When does a pre-owned vehicle lose value?

I'm looking to purchase a 2006 VW Passat 2.0T Sedan and it costs $8,749 with 99,180 miles on it. Seeing as how it's going to be a new year, will the car most likely lower in value sometime soon? If so, how much lower (a thousand or a few hundred)?

There's also a 2005 Pontiac G6 GT that costs $7,690 with 112,941 miles on it and I'm confused as to which car would be a better investment.. This is my first car ever that id be purchasing myself so I want to make sure I'm not getting screwed.

I'm looking to purchase either one in the next few months, so I still have a little time.

(*just in case* anyone asks.. Yes, their both pre-owned vehicles).

Thanks!!

Update:

Wow.. Thank you for being absolutely rude. FYI: I've already invested in a brand new car which costsed me a good $30,000. Sorry, that I don't want to spend an arm and a leg on a super expensive vehicle when it gets me from just point A to point B, not like I plan on traveling cross country with it. I have a child so having a not so expensive vehicle to get around local sounds pretty logical to me. The ones I've mentioned in particular are just options as a "less expensive" vehicle to get for just myself, one I don't have to share with my husband.
