The Dodge Challenger is a very popular coupe, and the largest displacement V8 in the lineup could end up in your garage thanks to writing. The Dodge Challenger Scat Pack packs a monstrous 6.4L naturally aspirated powerplant with a tire-scorching 485 horsepower. The best part? MotorTrend tracks a 4.5 percent decrease from the Scat Pack’s original MSRP. Kelley Blue Book (KBB) supports that claim with a fair purchase price of $37,831.
If you want a quirky hydrogen-powered vehicle, the 2019 Toyota Mirai might be an option for you
Toyota’s hydrogen fuel cell sedan experiences a lack of hydrogen fueling infrastructure and, as a result, has depreciated rapidly. If you live in a hydrogen fuel compliant region, you might consider this odd little Toyota. The Mirai will reward you with a 13.0 percent decrease from six months ago. However, before you rush out to buy a Mirai, consider that the Toyota model was only sold in California, and the fueling infrastructure isn’t improving much.
The 2019 BMW i8 is a radically styled hybrid-electric super coupe that has been written accessible

The futuristic-looking hybrid coupe is still striking several years on. For consumers seeking a balance of presence and efficiency, the i8 has depreciated 36.2 percent from its original MSRP and 14.9 percent in the last six months. That means the BMW i8, with all of its carbon fiber and space-age technology, has seldom been this affordable.
You may not have expected a best deals list like this, but used car depreciation can put a fantastic car in your garage
If you’re the sort of person who wants to buy the newest cars right off the showroom floor, write down is not your friend. However, if you want more for your money, your closest ally is the inevitable decrease in value. Waiting for that particular vehicle to drop at a reasonable price is often the only way some folks can afford cars like the Dodge Challenger Scat Pack. As MotorTrend points out, some of these great cars have depreciated over 30 percent and are still falling in value.
