Most Overrated Luxury Brand

[mikeyb]

I was wondering what you all think is the most overrated Luxury Brand?

 

[stdntDrvr]

infinity

 

[noclue119]

I would say Mercades.
Their cars sucks ass in reliablity and preformance.

Only reason why they can charge so high is

1. Benz made the first Internal combustion engine.
2. They are seen a plush cars.

At least Infinity has the G35.

cadillac

Yep benz.. horrid cars. Some of the worst ratings in the best years.

I was thinking Lincoln.

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

i wouldnt really go as far as to consider them "luxury" rated

I was thinking Lincoln.

 

[ZoomZoomH]

yeah Lincoln is kinda overrated... no 'WOW' cars to lead the way... at least Cadillac is refreshing their whole line of cars.

 

[stdntDrvr]

actually lincolns are pretty damn nice...i used to sell them. the aviator is retarded...who wants a 50K explorer? but if i were old and moldy, i'd get a town car...those things ride great. they have the zephyr (sp) coming out in 06 or 07 that looks different.

Jaguar

 

[stdntDrvr]

csi scores are actually reflect more on the dealerships than the cars...trust me, i had to maintain a certain score or it was my ass.

 

[blynzoo]

Benz for sure. Jags are now more reliable (more). Audis still have some pretty awesome parts failures, but they are just doing so well with performance that I cant stay too mad at them.

Benz is overpriced for a crappy car that WILL have a critical failure in the first 5 years.

i would have to say lexus... extremely overpriced toyotas... kinda surprised nobody said that yet

 

[jeremyfl]

An Audi is just a nicer VW......I think Benz is overpriced I actually like infinity though....

 

[Mike R]

I wouldn't even say lincoln is rated.. Not many differnt vehicles. The TC's kinda sell themselves. I never see many commercials for them-and Ford isn't dumping the brand like GM did to Olds..and Buick. Do they even make Buicks anymore? Now jag...eh, it's just a Ford-er mazda 6 ...But they are waay better in reliablilty than when they were on thier own.

I'd say chrylser....rebadged mercs....

 

[DE31]

how good is BMW reliability?

 

[ZoomZoomH]

pretty much all german cars are rated BELOW American brands, some slightly better than others...

 

[Mr. Win]

Are you kidding me? they are one of the most well rounded cars on the market. My mothers 99 just click 100k and still runs as strong as the days she bought it.
