Default Question about future values

Hi all - I am looking to purchase an RC-F or GS-F. In your estimation as owners, would a low mileage RC-F retain its value as well as a GS-F if driven sparingly? These cars are true gems.
Thanks for any feedback.

It probably will not hold its value as well as the GS F due to the volume of production. There are simply far fewer GSFs on the market compared to RC F. Also the GS F is generally regarded as the better car dynamically not to mention the practicality advantage. I love my RC F and I do expect it to retain its value better than most other cars, but I also think the GS F will be a little better in terms of holding its value. That’s just my opinion though, I could, and wouldn’t mind being wrong.

Production numbers:

RC-F (per the RC-F group)
2015 - 2,251
2016 - 1,195
2017 - 670
2018 - 352
2019 - 325
2020 - 293


GS-F (per the GS-F group)
2016 - 1,418
2017 – 482
2018 – 294
2019 – 163
2020 – 127


GS-F's seem to hold their value a bit better, there's simply less of them and 0 more will ever get made. That said, there aren't exactly a lot of RC-Fs either and after I believe 2023, 0 RC-Fs will be made.
I would get whichever one you want; they both hold their value really well.
They are a soon to be dead breed with everything going electric and will retain their value as such. IMO
