On the other hand of the spectrum are the expensive cars. The main cost for these cars is the depreciation. If you purchase a luxury vehicle in the range of $80,000 to $150,000 there is very less used car value left after 5 years. There are some automakers like Honda who have been able to get a huge piece of the market share on the back of giving the most reliable cars. They have a reputation that you would have to spend minimal amount of time in the repair shop, on the other hand car makers like BMW and Mercedes-Benz give unparalleled luxury and sophistication in the car.
