Yes, will depreciate once the S58 G87 arrives since the G series M2 can do everything the CS does but better.

Heak even 991.1 GT3 RS depreciates here...used to be around AUD500k on the road here and now can be had for 350k second hand with a few thousand kilometers mileage. With 992 GT3 on the horizon the 991.2 GT3 already took a beating in the 2nd hand market.

Porsche's RS used to be the epitome of 'investment grade' GT cars (an RS is an RS) but since Porsche keeps rolling out generations of generations of GT cars out of the factory, the trend dies.

Many people just look at the production number of one generation and think that number seems low enough to be quite exclusive but one needs to look beyond that.

BMW is in the business of making money, rolling new and 'better' cars out of the factory generations after generations. They are not there to ensure the value of owner's car will beat inflation and is a better asset investment class than gold. Same with any car manufacturer.
