Depends on the car.
Lexus will run forever with almost no repairs, just regular maintenance.
But, have your own mechanic check things out thoroughly.
But don't call it an investment. It's a car. It needs insurance, maintenance like oil and filter changes, replacing brake pads, car washes, space to park, etc.
The cash flow is all one way, out of your pocket. The value keeps going down. That's no investment. It's the cost of transportation.
这要取决于买什么车
雷克萨斯能永久运行，几乎无需维修，只需要定期保养。
但是，需要让你的机械师彻底地检查一番。
不过也别称之为投资，它是一辆车，需要保险，还有保养，比如机油和过滤器的更换，更换制动片、洗车、停车空间等。
现金流向会是单向的，从你的口袋往外流。其价值会一直下降，那并不是投资，而是交通费用。
This one sold recently for $376,000. The car I wound up buying for $1,500, a 1958 coupe, would be worth about $100,000 today.
上面这辆车最近卖了37.6万美元，我最后花1500美元购买的那辆1958年产的双门轿跑，如今价值大约10万美元。
I’d call that a pretty good rate of return.
I’m a dedicated car enthusiast. I wish I still had many of the cars I’ve owned over the last fifty years I would have a very expensive collection. But the thing is, you never know what the future holds with collectible cars.
我认为这个回报率是很好的。
我是一个忠实的汽车爱好者，我希望自己仍然拥有过去50年中曾有过的多款汽车，这样我将拥有一项非常昂贵的收藏。但问题是，你永远不知道你收藏的车未来会是什么样子。

, In the auto industry for over 40 years
Most of them are money pots after 10 years and the resale value on most continues to plumet.
If you had a rare model with low mileage, you may be able to make a profit.
If you want a particular car and you have the money for continual repairs, buy it. Just don't expect to make money.
There is always an exception but usually sports cars if kept nice are more likely to increase in value than a luxury car.
10年的老车大多数就跟存钱罐似的，其转售价值会一直暴跌。
如果你有一辆罕见的低行驶里程车辆，你也许能赚到钱。
如果你想要一辆特别的车，而且你有钱一直修它，那就买吧。但不要指望赚到钱。
总有例外。但在通常情况下，如果一辆运动型车辆保养得好，它比豪华型轿车更有可能增值。

No. A purchase is different than an investment. An investment is an asset you purchase to bring a return or an appreciation of the asset. Doing this will achieve neither unless you are using it as a limousine for hire or some luxury car you think will become a classic.
That said, most luxury cars are driven by mature, responsible people and not 25 years olds. If you want a luxury car and find one in great shape you can buy one at a very modest price.
不明智。购买和投资不是一回事。投资指的是你购买一种资产，目的是带来回报或资产增值。你这样做既不能带来回报、也不能使资产增值，除非你将它作为豪华轿车用来出租、或者购买一些你认为会成为经典的豪华车。
话虽如此，大多数豪华车都是由成熟、有责任心之人驾驶的，而不是一个25岁的人。如果你想要一辆豪华车，且找到一辆成色很好的，你也可以以非常便宜的价格买到一辆。

No. With few exceptions, automobiles are not investments. They depreciate over time and during that time they cost money for storage, maintenance, insurance and repair. Unless the vehicle is used commercially and money earned by it’s use covers those as well as operating costs and leaves a profit worthy justifying the business risks it can never be considered an investment.
With few exceptions, daily driver type cars do not go up in value as they age.
At 10 years old, most passenger vehicles are at the end of their life expectancy. Manufacturers will no longer carry parts and teh aftermarket may have little interest in supplying parts for a limited production model, most of which are no longer on the road. So, one could get stuck with a very expensive full scale model.
不明智，除了少数例外，汽车并不是投资。它们会随着时间的推移而贬值，在这段时间内，它们还会花费储存、保养、保险和维修费用。
除非这辆车用于商业运营，并且使用该车所赚取的资金来涵盖这些费用及运营成本，并且还能剩下能证明其商业风险的利润，否则它永远不能被视为一项投资。
除了少数例外，日常驾驶型汽车不会随着车龄增长而增值。
在使用了10年后，大多数乘用车都已达到了预期寿命。制造商将不再提供零件，售后市场可能对为这些有限生产的车型提供零件兴趣不大，这些车的大多数已经不再生产了。因此，人们可能会被一辆非常昂贵的全尺寸车型所困扰。

Repeat after me:
A car is not an investment.
I don’t care whether it is a luxury car or a beater. It is an asset that you can assume will depreciate.
Of course, some cars have gone up in value. The 1957 Porsche Speedster I decided not to buy for $800 in 1966 is worth a lot more today:
请跟我念：
汽车不是一种投资
我不在乎它是豪华车还是跑车，它是一种你应当假设其会贬值的资产。
当然，有些汽车的价格已经涨了，比如1957款的保时捷Speedster ，1966年时它的售价为800美元，那时候我决定不买，如今它的价值要高得多。

Who knew?
But here’s the thing: who knew? I just wanted a car that was unique and drove beautifully.
I still drive Porsches. My current ride, a 2005 Carrera (997.1). I paid about $38,000 for it six years ago. Today, with 75,000 miles on the clock, it would probably sell for upwards of $42,000.
I won’t sell it anything soon.
Buying a car as an “investment” is a fools errand. My current Porsche has been a great automobile because it has held its value and is a blast to drive. I’m going to call that an excellent value.
If you want to get a return on your investment, don’t look to assets that almost invariably depreciate. Buy cars because they’ll serve a specific cuntion, whether it is basic transportation, recreation, ego-stroking, or all of the above.
You’d be far better off putting your money into an investment that typically goes up in value—like rental property. You can control an expensive asset using leverage—a little of your money (a down payment) an a lot of other people’s money (the bank). Leverage provides a multiplying effect on the equity. Equity is the real measure of wealth.
For example, if you buy a rental house for $400,000 with a $100,000 investment (25%) and the property goes up in value 5% each year, your equity will grow like this:
谁会想到呢？
问题就在于：谁能想到？我只是想要一辆独一无二、开起来很漂亮的车。
我仍然在开保时捷，目前我开的是2005年款的Carrera （997.1），六年前我花了3.8万美元买的，现在，它的里程是7.5万英里，售价可能会超过4.2万美元。
我不会很快卖掉这辆车。
将买车作为一种“投资”是一种愚蠢事。我现在这辆保时捷是一款伟大的车型，因为它保持了自己的价值，这是一辆速度很快的车，我愿称之为极好的价值。
如果你想从你的投资中获得回报，就不要指望那些通常都会贬值的资产。买汽车是因为它们的特殊用途，无论是基本的交通、娱乐、还是以上所有的用途。
你最好把你的钱投入一项通常会增值的资产中，比如租赁用房地产，你可以使用杠杆来控制一项昂贵的资产，你只需付一点钱（首付）加上其他人很多的钱（银行）。杠杆效力会对股本产生倍增效应，资产净值是衡量财富的真正标准。

Depends on the car and valuation I would look at the demand and the historical price increases however I would never ever personally look to buy a vehicle for an investment
I own two classic motorcycles
and a v8 hot rod I built with a 1932 model a sedan body
the prices and valuation of these have skyrocketed but so has the tax, running costs, repairs and that kinda takes away all the profit capital gains
the only way I see this profitable is if you buy an old classic and Chuck it in a barn for 15 years however I would say stocks shares a property would be a better investment
I’m not trying be to put the idea down but it’s very hard to make profit out of vehicles if you want one or it’s your dream affordable car I would buy it because you admire and love it if you make money on the side great.
Of course you could see a healthy return for a bargain
out of interest what is this vehicle ?
这取决于车型和估值。我会去看看这款车的（市场）需求以及历史价格增长，但我个人永远不会考虑购买汽车作为投资。
我曾拥有两辆经典的摩托车，还有一辆V8大马力车，是用一辆1932年的车体改造而来。这些车的价格和估值已经涨上天了，但税收、运营成本、维修费用也在飞涨，这些都会抵消所有的利润和资本收益。
我认为这样才是唯一有利可图的方式：即如果你购买了一部经典老车，然后把它仍在谷仓里15年。然而，我认为股票和房产仍然是更好的投资。我不是试图让你放弃这个想法，但如果你想要一辆车、或者这是你梦想中买得起的车，那么你就很难从车中获益。我会买车，是因为我热爱并欣赏汽车，如果顺便还能把钱赚了，那就太好了。
当然了，如果你杀价比较厉害，还是能有可观的回报的。
出于兴趣，我想问你要买哪款车？

If the investment is in your comfort and driving in a car which is perfectly reliable and meets your needs then a 10 year old prestige car is ideal. It will be cheap to buy, expensive to service but if you don’t do many miles that won’t matter.
If you are a high mileage daily driver my comment will not apply!!
如果投资是为了让自己舒适、驾驶一辆完全可靠且能满足你需求的汽车，那么，一辆十年车龄的老车是理想的选择。价格会很便宜，但维护起来很贵，但如果你开得不多，那就没问题。
但如果你是一个日常高里程的司机，那么我说的这些都不适用。

Is it a good investment to buy a luxury car that's over 10 years old?
Cars are never investments. They always lose money. If you are asking if a 10 year old luxury car can be a daily driver, yes. A 10 year old low mileage Lexus would make a good daily driver. Most other luxury cars built in the last 25 years have been total money pits.

If permitted to make broad generalizations, I would conjecture that the world is going away from combustion engines to EVs. All should be focused on getting solar so we can charge our cars at home.

It depends on the luxury brand and your intended use.
All luxury brands carry a high risk of expensive repairs if anything goes wrong.
Most luxury brands are thirsty on fuel, and on insurance, if you are going to drive them
Some luxury brands have high investment potential: my son in law has a Mitsubishi Evo that is in showroom condition has low mileage is driven very little is meticulously maintained - and has been shooting up in value.
That is an investment!
Buying an older Rolls Royce or other limousine could be a business asset that produces a healthy return if you have a wedding hire company.
But I would look into the spares and repairs risks and costs for any car over 10 years old that you actually intend to drive
这要取决于是什么奢侈品牌，以及你的预期用途。
如果出现任何问题，所有奢侈品牌都存在昂贵维修费用的高风险。
如果你是想自己开，那么大多数奢侈品牌都是“油耗子”，而且保险费昂贵。
一些奢侈品牌具有很高的投资潜力：我的女婿有一辆三菱EVO，处于陈列室状态，行驶里程很低，经过了精心的保养，其价值一直在飙升。
这就是一项投资！
如果你有一家婚礼租赁公司，购买一辆老款劳斯莱斯或其他豪华轿车、可能是一种商业资产，可以带来可观的回报。
但是我会调查车子的配件情况和维修风险，以及打算实际驾驶超过10年车龄的汽车的成本。

Investment? No. It is a depreciating piece of personal property. If you want it for transportation, then buy. The only time a car is considered an investment is if it is sought after by collectors and appreciates in value. Generally they tend to be rare, very limited production or custom vehicles.
投资？不！车子是一种不断贬值的个人财产。如果你是想把它当做交通工具，那就买吧。一辆汽车被视为投资的唯一情况、就是他受到了收藏家的追捧并增值。一般来说，这种车往往是罕见车型、产量有限或定制车辆。

Okay, here is how I look at it. No car is an investment, save for a sext few (e.g. Ferrari F355, BMW E30).
There are basically only two main checklist items you need to consider:
1.Do you really love the car?
2.Have you done enough research on it?
If the answer is yes to both, you’re good to go!
这是我的看法：没有汽车能成为投资品，只有少数几辆（比如法拉利F355、宝马E30）
基本上，你只需考虑两个主要的检查项目
1、你真的喜欢这辆车么？
2、你对这辆车做过足够的研究吗？
如果两个答案都是肯定的，那么你就可以买。

Okay, here is how I look at it. No car is an investment, save for a sext few (e.g. Ferrari F355, BMW E30).
There are basically only two main checklist items you need to consider:
1.Do you really love the car?
2.Have you done enough research on it?
If the answer is yes to both, you’re good to go!

No.
A ten year old luxury car most likely will need work and will still depreciate.
You might get lucky and buy the car for less than what it is actually worth but the odds are against you.
不明智
一辆十年车辆的豪华轿车很可能需要修理，而且还会继续贬值。
可能你比较幸运，以低于实际价值的价格购买了这辆车，但这种几率并不大。

Probably not. It would depend to some extent on which luxury car, and that is hard to predict. Most luxury cars depreciate faster than other cars. People who can afford luxury cars consistently seek the newest and shiniest. In general cars are not good investments, they are a transportation expense. Part of the expense is the depreciation. Very few cars appreciate in value.
可能并不明智，这在一定程度上取决于你买哪款豪华车，这是很难预测的。大多数豪华车的贬值速度都比其他车型要快。买得起豪华车的人总是追求最新、最闪亮的车。一般来说，汽车不是一项好的投资，而是一笔交通费用，部分费用是折旧费，很少有汽车能增值。

Unless dollar bills come out out of the exhaust when you run it, it is not an investment much less a good one.
除非你开车时排气管中能排出美元来，否则这就不是一项投资，更不是一项好的投资。

It would depend on what the luxury car is. I think American luxury cars like Cadillac or Lincoln would be fine. I wouldn’t touch a German luxury car with a ten foot pole (Mercedes, BMW, Audi all have reliability issues). Japanese luxury cars, like Lexus are very good (my sister has a ten year old Lexus SUV with 150,000 miles on it). If you can afford it, it’s always better to buy a new car (a used car can be somebody else’s problems). I just bought a 2020 Toyota Camry SE 2.5L 203 HP 4 cyl with an 8 speed automatic with sport shift and I love it. Great mileage (mid thirties) and very quick and fun to drive.. Don’t go near a Volkswagen, new or used. I bought my son a used 2004 Volkswagen Jetta that was a complete piece of shit. When my Dad died I gave my son Dad’s 1997 Buick LeSabre Limited which only had 18000 miles on it, and that car is still running like a clock. Bill had to pay a Volkswagen dealer a $1K to fix the fucking thing’s turbo charger so the car would pass the Pennsylvania emissions test so he could sell it to a friend. That VW had low miles when I bought it used, steer clear of them! My mechanic says German cars are “over-engineered” and over-priced as well. Also, don’t buy a new GM or Ford product with that stupid “stop/start” technology. A car’s engine shutting off each time you stop and then restarting when you step on the gas??? And several dozen times a day in traffic? That sounds like a host of engineering problems down the road to me. It’s crazy for just getting an extra one or two mpg.
这取决于你买的哪款豪华车，我认为向凯迪拉克或林肯这种美国豪华车就没问题。豪华德国车我是碰都不会碰的（奔驰、宝马、奥迪都有可靠性问题）。像雷克萨斯这种日本豪华车就非常好（我姐姐就有一辆10年车龄的雷克萨斯SUV，行驶了15万英里）。如果你买得起，最好还是买一辆新车把（二手车可能会有别人带来的毛病）。我刚刚买了一辆2020年款的丰田凯美瑞SE，2.5升203马力，4缸，配备8速自动变速箱，可切换为运动模式，很喜欢这辆车。里程数较大（3万多英里了），速度快，驾驶很有趣。不要去碰大众车，无论是新车还是旧车。我给我儿子买过一辆2004年的二手大众捷达，那车简直就是一坨屎。当我父亲去世时，我把父亲的1997款别克LeSabre给了我儿子，这辆车只开了1.8万英里，它仍然像时钟一样运转。我儿子不得不支付1000美元给大众汽车经销商来修理这辆破车的涡轮增压器，这样这辆车才能通过宾夕法尼亚州的排放测试，然后他就可以把这车卖给他的朋友了。在我购入的时候，那辆大众车的里程数是很低的，远离大众车！我的机械式说德国车“设计过度”，价格也过高了。此外，不要购买带有愚蠢“启停”功能的通用或福特新车。每次停下车时，汽车引擎都会关闭，然后在你踩油门时重新启动？？在日常通勤时每天要重复几十次？对我来说，这听起来就像是一大堆的工程问题，就为了多跑那几英里，这是疯了吧。

Depends on many factors. I have always preferred the new one - because is still unused, so i would get to explore its full capacity while all the mechanical parts are still fresh from the factory.
Basic cars are not so bad at all - I owned one. I know, for some who are used with the luxury like the latest infotainment system, leather upholstery, multicolored lights in the coupe, heated front and rear seats - well, they would probably get the luxury 10-y old car. Beside the basic equipment, the only negative i can point to with the new car is that the engine needs to have at least few hundred miles in order to unfold its true power and capacity. Until then you might not be satisfied with the car and its performance.
The good thing about the luxury car - it has the comfortable tweaks one might desire, plus the driver might feel and hear the car. What i would not like is the fact that someone may have already “taken the soul” of the car. You have no idea how and where it was driven, some problems may be masked.
这取决于很多因素，我是一直比较喜欢新车，因为它还没有被使用过。所以我能在所有机械部件刚刚从工厂里出来的时候、充分利用它的所有性能。
基础车型一点也不差呀，我就有一辆。我知道，对于一些习惯了最新信息娱乐系统、真皮内饰、花里胡哨灯饰、前排和后排座椅加热等奢侈品的人来说，他们可能会买一辆10年车龄的豪华老车。除了基本的设备之外，我能想到的新车的唯一缺点、就是其发动机需要至少行驶几百公里才能发挥其真正的动力和性能。在那之前，你可能会对这辆新车及其性能不满意。
豪华车的优点在于，它具有人们可能想要的舒适性，加上驾驶员可能能够听到或者“感受到”这辆车。而我不喜欢的是，有些人可能已经“拿走了这辆车的灵魂”，因为你不知道卖家是如何开的这辆车，也不知道他是什么地形上开的这辆车，所以有些问题可能会被卖家掩盖。

Buying used is a risk especially 10 years out or with 30K miles or more. Each situation is different. Do your research when buying or leasing a car. Never give your complete trust to a dealer even if they say the car went through a 500 point inspection when buying used. The next car I buy will be a new model 3 Tesla. I will look into other brands in the future based on my needs.
购买二手车是有风险的，尤其是10年车龄或3万英里以上的车。情况都是不同的，在购买或租赁汽车时你要进行调查，永远不要全盘相信任何经销商，即使他们说在购买这辆二手车时进行过500项检查。下一辆我要买的车是新款的特斯拉model 3，在未来、我会根据自己的需求寻找其他品牌。

For my personal opinion, just personal, I prefer to buy a brand new basic car rather than a second hand car, no matter it’s luxury or not, for a simple reason of a second hand car always tend to have higher failure rate, and the luxury car parts usually are more expensive than the basic car, if you’re unluckly, you will have to face a high maintenance cost.
And the second reason is you never know what story happened in a second hand car, you really can’t take further imagination.
就我个人而言，我更喜欢一辆全新的基础款车型而不是二手车，不管是不是豪华车。原因很简单，二手车的故障率往往比较高，而且豪华车的配件通常都比基础车型要贵，如果你运气不太好的话，你将不得不面对高昂的维护成本。
第二个原因是，你永远不知道一辆二手车出过什么事，你真的无法想象。

Unless you have a very keen eye for the current and future market, don’t do it.
Luxury cars are often less reliable and more costly to maintain. Most vehicles continue to lose value over the years and the more miles they get.
除非你对当前和蔚来的市场有敏锐的眼光，否则不要这样做。
豪华汽车的可靠性往往都比较低，维修成本也较高。大多数车辆在过去几年里都在不断贬值，里程数越多贬值越多。
