What I see in the 1M is a car that has a slower depreciating effect on it's market value, nothing more. There are 300+ on our little island, they are not that special!! (if they stuck with the original plan of 100 then maybe they would have been more special)
Our car sold (as I have said a few times now) for $92k versus a buy @ $110k, 83% retained value over 18 months AND she had 24,000 k's on her, not bad IMO!!!
footnote:
my cayman R had a 86% retained value, surprisingly better than the 1M, go figure.

Simple mate. There are probably 30 Cayman R's in this country.
