Lexus is a great Luxury car for the money IMO and reliably to boot, but I have to say I'm a bit of a BMW fan when it comes to luxury cars.

Yea I was kind of looking at the M5 but I didn't like some of the things I've heard about it's transmission.. The Audi RS6 looks great but I'm not sure if it's coming to America

Audi S8

http://www.audiusa.com/audi/us/en2/n...udi_A8/S8.html

I really think when it comes to performance that last for years and years i will have to say Audi.

I really like BMW's but the fact you have to spend so much to get a real performance car out of them. Which is fine for people that love BMW but not me.

Benz has way to many TSB's on every car in there line up every year. But the AMG's take the crown in TSB's .

Audi takes there time when they come out with a new S line car. With the balance of power and awd handleing you really cant beat it for the price.

My brother has a AMG 63 and that thing looks like straight from a JAMES BOND movie dude, it needs nothing, it has 7 speed intelligent transmission and the interior is just like a first class in a Concorde, luxurious as hell. Definately Mercedes/AMG has some class on its own.

^^^^ that car is also $300k! For around $100k or less the BMW M5 or M6, Mercedes SL65 AMG, or the new Audi RS5 are all great choices. IMO, the best luxury car for the money is the new 550hp Cadillac CTS-V which can be had brand new for about $65k out the door
