just bought one...picking it up on saturday.....i am buying from a main dealer....2 things worried me..1. depreciation..if we really are going into a proper recession the resale will be horrible..there are a few arround that are eating up people's balance sheets so you can be a bit cheeky...2. the new cars now come with a 3yr factory warranty...an 07/06 are only 2 yr...so if it will be out of warranty 2 weeks after you buy it then it will affect the resale......get as many extras as possible..egear/transparent engine cover/carbon interior/ceramis brakes etc....good luck.
