    Subaru Made The All-Wheel Drive WRX Cheap Enough To Compete With The Front-Wheel Drive Civic Si (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Everything on Earth is becoming more expensive than it should be. A quick trip to the grocery store could cost $100 and a full tank of gas could cost $60 (with diesel prices reaching far higher). Average new-car prices have hit all-time highs and some sports and luxury models that have been around forever are getting the axe due to low sales and disinterest. That said, it's somewhat refreshing to see a couple of relatively affordable sports sedans still on the market. The Subaru WRX and Honda Ci

    The Lexus ES Sedan Is Beating Industry Resale Records, And Putting German Luxury Cars To Shame (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    As new car prices continue to climb, a vehicle retaining value is more important than ever. We write plenty about used car deals because there are virtually unlimited models to choose from that have already dropped in value. This time, however, we want to highlight a luxury sedan that holds its value far better than any of its rivals. By creating an account, you agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Reliability is often the number one concern when buying a family vehicle. Of course, interior space, safety, and amenities matter, too. Nevertheless, raising kids is expensive enough already, and it gets even harder when you spend hundreds of dollars more per year on car maintenance than you would with a different model.

    The Cheapest Audi SUV Holds Its Value Better Than The $90,000 E-Tron GT (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When calculating total ownership costs for any model, regardless of initial value, depreciation is typically the largest expense. Most people will end up losing more money to depreciation than they'll spend on insurance, fuel, loan interest, or maintenance. That said, not every car loses value at the same rate. There are some Audi models with horrid depreciation; the RS E-Tron GT somehow dropped in value from its initial MSRP of $142,400 in 2022 all the way to an average used price of $55,762 in

    5 Luxury SUVs That Depreciate Like Falling Rocks But Run Like Tanks (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Luxury SUVs are among the fastest-depreciating vehicles on the road — and for savvy used-car shoppers, that's actually great news. While the original buyer absorbs the steepest part of the value curve, a second owner can step into a genuinely premium cabin, with all the power and features that come with it, for a fraction of the new-car price. The catch? Not every depreciated luxury SUV is worth the gamble. Many well-known models, like the BMW X5, rank near the bottom for long-term reliability —
