Don't kid yourself, its a mass produced econobox, take care of it, but also enjoy the shit out of it and if you're that attached to the platform just buy another in better shape when they depreciate to nothing. Wether you keep it in a bubble or not it will depreciate.

Most cars are not an investment, this car is nothing special, its a mass produced hunk of metal, you can get another. On its current path it will not see anything but significant depreciation, which is awesome. Can't wait till a parts car can be grabbed for little or nothing.

I can't believe you are calling the GT86 an 'econobox'
