If I sell my Superformance for what I paid for it, like you say - not a good investment. I know how to do better. But that's pretty good for a car.

I bought used because I didn't want to "invest" in new. Didn't want that much $ tied up in it. Also, the used car gives me a better chance to not lose anything if I sell.

For me the interesting question is - Would I have bought my used Superformance if I knew it would depreciate like most cars. ie - be worth nothing in a few years. I don't know. Maybe not.
