2 comments:

1) the 07 lost around 20% when it left the forecourt

2) all S2000's may start to appreciate or at least stop depreciating so fast perhaps when it is discontinued. Question is when? Will an 08 drive off a forecourt?

I love the Honda but it is simply not special enough to stop depreciating
ever in my opinion. Few cars do.

Don't think about depreciation ...... !

If I added up what I have lost by trading nearly new cars over the years I could have no doubt bought something rather nice
