These Amazing Cars Actually Cost More Now Than When They Were New

The BMW 1 Series M was a bit of an oddball when it came out back in 2011. BMW couldn't call it the M1, because it already built a supercar by that name, and the M division didn't give it a bespoke S engine like all other M cars have. Some people criticized the 1M for not being special enough, but because BMW only built 6,309 examples (740 of which made it to the US), it has held its value extremely well. When it was new, the 1M had a base price of $47,000. We only found one car with 34,753 miles on it for less than the original MSRP.The rest are all more expensive than when they were new最昂贵的Certified-Pre -owned example costing almost $90,000.

It is no secret that limited edition versions of the Porsche 911 go up in value very quickly. Deliveries haven't even begun for the new 911 R and rich car flippers are already trying to get over $1 million on the resale market. Back in 2011, Porsche built a similar model called the 911 GT3 RS 4.0. This limited edition model had a six-speed manual transmission with a hand-built 4.0-liter flat-six sourced from a 911 race car. When it was new, the 4.0 was available for $185,950. Now, you can not find onefor less than a staggering$400,000. Automotive YouTuber Salomondrin just recently sold his 911 4.0 that he bought at sticker price. He obviously made a huge profit.

All Ferraris are special, but just like other expensive cars they tend to depreciate as soon as you drive them off the lot. That is unless you buy one of the really special models. If you were "privileged" enough to buy a 458 Speciale at its $291,744 base price,you definitely made your money back．最便宜的458 Speciale我们发现是399美元,900. We could only find one Speciale Aperta on for sale, and that is being offered for an insane $849,458. If you are in with Ferrari, you can quit your day job and just sell cars for a living.

The McLaren P1 is part of the hybrid hypercar trinity that also includes the Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari. All three cars have appreciated in value exponentially. The P1 was sold for $1.15 million when it was new. Only 375 were made, andwe could only find two for sale．Both examples that we found have asking prices of over $2.3 million. Just imagine buying a car and being able to sell it for double its value almost instantly. Of course the other cars in the holy trinity have awesome resale values as well, but the McLaren had the smallest production run, Porsche made 918 918 Spyders and Ferrari made 499 LaFerraris, so there's a chance that its exclusivity will push resale values even higher.
