Trying to go luxury now..help

[Cinco]

Lexus, albeit boring, would be your most reliable.

Acura and Infiniti following up..

Lexus GS430 V8 or GS350 V6

 

[rage]

Agree with b00kie about Lexus being your best best for reliability. The new GS is an amazing car...and I am not a Lexus fan by a long shot.

 

[Trollio]

i oculdnt find a used gs in my area without nearly 100k miles

guess niggas keep those for real

what about bmw?

what acura and infiniti would you suggest?

 

[Trollio]

thoughts on lincoln mkz?

i see old people ride them tho, not many young

 

[rage]

Are you looking at used only? Whats the budget range??

 

[Trollio]

a new luxury car in tx is like 30k-60k

only thing ill buy brand new is a altima or something

im not tryna drive a 50k car when i dont have a house to surround it

 

[Cinco]

A used $50k car for $25k is still better than a new $19k Altima

BMW will not be as reliable and will eat u up.

How big of a car u want?

2005-07 Acura RL go for cheap now. I hate the way the newer ones look.

2004 Infiniti q45 big body. V8 monster. All less than $20k

2006-2010 Infiniti M35 & m45 can be had for $15-30k

Well it depends on how many miles are on it and what model of Altima. With a new car you have a warranty and a lot of the newer cars have the features older luxury cars used to have.

I'd look at the RL and M35...great cars.

IMO.. If you cant afford at least the certified pre-owned cars dont bother with a "luxury" vehicle because that maintenance damn sure isnt luxury

Just buy something that is affordable for you with a good warranty

B00kie hit it on the head... if you want trouble-free luxury... Lexus/Infiniti/Acura is your best bet... I've had or have family members that have had all of these brands and none of us EVER had a problem with the cars. If you can afford the extra 2-3k go CERTIFIED... it's basically buying a used car with new car warranty benefits... Lexus and Infiniti treat you like a new customer with their cert pre-owned cars.

In terms of driving feel.. Infiniti is the sportiest of the bunch (check the M), Lexus is numb and boring but filled with most stuff you pay extra for in a Benz and Acura splits the middle of the 2 the only diff being that Acuras are FWD which is ASS to me.

best bet is to hit your local Infiniti/Lexus/Acura dealers... they'll definitely have what you're looking for and you should be able to get a deal on a 3-5 year old ride in the 36-50k mile range.

i test drove a A-4 before, it was a slim fit but otherwise pleasant drive

I might cop one after i do some house hunting

thoughts on lincoln mkz?

i see old people ride them tho, not many young

MKZ = Ford Fusion, but uglier and with "luxury" appointments. The Mazda 6 is also based on this platform.

BMW? 3 Series would probably be in your immediate range.
