I don't think that's relevant at all - yes, there are cars which do actually appreciate and you can make profit on them - I'd generously estimate that's like 0.0001% of all cars on the roads though.

Similarly, I'm sure there are houses which actually depreciate from the moment they are built - weird unusual houses with guaranteed structural issues the longer they stand, I'm reminded of a house mentioned on HN, which was built entirely underground and which started leaking everywhere after ~20 years. That house was basically worth maybe 1/10th of the original price because it was so hard to sell.
