I don't get it. They seem the sort of thing (being solidly made and all) that would retain its value like any quality piece of high end audio gear. If you like "upgrading" your camera every couple years or whatever then I suppose you'd have a point; if your implication were true. Which I see no evidence of.
When I think investment, I think long term (like 10, 20, 30 years) reliability, which is where my interest in current cameras just sort of drops dead, along with their auto-focus, and silly shutter release buttons that you have to press twice.
