It's a cheap (yet a bit overpriced) fun car, which is fantastic. It isn't a cayman or 911 or even a lotus. You aren't the only person in their 30s here. Relative to its segment it's no less of an econobox than a miata.

You'll enjoy it more when you realize wether you keep it in a bubble or not it will depreciate. Your time capsule example will absolutely be worth more down the road, but the number isn't going to be thousands unless this car becomes a legit collectible. Between now and then there will be depreciation. Just like stocks, buy on the dip.

It's a very good car if it fits your needs, but it is just a car, thousands just like it roll off the assembly line every year.

I'll enjoy the piss out of mine and years down the road if I need another I'll find a babied one cheap from someone swallowing a pill of reality and mass produced cars.
