Top 10 Realiable Cars. Top 10 Dependable Car Manufacturers Top 10 Least Dependable Car Manufacturers Top 5 Best Re-sale Cars

My goal for this post is to show you the most reliable cars that have the least amount of maintenance needed and that will last a very long time.

The number one most reliable car is the Honda Accord. The Accord has optional 4 cylinder with 190 hp, that gets 22 hwy mpg and 31 city mpg, or the V6 which has 271 hp, that gets 19 hwy mpg and 28 city mpg. New they range from $22,000 to $31,000. Used depending on the mileage, and year (2000 and newer), they range form $10,000 to $20,000.

2 Subaru Forester
3 Mazda MX-5
4 Mitsubishi Carisma
5 Toyota Yaris
6 Honda Civic
7 Nissan Almera
8 Honda CR-V
9 Toyota RAV4
10 Nissan Micra

Ten Most Dependable Cars:

Best Resale Cars.

The number one best resale car is the Chevrolet Corvette. Base price range: $47,245 - $55,585. After 5 years of driving it has retained its value up to 50%.

#2 Honda Civic Sedan
Base price range: $15,645 - $21,925
5-year retained value: 52 %

#3 Infiniti G37
Base price range: $34,965 - $36,265
5-year retained value: 52 %

#4 Mini Cooper
Base price range: $18,700 - $26,050
5-year retained value: 52 %

#5 Scion tC
Base price range: $15,920 - $18,420
5-year retained value: 52 %

Even though you might not have the money to buy any of these cars new, you now know what to look for in a used auto trader. Around here the best magazine to look at for used cars is the Auto Hunter; the best website to look at is Craigslist.org

It's funny the Mini Copper after 5 years retains its value up to 52% for resale, yet Mini is on the 10 least dependable manufactors.
Each and every car is a little bit different. Each car is going to have its own problems. Two of the same car, same year, same model, will have different problems. It's all in how the car is treated and driven and also, the metal cars use are always different; some have imperfections, some don't, so every car is going to have its own problems.
