In India they call these Rickshaws.

New cars... Hard to say. But I predict that 80's and 90's rice rockets will see a jump in value as the current tuner crowd hits their 40's and 50's, same way muscle cars saw a jump. Amongst these the Supra, of course, will be king but I wouldn't discount the S2000 or Mitsubishi 3000gt.
