When I bought mine I was worried about the same thing. Now that I own one, I think I was more worried about getting ripped off and losing half of my money on the car. While Bill is right about the investment thing, I think you are more worried about the goings on when its time to sell. If you buy a car that was made correctly, it doesnt matter which brand, you shouldn't lose too much on resale, and you may make some.

If you build it new, you WILL lose money. If you buy it 2nd......I'd say the range of potential loss is around 10,000/25% if you buy a SPF 2nd hand around 45,000.

BTW the price difference between new and used is not the same Tater.
