In Pictures: Best Luxury Cars For The Buck - Forbes.com

What a joke that list is. First of all, it says Best "Luxury" Cars for the buck. There are 7 SUV's/Crossovers on that list, which are not considered "cars". So automatically strike the Enclave, Yukon, RX350, FX35, XC70, RX400h, & MKX off the list. Then cross off the 2 Bimmers since everybody knows how over-priced they are. Then knock the 3 Swedes off the list due to their less than stellar reliablity & resale value. So you are then left with the IS250, TL, & TT. And while these 3 seem to be worthy of the "bang for the buck" title, I'd hardly call them luxury cars due to their entry level status and small sizes. Why isn't the Cadillac CTS on that list. In fact, it should be at the very top of the list. And while we all probably think the 300 was wrongly left off the list, it really isn't a "luxury" car and thus doesn't belong either.
