Could an example with 5k miles on it eventually sell for about the same price as new? Sure, but only in non-inflation corrected dollars. As with any car your best plan is surely to get out and drive the snot out of it, and with the 1er, we just have the side benefit of not seeing ourselves coming and going.

Yes but those cars are not very old. Give them 10-20 more years and we will start to see them becoming desirable. Cars go through a phase where they depreciate considerably and then start to work their way back up. No car becomes more valuable 5-15 years after production unless it is a speculator's dream like the Enzo, Veyron, etc.
