Get your facts straight.

A current model used BRZ is worth less than my (now) 6 year old s2000. There must be a reason why the S2000 is holding value.
Yeah, read further where I said $38K. Oh sorry, $38K is sooo far off 37.9k. Which both to me is basically a $40K car. Straight enough for me.

Yeah, the reason is called economics, supply and demand. 86 is current production and produced sold at a higher rate than the S2000 ever knew. Performance has very little to do w/ that. The 86 has sold almost 30,000 units it's first year which is almost half what the S2000 did in 10 years.

Of course, you've compared the S2K w/ a wing to the 86 w/ aero right? The Griffon seems to respond well to aero on the stock motor. I'm not sure how valuable comparing a stock car to one with aero add-ons is.
