- I think that Q45 is better value for your money than BMW535i or BMW735i.
- There is no argument to the fact that Germans were making the best cars
- in the world ( for a price, of course).
- But in the end of '89, when TOYOTA and NISSAN entered the luxury market
- with LS400 and Q45 that ended that era.
- Combination of performance, quality, comfort, reliability and price is
- what brought customers to them.
- Just look at the numbers of cars sold by Germans before and after '90.
- Also look into J.D.Powers customer satisfaction ratings.
- Germans are fighting back. Look at 400E and 740i, but the new generation
- of LEXUS and INFINITI is only 2 years away.
- Most car magazines in the world agreed with the facts listed above.
-
- Just because something or somebody was the BEST at one time, doesn't
- mean it will stay that way forever.......
- ( GM in '50s is one example ).
