Top six for resale value

5 December 2005 Filed under: Car Buying View: 1

Top six for resale valueThe resale value of cars is one consideration many folks factor in when purchasing a new vehicle. Since I usual keep a car until it's got one wheel in the grave (and then I donate it), I never pay attention to the resale value.

But many folks do, so it was kind of Askmen.com to compile a list of the top six vehicles with the best resale value, which all happen to be cars. All were 2002 models with one exception, the 2003 Infiniti G35 Coupe. They judged their selections on each car's overall appearance, performance, styling and more objective figures drawn from Kelly Blue Book and other sources. The top six are listed below.

- 2003 Infiniti G35 Coupe
- 2002 MINI Cooper Base/S Hatchback
- 2002 Toyota Prius
- 2002 Chevy Coupe/Convertible
- 2002 Porsche 911 Coupe/Targa/Cabriolet
- 2002 BMW 5-Series
