luxury cars 2008 image
Ara
Looking for 2010, 2011 or 2012 luxury car for around 30,000 with close to 40 mpg. My wife and I don't want to settle for a Prius or Civic, but we do want good MPG because we drive so much. Is this possible without spending too much more?
Answer
If you take a closer look at the Prius, you'll see that you aren't "settling". It has many of features only found in luxury cars. It's a mid-sized car, not a compact like the Civic, so room is not a problem.
Note that decent luxury cars start at about $45,000.
My 2004 Prius has cost 12 cents per mile for dealer maintenance, tires, and fuel combined over the 120,000 trouble-free miles I've driven it so far.
My 2004 Prius MPG from the logbook. (Complete years only):
2003-2004 -- 50.8 mpg 17,628 miles
2005 -- 52.6 mpg 14,688 miles
2006 -- 56.3 mpg 16174 miles
2007 -- 57.3 mpg 18384 miles
2008 -- 59.9 mpg 21755 miles
2009 -- 61.4 mpg 16177 miles
2010 -- 65.2 mpg 12134 miles

Can you tell me something about this car?
Q. I'm planning to purchase a new 2008 Mercedes CL600. I like it because it looks nice and sleek but I have no idea about cars. Is this car worth the price? Can you tell me about it? Money isn't an option here so if you have another nice luxury car recommendation, please do so.
Answer
Absolutely not!!!! That car is rediculously expensive. It's just the coupe of the flagship sedan. For that price you can get something extremely flashy and sexy like an Aston Martin vantage or even a bentley contiental GT! If price isn't an issue at all I would suggest the Bentley since it a similar to the Cl except much more desireable! Rolls Royce came out with a nice looking Coupe convertible. The Cl is a nice car for sure but it's just not that special. There are many other more desireable cars in the 100 thousand dollar plus range.
my picks
-Any Aston Martin
-Audi R8
-bentley continental (top pick since it is a similar to what you are looking at)
-Mercedes SLR Mclaren
-Porsche 911 Turbo
