It's not speculation. I'm talking about the addressable market. Not the resale value.

Just about anyone and the significant other can sit in the regular seats. The set of people who themselves with their SOs can fit into the carbon bucket seats is a proper subset of the people who can buy and comfortably use a car with the regular seats.

This is quite evident right in the new owner market. There's no reason to believe that the distribution of the population in the resale market would be different in any statistically significant way.
