BMW, Mercedes and Audi drivers = superior beings[/quote]

I don't know, Audi is in between. It's a step down from Mercedes. BMW has cheapened their brand so much with the 3 series for everyone and now the 1 series. If that's all you can afford, just get a Honda.

I have the GLS 450, and it's such a nice car. Not plasticy, great pickup, smooth and quiet. It's luxurious. [/quote]

+1, you sir are a gentleman and a scholar who is truly in touch with the current day German car offerings in these united states.

Audi has not been competitive recently IMO, we've passed them over each of the times we've gone searching for a sedan in the past 10 years. The exterior and interior designs of their cars are stale and unimaginative. I am sure the quality is decent, but it takes a certain flair to be successful in this market segment.

Everyone dumped on Chris Bangle, but BMW was far superior under his design guidance. The current 5 and 7 series are completely boring, and the 3 series look like it is standing on stilts. The interiors are very drab. And how about that X1 - such a plain looking car that it should wear a KIA badge.

Mercedes is killing it these days. Their entire range (save for the CLA/GLA, IMO) is well thought out, with excellent driving dynamics, and interior/exterior design that stand heads and shoulders above Audi and BMW. I've always had a yearning for the big GL (and now the GLS). Were it not for the room we need to haul 6 people constantly plus a healthy load of cargo, it would be our family hauler rather than an Odyssey.
