Oh, the Lexus type? Yeah, that kind of price tag for a Lexus isn't surprising. Hehe...

Pretty low resale value actually... Again, hard to determine why, unless it's really just a matter of popularity.

my impression of the low resale value is the perception that continental cars are more expensive to maintain. But if I really have the $$$ I'd definitely spend on the maintenance. Continental cars are just too sweet to resist. Haha!

Anyone here fancies the Fiats or the Alfa Romeos?

Possibly, but I find it funny that even BMWs and Mercs have low resale value. You would have thought that with the kind of prestige that they have, they would have rather high resale value.

A bit off topic but I saw a brand new Nissan Latio the other day used as a cab!!! Darn, I wonder how much the ride charges will be.

Between Accord and Camry, depending on your driving needs I find that if you drive long distances a lot, the extra gear ratio can help save a lot of fuel.
