High End Luxury Cars

You are in the Sedans Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens

What is this discussion about? Audi A8, BMW 7 Series, Jaguar XJ-Series, Lexus LS 460, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Volkswagen Phaeton, Maserati Quattroporte, Mercedes-Benz CL-Class, Sedan

Let's try to define this forum as being limited to luxury performance vehicles where the mainstream version in a typical configuration has an MSRP of at least $60k.

A luxury vehicle with a base price of $59k qualifies because it would typically be bought with some additional equipment, bringing the MSRP over $60k.

Vehicles like the E, 5, A6, M, or GS, even if available in certain versions over $60k, don't qualify because they are cars from companies that have higher end cars in their lineups.

already knows how the new LS handles? Where is his official review? "The best handling, most fun to drive HELM". I can't wait to read this, can anybody forward this groundbreaking article to me? In the meantime, might I suggest that team Europe go hide out in a cave, and quiver, over this stunning review, from this oh so experienced, car journalist, and human behaviorist. And now I must reveal a stunning bit of information, surprising to no one, Steve is team Europes best ally. Sorry to break your cover dude but, oh well, you kind of did it yourself with your last two posts.

American jingoism for Lexus is cute, but holds no merit in the global Tier 1 marketplace ruled by Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz. Merc1 you have it right! Lexus is a nice luxury branded vehicle but that is all.

They are thrashing around and striking out at the magnificent new LS like a spider that has been stung by a wasp! Merc, I know your livlihood depends on Mercedes, but please don't be so boring and transparent. Lighten up and have some fun!! Replies to this message: reality2 (Aug 11, 2006 4:36 pm)
