What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Audi A5 / S5

Price of the Audi A5 / S5: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 2dr Coupe turbocharged 211hp 2.0L I4
6-speed manual AWD		 More expensive than competitors
2009 2dr Coupe turbocharged 170hp 2.0L I4 Diesel
6-speed manual AWD		 Price is too high. The quality of the car when taken to the test, does not justify the price.
2008 2dr Coupe 354-horsepower 4.2L V8
6-speed manual AWD		 Expensive base price as compared to a 335i (but still less than a 650i). Horrible leasing factors leave buying as the only real option.
2008 2dr Coupe 265-horsepower 3.2L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Too much money for some.
2008 2dr Coupe 265-horsepower 3.2L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 A little too high, but worth it

What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Lexus RX

Price of the Lexus RX: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2004 4dr SUV 230-horsepower 3.3L V6
5-speed automatic FWD		 Best value luxury brand SUV bar none.
Price of the Lexus RX: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.5L V6 Hybrid
6-speed shiftable CVT AWD		 The price is very high if compared to a Mazda CX-9, with similar features, similar performances and similar (i guess) reliability
2009 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 more than $12000 more than the Murano with all the same bells and whistles
2008 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD		 Overpriced
2008 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD		 all of the above come with a price tag, which, over the long term, balance out with hopefully lower maintenance and operating costs
2006 4dr SUV 208-horsepower 3.3L V6 Hybrid
CVT AWD		 This can be an expensive car. I would never buy one new and while I think there is value for money, I have issues with spending 55k on a car. I bought mine used on Ebay for a great price including shipping and have a friend who has done the same.
