It's silly to pay a bank to improve your credit history. Use credit cards to improve your credit score (get a couple, use them semi regularly, pay them off every month without incurring interest charges). Pay for the car in cash if you really make what you claim to. Or, better yet, have your company buy/lease the car and write it off as a business expense. This is all pretty basic business management stuff...

Nah, not a bentley. RR is more respectable.

Infiniti M and BMW 5 have the best chassis for a Luxury car. Then Audi 8, followed by Lexus LS, Then Mercedes S. Acuras are really nice and have a great chassis but they just dont have the same feel as the rwd cars. If you dont have to deal with Snow and similar conditions, I would get the Infiniti M. If slippery conditions are present, I would opt for the Audi or Lexus LS. Both have amazing stability programs. The Lexus does an amazing job at keeping the car in control where other cars would struggle.

Hey guys,

Sorry to bring back such an old thread...but I finally decided what I want...I'm gonna go with an Audi RS5...problem is that they wont be available in the US until October...I'm guessing it's gonna be around 85k...the tranny on my evo just went and I need a new car BAD.

Could you guys help me find a car that is pimp and one that will hold it's value really well until October so I can trade it in for the RS5?

Thanks for all the input btw

Evos hold their value pretty well. I'd suggest fixing it and driving it until the Audi comes out.

Either that or get a Stutz. They are pimp and rare and should hold their value pretty good. Maybe.

What I like about some of the newer Audi cars is that they combine Luxury & Performance.

If your making that much money a month I would recommend an Audi A8. Now that is a real luxury car unlike a BMW or Mercedes. This is how much I care about my Mercedes, my Cobra and my Evo get the garage treatment.
