SL/R230: Resale on SL600

Resale on SL600
Looking at a 2004 SL600, but am a bit disuaded by the previous SL600's resale performance. For example the 2002 SL600's MSRP was at $128K, but can be picked up for $40-50K today. Was also looking at a 2001 360 Spider (MSRP in 2001 = $165K, used ones are going for $190K today).
Any thought about how the new design will hold its value? Any input on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I was told by one of the sales guys that they're also soft because the 600 buyer wants a new car and those who would normally by a used vehicle are afraid of maintenance cost on the 12 cylinder. Who wants to be caught without a warranty?
