Greatest Cars of the 21st Century - Kiplinger Personal Finance

So we combed a decade and a half of our buyer's guides to find the vehicles that showed up as winners time and time again. One clear takeaway: Cars have gotten better and better since the turn of the millennium. The new models are more fuel-efficient and more powerful and pack a lot more high-tech content than vehicles did 15 years ago. The really good news: All of these 2015 models are better values today than their forebears of a decade and a half ago. For example, the Subaru Forester sold for $20,590 in 2000. the 2015 model has a sticker price of just $23,045. That's a minuscule increase, especially when you consider that the 2000-model price would be $28,414 in inflation-adjusted dollars. Source: www.kiplinger.com
