    Luxury cars are all nice in their own way. But lexus is one of the few cars that is totally silent when driving. From motor sound to road noise, you can't hear it like alot of the other cars and you feel like you are riding on a cushion of air in a Lexus. Some Cadillacs ride well also but they are no Lexus.


    FYI- You could buy a bad ass top of the line used Lexus LS460 for 31 G's

    I am a big believer in driving cars you really can't afford new.

    Just buy them used. The good thing about luxury cars used, people who buy them tend to take care of them.

    I have had 2 Lexus in my time. LS430 and A IS300. Both bad ass cars. When I bought my LS430 for $16000. I had a buddy tell me in so many ways I was an idiot for buying that car.

    I asked him how did he pay for his Jeep Wrangler 4-door? He said almost $30,000. 
    I rest my case i said

    I agree Salty... will never buy a new car again... soon as you drive it off the lot you lose a large % of value.  Used cars you can get at a good price and they don't lose near the % new cars do. And you are right... most take good care of them

    its true, u do lose a large % of value when u buy new cars. but u get to be the FIRST driver with that new car smell , i mean, u never know how the previous driver drove the car. i bought my first brand new es350 when it first came out in 07/08 and i never regretted it. i fill premo gas and do oil changes pretty often. at 100k right now, its driving smoother than ever.

    but i do agree tho, some cars are just not worth to get brand new. honestly, how do you afford a brand new lets say benz cls amg for 180k LOL? instead, u can get a 04 one for way way cheaper. it realy depends. i know some people that had bad expereicnecs with second hand cars and would NEVER buy a used car ever.

    I was looking at a Lexus IS250 and Acura TL and have regrets not buying one of those cause there is no way in hell they have as many issues as the BMW. 

    On a side note I purchased the vehicle at a Mannheim auction in Nashville and the first car up for auction was a huge Mercedes that sold for almost 80k, Im assuming it was a used AMG.

    The auction itself was an event with 4000 vehicles and at least twelve lanes of action at any one time. Im sure there are bigger auctions but its a trip to say the least
