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.

#18424 of 24699 Maybach would be a good addition to this forum by tagman Aug 29, 2006 (2:57 pm)
I think that we've already had some Maybach discussions in this forum that proved to be interesting, and that if Pat officially cleared the runway, we might get a little more discussion from time to time in the future. Also, the heading will soon need to be updated to include the LS460 and then finally the LS600hL, or for simplification, the full Lexus LS line. TagMan

we are not here to talk about other posters nor are we here to talk about what is going on in any other discussion. If you have a problem with a posted message here or in another discussion, please email me. Yeah, a couple of posts met Kirstie's magic vanishing potion that she licensed to me.
#18430 of 24699 Average Age by houdini1 Aug 29, 2006 (3:21 pm)
Does anyone actually have any credible sources of info concerning average age of certain auto owners? I've eaten quite a few hats before but I will gladly eat another one if the age of Mercedes drivers isn't older than Lexus drivers. I am not trying to start a war, I am just curious. Anything other than opinion out there? Replies to this message: tagman (Aug 29, 2006 3:24 pm) syswei (Aug 29, 2006 4:03 pm) tagman (Aug 29, 2006 4:06 pm) hpowders (Aug 29, 2006 4:14 pm) and 6 more...

Replying to: houdini1 (Aug 29, 2006 3:21 pm) A number of months ago, there was a chart posted here that represented the average ages of drivers of most vehicles. Maybe someone here remembers the source. Bottom line . . . there IS some credible data on this, and BTW, the average age of the MB driver IS older than the Lexus driver, but that is likely due to the demographics economic curve. Most drivers tend to get older in ratio with the increase in price of the vehicles, with some very interesting exceptions, however.
