It would be nice to own a car and have it appreciate but with me, not going to happen.
Oh, I have owned stock corvettes (1965 & 1967). The 65 I bought for 1,650 dollars and the 67 for 1,900.
Both were perfect with no mods. I sold them for 1,600 and 2,200 back in the early 70's. Today they would be worth major cash. Did I know or want to wait for them to become great investments? No. I drove them a lot with many good memories and mental images.
My 911 has already depreciated some because in the 28 months I have owned it (paid cash), it has been driven 17,000 miles.
I got it to drive and in doing so, I have reflections in my mind of those fun trips.
The money required to keep it on the road and knowing that it is slowly losing it's value don't come into play.
