    Thank you! I always love the opportunity to brag on my favorite labels! Yes!!

    Ok, Lexus has the softest, most plush interiors, more comfort imenities than any other brand, it seems. They are the most reliable, mechanically speaking. They are the best bargain IMO, they are practically a steal. they are luxurious, sporty, FAST.

    And, they are a true driver's car. Miles apart from BMW, anyone whose driven a beemer knows what I mean. BMW makes a great car, engine-wise, but the interior is so cramped and discomforting, it's hard to focus on the pleasure of the drive.

    Hey now, I've ridden in some very nice lexus's and very nice Beamers. I'll give Lexus the edge on reliablity, but definitely not styling - both interior and exterior.

    I couldn't agree more. The only american made cars I like are the Mustang and the Camaro, and even they have their problems...

    I'd be happy styling on the back country roads.

    You could sell Lexus! :)

    Yea, a new Mustang GT is the only American car I would consider buying. We simply suck at making cars.

    Oh yea, and the newer Chevy Cavaliers' side mirrors are held to the car by big rubber bands. No joke.

    I keep forgetting that Jaguar is now American-owned. However, I don't think they are very reliable, mechanically speaking.

    No, Jaguar, while extremely expensive, are some of the most poorly-made cars out there. They are HORRID, reliability speaking, yet they cost an average of $70,000. Why anyone buys them is beyond me....

    Volkswagen, while maybe not the best in reliability (but they're improving) are definetly the most fun cars I've ever driven. Their suspension is top notch...my car can turn on a freaking dime. Its awesome.

    So, buy a dodge neon, rip the jag off some poor lawyer's hood during his lunch break and glue it on your hood. There..I just saved ya 70K's!

    Fontella, what kind of Mazda do you have?? I used to drive a shiny red RX-7, one of the fastest sports coupes on the road.. :D
