Actually, the list ENDS. There are few modern cars that truly hold their value far better than most other modern cars. The Supra is old and a "collector" car and the Evo VIII is a relatively niche vehicle that's also relatively old. Cars still being produced (especially for under $50K) are rarely collectible and usually subject to standard depreciation.
The difference between strong resale and average resale is usually 5%, give or take. That's not THAT big a difference ($1000-$1500 on a $30K car).
If you want to know how much a car will probably retain compared to the competition, compare lease rates with its competitors. That will tell you what the manufacturer thinks its value will be in the near future.
