Most of us probably got in to E30s in the second stage of parts supply (while the cars were cheap to own AND operate) and most of us will leave before the final stage. If we live long enough the cars will again be forgotten and become cheap again, but at that point all of the hot rod stuff is gone and we're too old to enjoy it properly anyway.
I really like E30s, but when the value proposition isn't there anymore I'll survive by running an E46 or E82 to fill that niche.

most sport-luxo models don't sell well here at all. there's enough to keep a few in the showroom but it's all suv that pays the bills. since few sell new it makes for a tight secondary market.
