Toyota Aurion 2016: Will resale be worse after Australian production finishes?

I'm considering buying a new Toyota Aurion AT-X at the discounted price being offered. I think the car is well engineered and reliable, but I am concerned with a report that Aurion production will cease as soon as Toyota Australia ceases manufacture in Australia and the resultant drop in resale value and the availability of parts in the future. Could you please comment?

It’s hard to know how the used car market will react to the end of production of the Aurion. I suspect that because we have known about the end of the Aurion for some time that it won’t have a huge effect, it has possibly already been factored into the market. I don’t expect the parts supply to be affected at all, after all Toyota is a massive company and has a good reputation for taking care of its cars and customers.
