2-Year Forecasted Depreciation
*Depreciation for the last 12 months of the private party resale value.
Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.

If part of your self-description includes driving the best-looking convertible of the season with the richest looking interior, then it’ll be easy to see yourself in the 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK.
If you play basketball or first base for a living, or if you’ve done time as a shopaholic (you need to carry a lot of stuff in your car), then why are you even considering a 2-seat convertible whose hardtop folds into the trunkspace?
