It's normal (and understandable) to think about depreciation when making a large purchase, but it shouldn't be the primary factor.

Hate to break it to you but all modern cars will depreciate. There's too many of them out there and nothing is going to appreciate (unless we're talking something like a 918, La Ferrari, etc. but alas we are not).

Go into it thinking "which of these cars would I be happy holding onto for 5-10 years"..."which will be more special than the new stuff all these manufactures are churning out in mass numbers". Anything NA and Manual is probably a good bet and some awesome cars were listed. I'd try to reach and get a 991.2 manual GT3 if possible, but you have a lot of other great options out there.

My philosophy on cars is you have to be OK with them hitting $0 one day. All it takes is the economy taking a terrible turn, maybe you get into an accident and diminished value crushes you. etc.
