Mini, BMW, Infiniti Top Best Resale Value List
Our list of the cars, trucks and SUVs with the best resale value has just been updated, and a lot of familiar names top the list. When we break down resale values by segment, the Mini Cooper, Honda Accord, Infiniti G35/G37, BMW 5 Series and GMC Sierra/Chevy Silverado top their respective segments.
When you take a look at the top 10 resale values overall, it’s the Infiniti G35/G37, Jeep Wrangler and BMW 3 Series taking the top three spots, knocking the Mini Cooper off its previous No. 1 perch.
Which cars rank lowest? The Mazda B2300, Ford Ranger and Suzuki Forenza top that dubious list.
Check out the full rankings below.

I noticed that in the overal rankings, almost all of them are sports versions or special editions of the car. This makes the CR-V, Impreza, and Tacoma really stand out to me. They are regular run of the mill models and still made that list. Is the Tacoma produced in low numbers though- I can't remember the last time I saw one.

I drive a Ford Ranger. Poor me! I guess I might as well push my worthless Ford Ranger in a river or over a cliff.
My Ford Ranger may be worthless to most people but it brings a MILLION joys to me. Make that BILLION. Make that TRILLION.
Last night I parked my truck beside a big Tundra. I wouldn't trade my Ranger for that ugly metal that's supposedly viewed as the more resale-correct truck to own.
Call me ugly; call me mental, but I love my Ford Ranger and it's a fun truck to drive.

Why didn't your title read: "Infiniti, Jeep, and BMW take top spots" rather than listing Mini?
Why is it that the media is constantly praising foreign cars and dissing American brands?
