Default Where can I find a list of cars that have continuous power in the lighter socket, even...

...when ignition is off? Honda, BMW, etc.

Why don't you just rewire the power socket? To a Battery hot wire with a fuse.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to go and have this feature installed rather than buying a whole car just for the feature?

Seriously, buy whatever car you like and then have them change it to make the lighter socket hot all the time. The cost of doing that would be less than $50 if you find the right person.

Most every car made before the year 2000 has continuous power in the lighter. Then they changed it due to it being a potential fore hazard.
