What You Should Know About The 3 Top Selling Luxury Compacts.

The 2009 model year is ending and with the economic turn downwards automakers are pushing to sell their excess inventory and are offering huge deals on luxury vehicles. Because of the high mark up of a luxury vehicle you the consumer can get a new luxury vehicle for base invoice pricing or even below if you work it rite. There are a few good options for the entry level luxury vehicle, the Infiniti G35, the Acura TL and the best of the three the Mercedes Benz C class.

The Infiniti G35 is really produced by Nissan and is an upgraded version of the Maxima. IT offers everything you would want in a luxury car except the luxury. The Infiniti G35 has amazing handling, a great safety record and a beautifully designed exterior. However the car is more like your basic Nissan with leather seats, guess that is how they make those huge profits over at Nissan. It sells new for thirty thousand dollars for the basic model and has a base invoice price of twenty eight thousand dollars.

The Acura TL is one of the best overall entry level luxury sedans. It has an amazing 286-hp 3.5-liter V6 engine that might get you into to trouble on the highway with police. But the comfortable ride and great suspension lets you know you are in a luxury vehicle at all times. One thing that is lagging is the interior again it is just like Honda threw in some leather seats, the interior is probably the least desirable design of any luxury car on the market today. It retails for thirty five thousand dollars for the basic model but has a base invoice price of twenty nine thousand dollars.

The Mercedes C class is nothing short of breath taking and one of the best designed cars Mercedes has ever produced. The car would probably be on back order if it were not for the economic down turn. But if you are one of the few that has the cash to spend then you are in luck because Mercedes has slashed all its prices to unload their excess inventory.

If you end up buying new hold your ground when bargaining a little extra patience can save you thousands of dollars. The used luxury market is a sketchy one at best so make sure you bring along a mechanic, car dealerships love making body repairs to cover up previous accidents or restoring totaled ones.
