Better than the Lexus I was looking at for a much better handling and more luggage space vehicle.

Too expensive for what you get.

for 60k the 5 series seems a bit pricy compared to what you can get from even an acura TL for instance.

I paid cash, but they do not usually offer incentives on the 5 series. That may have changed in this economy but the 5 series has few incentives.

Very expensive car 90K CDN or 60K USD new. Very pricey for a car.
20024dr Sedan 225-horsepower 3.0L I6

Compared to the implicit value of Genesis, BMW simply charges too much for what you get...$25K delta just not justifiable.

still a high payment

There’s a lot of car to be had for the money here, especially for the 2.0T models. The CC is economically priced, but is more than comparable to other entry-level luxury brand cars.

4Motion can be had only on the 3.6VR6 model, which is far too expensive to compete effectively in its segment. For the price of a 3.6 4Motion, you might as well save up a little more for an Audi. 2.0T models are well worth the price of admission though.
20094dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4

somewhat higher than expected, even the base model.

I drove both the 3 & 5 series - 328x is far too small inside & materials are worse than my Honda Pilot. The 5 series was a lot better, about as good as my Jetta, but no close to the quality of the Audi (which was $30000 less).

There is a reason why VW charge a premium over its Japanese and American rivals. The materials used in the CC (and other VW cars in general) are the absolute best in its segment. German cars are designed to perform and look great while doing it.

Very disappointed with the interior plastic componenents and trim. Squeaks like an old wooden ship over bumps, acclerating and braking. Sunroof needed to be replaced because of noise. The new one still squeaks. I've had to wedge felt and neoprene foam between gaps and joints to quiet the squeaks
