Notice how they kept the 2015 model and a non-touch version of the 13"? They are likely to scale back pricing somewhat with the next generation. It happened with the retina macbook pro, which also started off $400 above the previous generation and dropped by $200 a year later. In a year from now, depending on new model pricing, I suspect a used $2400 model at roughly a year old will drop to somewhere around $1800-2000, with $2000 being an assumption that they keep the current price schedule. It could be slightly better or it could be worse. Some people were surprised by how quickly the market value of their 2012 models dropped. Keep in mind that little things like battery service have become quite expensive. It was $200 for battery service with the last generation. I don't know whether this one will be another increase.
