I’ve lived through this first hand with Harley Davidson. 20 years ago the dealers were getting $1000’s over sticker. Today? They still demand sticker which is exactly why they can’t sell a new bike anymore. The used market is flooded with “brand new” bikes posers bought thinking they were gonna leave it in the garage for a couple of years and flip it for a profit.

You're not factoring out why hes in this state of rationalization. He makes part of his living vlogging cars. In his thought process hes making legitimate points. Long term pushing a Supra till next june or October give or take. With the Supra being close in price to a vette. How will the corvette affect the Supras existence. Is it better to wait or go ahead and buy. He can buy a Supra today. He speaks for as niche group of people but it's a relevant group that are the first reviewers and more affluent enthusiasts. Theres still stuff to learn here.

Most people don’t part time vlog. My point stands. If you can’t afford the depreciation, you can’t afford the car.

I’ve never seen a reviewer in Car and Driver complain about not being able to review a car because of “depreciation”.
