Historically significant cars are not very common. Sure, there is the first production model or last production model of a vehicle or a car featured in a popular movie, or even one that may have played a role in an epic battle or major event.
A car is a movable object, but a building or location is stationary, standing firm against time and resolute in its purpose. A home might be shelter to a legendary figure, a place to go to escape responsibility or reputation and let your guard down and be vulnerable. A structure might have been where world-changing events took place. If walls could talk.
