The reputation sucks. We love the car, but keep wondering if we were crazy to not get our usual Honda/Toyota/BMW. see full GMC Acadia review |

Strong resale value. Good brand image, I live/work in Beverly Hills and still holds it's own against European rivals for much less. However, some brand snobs will throw their nose. Eh, who cares. see full Lexus IS review |

Lexus cars in general are rock solid. There is definitely a return to investment quotient, in design, features, performance, and reliability, which translates into high resale value. see full Lexus IS review |
