You like the car, you like the price and you always wanted one. So what's the problem? Resale is a subjective thing as you know. Depends on how the car is at the point in time you want to sell. Personally, I always figure if I drive a new car off the lot it will lose 30% the first year.
Off the top of my head it looks like the car has taken a 25% hit. I find the depreciation factor less each year forward as expressed as a percentage.
But so much depends on when you trade it in. Some argue that you should hold a car for 3 years then trade to take advantage of the depreciation factor. you should be able to google this information I would think?
I hope this helps but its all just my personal observations over the years.
