Most of the loss lands early: the Monterey 218 SS Surf Package sheds about 7% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $92,068 it falls to around $60,212 by year five — a five-year loss near $31,856, about $17.46 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Monterey 218 SS Surf Package bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
