If you think about it, they don't take all that much more work than a typical plastic kit, especially when it comes to detailing the dashboard, engine, etc. And yes, I think it will be worth it, especially since there are no other options out there: I wouldn't buy a resin Corolla or Impreza or something, since there are plastic options out there already.
And no, I don't 'plan' to sell it, nor do I want to, but if the value gets really high in the near future, I wouldn't be averse to it. The Metro and Skoda were really 'splurges' on my part, as while I have a TON of models, I bought the vast majority of them at about 50% of the normal price (Wal-Mart's $5.98 specials, clearance sales, eBay, swap meets, etc).
After the next swap meet in April (At the last one I got 12 or 13 models for about $90) I am cutting back on buying models for the rest of the summer. I want to get back into R/C cars more than in the past, and I also want to get working on finishing my basement so I have a space where I'm not afraid to work and possibly get messy (Right now I'm working in a spare bedroom with hardwood floors).
