we're talking about slope people not aggregate price.

But the dealer gave me $15,500 on the SI, I bought it new for 15k.
But goes to show you there are cases of appreciation in value.

With the IX coming out everything changes so anyone who is partial to the VIII's body style will have to get an 05 if they want ACD and the upgraded turbo. Maybe our 05's will increase in value.
takes a **** then maybe they will be become a collector in 30 years. Thats a long time to wait.

The si is cheap to own and maintain, I think the high cost of maintaining the evo may be a negative factor in its resale value, in addition to mitsubishi's worsening reputation.

No it doesn't. I went to the bank for a motorcycle loan. I secured it with my car. That price they gave me as an asset value was $19xxx. That's TERRIBLE considering I bought the car 19 months ago.

Stock except for K&N panel filter and trunk debadging (both easily returned to stock form)
Any takers?
