  8. t statistics in parentheses: * means and ** .

  9. Outcome of the model • Adjusted R-Squares are around 0.90 • Significant variables: • ABS • Weight • Power • control

  10. Results and Analysis • The outcomes of all three years are consistent with adjusted R-square=0.90 • Highlights: Speed, comfort and safety are important determinant of vehicle price • Country of origin is not significant • Fuel economy does not contribute to the price.
