Hello Veeky Forums!
For the past, meh, 12 years it's been a hobby of mine to comb through used cars for sale and try to pick out which will appreciate, keep, or depreciate in value. I've guessed a couple correctly and sold them at more than I paid.
Which cars do you think will do this within a (mostly) attainable scenario? I'll start.

I can't really see 996s depreciating any more while 986s appreciate

I'm strongly thinking about picking up a 986 S and keeping it as my fun car for 5-7 years... then hopefully flipping when they come back up. I cannot see them getting much cheaper

Which have you guessed correctly?
Also, I second the guess of the NA Miata because it will start getting hard to find a non-molested, non-rusted example.
The RX8 may turn around because of the rotary fanbase and the decreasing availabilty of earlier RX7s due to rust and age issues as well. This guess is a bit of a stretch though.

I love my 986, it's just slow because non-S
But that's nothing a 3.4l Carrera engine can't fix
i'd love to buy one but they're a bit much money and scary maintainence costs.
