I think I will just hold onto till it starts appreciating, say 20 or 30 years. ^_^

In 20 year's time I see a future dominated by small petrol and hybrid cars. So yeah, I'd definitely keep the XR6T if they axe mainstream performance cars - even if I can only afford enough petrol to run it once a week.

The funny thing is that this chart shows year-to-year comparison. Think of the loss you get the minute you drive a brand new one off the lot? Yep, it's already dropped in value!

But as I've told a lot of people in RL and online, I didn't buy a falcon to retain value, and it would be dumb for anyone to do so. These cars are meant to be driven and enjoyed, and I honestly believe it'll last me 'til the last drop of petrol.

the best way if you want one of these is to put up as much as you can to start with :)

But as it been said, if your worried about resale don't buy one. I brought mine because they

are a weapon car :)

I got my BA II turbo for 39k new and sold it 3 years later for 21k

Yeah that really does suck, and no telling how things will go with this whole market slowdown since redbook of previous years never reflected any of that

I was deadset on a new FG turbo or F6 but realised I should just bite my tongue for a while and get something older (BA) to run around in while I build a house, then look at how the market is going again in a year's time. Could have picked up a mid 2007 BF2 turbo the other day for 18,900 (18s, prem sound, ZF) which scared me off the FG even more for now :(
