 How well do BMW's hold their values.....



It was disappointing that BMW didn't make the list this year.

For 2007, the car models with the highest residual values in various categories are as follows.

Highest residual values:

* Mini Cooper.
* Land Rover Range Rover Sport.
* Honda Accord.
* Toyota RAV4.
* Toyota Avalon.
* Toyota 4Runner.
* Porsche 911 Carrera.
* Toyota Sequoia.
* Acura TL.
* Toyota Tacoma.
* Mercedes-Benz CLS Class.
* Toyota Tundra.
* Honda Odyssey.

ALG also rated brands that were rated as having residual values above the industry average.

Residuals above average:

* Honda.
* Jeep.
* Toyota.
* Mazda.
* Volkswagen.
* Saturn.
* Subaru.
* GMC.
* Nissan.

While future market changes can affect residual values, think of this information as yet another tool to help you get the best vehicle for your money.

This is true, BMWs arent _that_ great at holding value. Look at the E46 for example, and it's declining price range. It's usually the entry level (most common) model that depreciates the most. For the E46, it's the 323/325i. Heck, you can't even hardly give away a 323i these days. For the E90/E92 the 325/328i will likely hold less value than the 335i. 5 series less likely, M models depreciate the least.. and forget about the 7-series. You lose $20,000 when you drive it off the lot.
