Per VINdown's modeling, the Kawasaki STX 160X retains an estimated 69% of its value after five years, ranking #2073 of 5780 boats we track. That is roughly in line with the 70% five-year average for PWC in its class.

Most of the loss lands early: the Kawasaki STX 160X sheds about 5% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $12,411 it falls to around $9,590 by year five — a five-year loss near $2,821, about $1.55 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Kawasaki STX 160X bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
