2011 Best Brand Award
2011 Best Resale Value Awards Everyone knows that to get a good deal on a new car, you have to negotiate a good price and secure a good financing rate. Fewer buyers consider predicted resale value in the quest to get the most for their money, but a $25,000 new car with strong resale value can actually cost less over a short three-year ownership cycle than a $20,000 car with poor resale value. The car you choose can be more important than the terms you negotiate. The annual Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards recognize automakers' outstanding achievements in producing new vehicles that best maintain their appeal after five years of ownership.
2011 Best Brand: Subaru 
For
many, Subaru is synonymous with all-wheel drive. A smaller group
instantly equates the automaker with rally racing and performance. And
for a surprising number of people we talk with, any mention of Subaru
still conjures the iconic BRAT introduced in the late seventies. Very
few, though, associate the automaker with excellent resale value. But
this year Subaru tops Honda, Toyota and other usual suspects as our 2011
Best Resale Value Award recipient for best brand. How so? A styling
renaissance is putting the vehicles on more shoppers' radars, and what
they're discovering are cars and crossovers that are just plain nicer
and better-built than they've long thought. Subaru and its symmetrical
all-wheel drive are still extra popular in the white and wet parts of
the country, but the secret is slipping out and more people are taking
notice of a gem they may have overlooked since the BRAT went bye-bye in
1987.
