    Bit of a controversial question....

    It may be a bit of a controversial question, but i was just wondering are EK9's worth the money thats being asked of them today, considering you can get an EP3 with 50-60k miles for pretty much the same money? And do they hold their value well over the years? is it difficult to sell them?
