Article:The most appealing new cars..

I ran across this article today and while it's not about the RLX specifically, it touches on the discussions and points that we have debated here for a while. Specifically that the purchase of luxury cars is more of an emotional purchase than one of logic (i.e. value and reliability).

Notice that the cars that scored at the top are hardly known for their reliability and value, and notice where Acura ranks in comparison.

I'm surprised that Mini is below Acura....and that Subaru and Mazda are that low...when they have the BRZ and a bunch of fun-to-drive cars.

Remember though it's about the entire brand.

yea...like for Mini...all of those cars have pretty darn good handling and catch a lot of attention on the road...

Subaru...they've got BR-Z, WRX, STi, etc. Most of them are more on the sporty side.

Same thing for Mazda, 3, 6, CX-5, miata, all of them have received high praises from car journalists......
