I think that is true for the average run of the mill car, you know the ones that get the job done, but in the long term is forgettable. Take a name that has been around for a long time, the Corvette for instance. There are iterations of that car that are very desirable. Then there are some you can't give away. A friend recently picked up a Corvette in a horse trade thinking that he could turn it over for a modest profit. Very low miles and excellent condition, but in the end it was a break even proposition. However, it was part of a multi-vehicle trade and it got the deal done. The point is, if it was a Vette from another time, it would have been a keeper regardless of the style compared to the '23 Vette.
