10 Cars Buyers Would Purchase Again
While you can spend hours reading tons of car reviews, the best feedback tends to come from actual owners -- those who have spent numerous hours inside their vehicles, driving and taking care of them when something malfunctions. And just like any product, for a buyer to say they would purchase that exact same car again says a lot about the product's integrity.
Forbes recently released a list of the top 10 vehicles that car buyers tend to purchase or lease again and again, as well as the top 10 brand loyal car brands for 2016. Compiled through information from Experian Automotive, Subaru tops the car brands list with 67.7% of buyers coming back to buy another of its vehicles.
If you're considering purchasing any of these vehicles, I recommend using TrueCar No Haggle and Edmunds Price Promise to see what local dealers are offering.
