..."Top of the list are the Audi A6, BMW 535i and Infiniti G37. They’re notable for better-than-average depreciation rates and superior reliability. Each has received an “excellent” valuation from Vincentric, the highest possible, with total five-year costs of less than $77,000."...

The Audi has "superior reliability?"

 

That's a joke... my friend A5 keeps on go backing to the dealer.

 

each model within a brand has different reliability standards. A6 may have excellent reliability record while the A5 may be poor. while I disagree that the A6 has superior reliability, the A4 does have better than average.

 

This makes me very happy!

 

+1...one of the main reasons I bought the G instead of a 3 series was the reliability and past Nissan experience.

 

The A6 has to be a typo. Every other publication I've read says that the A6 has horrible reliability and expensive to fix and is the one Audi model to avoid.

 

Yep. Loved my first G (zero issues, 6 years/80k miles) and loved my Nissan truck (changed the alternator and distributor in 13 years/180k miles).

I'm hoping for more of the same with the new one.

 

Nice find bud!

G37 has low depreciation rate!

 

I'm confused because it says they only looked at cars with a base MSRP over 50K, but that isn't the G37 . . .

 

yeaaaaaaaaaah boi!

 

Yeah me too.

 

G37 is bada$$

 

Every German car I've owned (VW, BMW) was a blast to drive and a cash sink hole when it comes to maintenance & repairs. The G is my third Infiniti and they've all been dependable and fun to own.

 

The car pictured in their gallery is the G37 convertible, which does fit that category.
