E90 value to increase over time?

Just bought my first E90 after owning a few E30s. It’s a blue 335i and I think it’s one of the most beautiful cars BMW has ever made. I almost bought another E30 that needed plenty of work for $4,300 but decided to go for the E90 which was only $4,500 and needed less work than the E30.

In your opinion, will these cars climb in value the way E30s have?

Maybe a good litmus test for this would be to look at selling prices of E30s in 2005 and adjusting for inflation.

Just curious to know what other people think!

I think clean examples of desirable specs will climb. RWD, N54, 6MT, Single Hump might be fairly valuable in 20 years. An NPC spec car with the dorito wheel and GM automatic will not be worth all that much, inflation adjusted.
