Evo IX's price drop?
I doubt the Evo will become a collectable but I doon't think the values will tank when the X comes out. The reasons being are that the X is very different from previous Evos and the engine does not have the proven track record of being able to deliver amazing HP and take large amounts of abuse. It will be like reinventing the the wheel in terms of tuning. Now if the the X is a real dissappointment to its target market and doesn't create a new market for itself, then then the earlier Evos might do better but don't count on it. The Supra and Porsche 993 are very unusual examples.
My guess is that it will depreciate just like the Evo VIII did and at the same rate and continue to do so.

it depends completely on how the 4B11 tunes. . .
the 4G63 with or without MIVEC, ESPECIALLY with the advent of the FP Green(20G9-LT, whatever you wanna call it), are easily putting down mid-to upper 300's awhp. . .and that's for less than $3k in mod's. . . NO TUNER CAR can do that right now. . .
Bear in mind Evo X mod prices will be high since most companies need to recoup R&D costs earlier in the development cycle, so demand for Evo 8/9's will be around until the Evo XI or XII come out. . .

I actually think that the IX's will hold value pretty well since they only made them one year and they are the only 4G63 Evo with Mivec and not to mention all the other features that were exclusive on the IX like the front end, Tail lights and Headlights and lets not forget the SE model.
