i know i did great on all of my "fun" cars.

bought the 07 s2000 in 07 for 28,500. still worth 20-22k (30k miles)
bought 1M for $56 (msrp no markup) selling now for $57k (so basically just cost me tax, drove 13k miles)
Bought my 09 exige in 02/2012 for 50k. worth over 60k now (3k miles)

its actually cheaper to own/drive rarer cars than it is to buy a regular bmw.
