Sedans High End Luxury Cars

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.

Overall, the entire car market is in a slump. I think the HELC market is on the way to correcting itself during the next uptick, where those who can truly afford will drive. IMO, of course.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Can anyone tell me how difficult it is to replace the oxygen sensor on a 735il? The manual is not too clear. Specifically, where are the connections? Thank You. |

Although technically not the same class, the price is about the same once you add the necessary packages to the E. I compared both LS 460 and LS 430 to new and old E's. Interestingly, MB just does not have all the goodies on their cars that the competition has, even Genesis. If you add the ones you can, the cost rises astronomically. Like the 460, but see too many complaints about wind noise, road noise, engine problems, etc. Also 430 seems to ride better from reports.

Replying to: benznessman (Aug 19, 2009 7:54 pm) 1) Audi A6 2) BMW 5 series 3) Infiniti M45 4) Jaguar XF 5) 2010 MB E350 They did not have much good to say about the car (compared to competition) According to car and Driver MB is the car that you buy to impress the neighbours.. Also in SoCal with all the incentives available a base 2009 E350 can be had for 40K..if you can find one. |
