Brand reliability
Consumer-survey composite — JD Power · WhatCar · Consumer Reports. Same score for every variant of a given make.
Resale strength
100 − 3× annualised tangible-decay (COE-stripped). Fitted from each variant's asking-price-by-age regression then averaged at model level.
Peer set
Every same-segment model with ≥5 active PARF listings whose variants fit a depreciation curve. Practicality isn't plotted — it's a body-shape constant within the segment, so it would be the same for every dot.
Quadrants
The crosshair marks the segment median on each axis. Top-right (Safe Bets) is strong on both; top-left (Hidden Gems) holds value above what the brand reputation suggests; bottom-right (Bargain Buys) is well-built but depreciates fast — buy cheap; bottom-left (High Risk) is soft on both.

Honda Stream — 2nd gen RN6 (2006-2014)

Verdict

JDM Honda compact MPV — predecessor / sibling to the Honda Freed era. 1.8L R18A + 2.0L R20A i-VTEC petrol + 5-speed automatic. Same R18A bulletproof Honda family. Cars 11-19 years old; aged-Honda items dominate. SG market sees these as parallel imports; private-history examples are the cleaner buys.
