“All that power but wimpy brakes to stop it,” said Chris Pyle, auto expert with
JustAnswer
. He explained that its ABS system has serious issues, “often leading to the ABS system thinking you are losing control and derating the engine performance.” Plus, he said the car requires pricey 93 octane fuel.

Audi R8

Audi cars are stylish and attractive — yet this specific model could turn into a financial drain. “Vehicles generally aren’t considered investments, but this one is exceptionally foolish as it can lose up to half its worth within four to five years,” noted Pyle. He highlighted that routine upkeep is already costly, let alone adding in exorbitant financing, insurance, and repair expenses.

Jaguar F-Type

There’s no doubt this vehicle is stunning, yet it could drain your savings significantly. “[It] ticks all the boxes for everything you desire in a car,” he commented. However, after the warranty runs out, “you’ll find yourself visiting the dealership frequently due to engine and electrical problems,” Pyle warned.

Toyota GR Supra

Fans of Fast and Furious, pay attention. According to Pyle, it’s best to avoid the four-cylinder model. He praised the six-cylinder instead, noting the differences between the two. However, the main issue lies with some components beneath the hood; these aren’t sourced from Toyota but rather from BMW, making it difficult to get hold of replacement parts quickly enough,” as per his explanation.

Chevy Camaro

Many of us want a slice of Americana — and what’s more American than a Chevy Camaro? Probably the huge bills that will come along with owning it. “It has reached the end of life. So parts will become scarce,” Pyle said. He wasn’t impressed with recent models either. “The quality is really cheap inside and out,” he added. As for future value? “[It] will only collect people offering you far less than what you think it is worth,” he said.
