Unless car ownership continues to decline.  It might be the only part of your purchase that depreciates.

Maybe?  I'd wager people that can afford one of these Condo's in the next 5-10 years can also afford a car and want a spot to park it.  Or by then, these coveted parking spots can become bike racks and everything would also be fine
