Sedans High End Luxury Cars
24700 messages, Last post on Dec 01, 2009 at 12:24 PM
You are in the Sedans Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
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.

that the new LS 460 seats are a lot better than the ones I tried in my two 2005 LS 430 test drives. Even with the lumbar support my back was hurting, and I wasn't in either car for more than 10 minutes tops.

Replying to: hpowders (Oct 17, 2006 3:59 pm) Here's the Hot Tip of the Day: No brand is 100% reliable, trouble- and maintenance-free. Please take that with you as you continue talking about HELM vehicles. I don't think that anyone is going to prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that one brand is, in all categories, universally, forever and ever amen, better than any other of all time. Thanks for keeping the conversation civil, and creating a welcoming environment for any new members who might think of jumping in.

By golly . . . then I'll take one of each HELM please!  (but pass on the Lexus  ) TagMan

Replying to: houdini1 (Oct 17, 2006 4:02 pm) I've personally never seen an Audi on a tow truck. Conversely, there was a GX and LS in the same day just yesterday. Maybe it was these poor New York streets Audi's sell poor here? And the line is forming for 2 years for these demented, unreliable, unusable, failures of cars? That's interesting that you say that as the A4 is still outselling the IS, the car that was supposed to be the dominator in this class. Cheap prices can't get you out of this one. Ah, and let's not forget the "world's best selling luxury car", the Audi A6. So let me breakdown this down to lowest smallest form of math: The world market, which includes the biggest of them all, the grand USA, gave the thrown of the world's best car to the A6. So yes, to answer(or correct you), the US does give a hoot about the Audi brand...

Replying to: blkhemi (Oct 17, 2006 5:16 pm) You really want to compare the A8 sales to LS sales in the U.S.? I didn't think so. Game, set, and match.

Replying to: hpowders (Oct 17, 2006 3:01 pm) BTW, with the heavily subsidized lease deals on BMW's nowadays, it is becoming increasing tempting to hop on the bandwagon for financial reason alone. Good to know that they are not likely to break down in the first 2-3 years
