I reckon the 86 will have pretty good resale value because...
1. In terms of natural competitors it's only one is the mx-5 which is priced ridiculously at $50k. 86 has more power and better fuel economy and is more practical (though it ain't a roadster).
2. It is in short supply - over the next 2.5 years Aus is getting 1500 + 1800 + 1200 = 4500 cars. Last year alone there were about 4000 Golf GTIs sold.
3. Given the waiting list and the positive reviews you know that there is going to be a strong demand for it until something new in the genre comes along.
4. Japanese reliability
If I was to sell my car in 1.5-2 years time - and I think I should be able to get a price maybe $1-2k lower than the equivalent brand new GT model.
