10. Honda Civic DX sedan
Base MSRP: $15,010
Five-year cost of ownership: $33,759*

At $15,010, the Honda Civic DX sedan has the highest purchase price on this list. But this stylish four-door sedan holds value well, depreciating just 62 percent over five years — third best in this ranking, behind the Chevrolet Cobalt and Honda Fit. Honda sells a Civic DX coupe priced $200 lower than the sedan, but with a five-year insurance-cost estimate that is $524 higher than the Civic DX sedan, the two-door is more expensive to own.
