Have you priced a classic Mercedes E-class lately? Allow me to help. https://www.classicdriver.com/en/cars/mercedes-benz/ponton-1...

What exactly is your point here? The E-class didn't get better. Its worth increased, and there is no guarantee that would continue for today's new models seeing as their depreciation (as with most luxury brand models) is pathetic.

This statement doesn't compute for me.

The actual car is the same. Tesla cars get upgrades and new features after purchase.

They could also brick it remotely, or introduce a bug in the autopilot and plow you into a barrier: You might not want the upgrades

Ok, but if the E Class worth went up, you can't really say that's a bad deal...

They're classic cars from the 1950s kept shining and running. Not only did keeping them that way probably cost quite a bit, as I'd bet an E Class sold today won't have the same appeal sixty years from now as these do today.
