. The Knight frank 2023 index shows that classic cars have appreciated 185% in the last decade and 25% in the last year. In the last 10 years, only beaten by rare whiskey; classic cars are consistently in the top 2 highest performing luxury asset classes. 
 
However classic cars as an asset class is not as widely adopted as it should beas a diversification technique. Only 13% of mass affluent investors (mainstream) have any form of classic car investment in their portfolio due to the perceived high barriers to entry including:

<ul>
	<li>Lack of awareness of the category,</li>
	<li>Skill and experience in selecting the right asset,</li>
	<li>Access to acquire the right assets,</li>
	<li>Space to store, experience and resources to maintain the vehicle,</li>
	<li>Capital available to buy the whole car,</li>
	<li>Lack of awareness of regulated platforms to enable fractional investment.</li>
</ul>

But the business case for this asset class is proven. The mission at TheCarCrowd is to give investors across the globe the opportunity to invest in one of the World’s fastest appreciating asset classes. 
 
TheCarCrowd is enabling investors to diversity within the category with cars from the 1960s classics to modern day supercars. 
 
With some vehicles achieving more than 38% in a single year and 20% acrossthe portfolio, TheCarCrowd has&nbsp;been able to give investors strong returns so far from afully asset backed investment.
