these are all good points. another thing to consider is the requirements from your state for registering the vehicle. With the purchase of any new (unregistered) replica, you'll have to jump through some hoops to get it registered. The used (registered) cars have already been approved. Even when you consider the depreciation of a new SPF or previously purchased SPF, the decline is small. Also, I have heard that the roller will be due for a price increase at some point, and that's always going up anyways. I think the first SPF rollers were around 33k? but I am not certain. but if you buy used (now) and hold it for 2 years, make some upgrades/improvements, you won't lose much if anything.
