I'm glad you're happy with your purchase, and I don't blame you for convincing yourself of the high value and that you'll never sell it. These cars are expensive for what they are.
I've driven the Z8 (one of my former bosses had one). I prefer the 1M.

There are at least 10 cars around that price range I would buy before the Z8.

Also, if you think people are buying the 1M for prestige, you're not getting the point.



p.s. I have no skin in this game at all. Not planning to sell and don't care if the car is worth 10k or 100k in 10 years. I've had people approach me wanting to buy the car from me though and I can tell you that those who are genuinely interested in buying this car and have the means to do so, don't consider the market to be over-inflated.
