ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- Today's automakers prize function over form, and there are few if any cars being made that will be "classics" in 50 years, comedian and car buff Tim Allen said.
"I'm passionate about automotive art, and there isn't any," he said.
Many enthusiasts argue classics are in the eyes of the keyholders, but Allen's not the only collector noticing history repeating itself.
Chevy's new Camaro, Ford's Mustang and even Mercedes' AMG Gullwing harken back to designs popular five decades ago.
"It's not an art piece, that Gullwing; it just reminds people my age, 'Oh, the Gullwing,' " Allen said.
The 56-year-old actor said he'd like to see more designs like the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO -- "the source of all cool cars" -- or the 1966 Shelby Mustang 350GT Hertz, which wasn't known for its handling.

Honestly I really hope not, I love some of the classics and which a few were brought back. I miss some, not all of course but some. And you know they do not make em like they usta!

Yeah, it's like they have no imagination anymore. It's just being recycled. I don't know if they don't want to try new things or if they just don't want to pay for new research.

I love many of the classics and most of the ones I liked back then are not ones I would drive right now. I am all for saving Mother Earth and all that jive, but recycled cars is a no no.
