porsche 918 spyder investment?

I was wondering if one were to purchase a 918 spyder and store it away without ever driving it. Would you make any return if you were to sell it in say 5 years?

If it still ran in 5 years without being driven?.... probably not.

I was researching and found how the Ferrari Enzo was about 643,000 when it was new. Now it's worth almost 2 million. I would figure the porsche 918 would share similar chararistics in terms of investing.

The porsche is also faster so it's a better performer.

Oh yeah, faster always means better performer in all facets.
