Just wondering what peoples are thoughts are on the matter. I'm talking about cars that can be owned for 6-12 months with virtually no depreciation. In the last few years I've seen this happen for the M5, M3, SL55 AMG. The period of zero depreciation does vary ie for the M3 was very short lived. Any thoughts?
ps I'm talking cars under £75k so no Enzos etc

BMW Has a waiting list for the new X3 Deep .
I think a 6 mth old one will be good for the same money paid new!!!!
Sporty........Maybe a Turbo Cabriolet 996

Not sure if it'll be the "next car" but the new Boxster Coupe if launched will attract a premium.
Did I mention my name is on the list @ Silverstone Porsche

Porsche Carrera GT or the Ford GT40 - given the ltd numbers, I reckon you couldn't lose. The problem is getting hold of one in the first place

Unfortunately none of the ones I can afford ie Mini/X3/Boxster/SLK are really my cup of tea. I d'ont think any Impreza will really hold value anymore the mystique has long gone. As for the 996 Turbo Cab/ GT/ GT40 well and truly out of my league even if they would sell me one.
Anyway I'm off for some Xmas lunch, I hope you all enjoy yours and I look forward to another year of petrolhead banter.
