His car is just too long and low and loaded with high tech shit like a computer screen stereo that requires reading a book to know how to change stations.

If I was going to get a luxury car it would be a Grand Marquis. Nice ride, nice comfortable interior and pretty simple despite being luxurious. My mom had one as a rental a few years ago and I took it for a ride and loved the way it rode.

A big luxury car just isnt something I want or need at this point in my life.

It’s not nice. Sorry to break it to you bro. Not even the same world of car.

But I guess for someone who hates gadgets, yes, the other cars are overkill.

I LOVE the bells and whistles my car has to offer and what the other luxury liners (:lol) have to offer. That’s what makes those cars greater than anything else out there on the road. Then again, I’m a techie…so maybe that’s why I like the bells and whistles.

certain features I like including my automatic headlights but really I hate leather seats, power seats are pointless (my truck has power drivers side seat) and I dont need all kinds of crazy computerized shit in a car.

Power seats rock. You can find a better driving position instead of the one click too close, one click too far away BULL SHIT.

nice lookin car, great price point to. thats going to be a competitive car in it’s class. hands down VW is going to run the luxery market for the next 3 years. between the panamera and the new A8, VW is going to hold a major share of the market, and take a lot of BMW and MERC sales.
