Although I do understand and agree with most of your comments, a 'feeling' of luxury is in the 'feel' of the beholder. Who definds how 'luxury' should feel? I've owned a BMW (740iL) and a Lexus (SC400). They were both luxury cars and felt great. My new 08' V6 accords 'feels' of no less luxury than either of those two cars. So, if some of the people online 'here' in this forum says that their car 'feels' luxurious to them who are any of us to say that it does not? My BMW kept me in the shop so often that I 'felt' like cracking the service managers head open...lol
