I have to believe at some point the aftermarket will see a value in making upgraded battery packs and software hacks or programming to use them. Even just gutting the factory controls and going full custom it would seem a once electric car is a better starting point then say a Metro or a Mirage. It seems the compliance cars fall sort of into the problem of say a C5 Corvette. Too new to be collectible, too old to be desirable. The EVs are too new to have aftermarket, but too old already compared to the new models to be desirable. That makes them both a great value in my book.
