zeeshan66 Report post Posted March 5, 2021 What would you recommend and why. I want to get her into something with more luxury. She drives about 40 miles a day in warm Florida climate. Looking to spend somewhere in the 60-70k range. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destructo Report post Posted March 5, 2021 I'm a BMW guy, but do know those get expensive when out or warranty. So it's a draw when it comes to reliable long-term and good price. What does she want out of it? Have any particulars other than "more luxury"? What's she driving now? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's she driving now? probably something to keep for a few years within warranty. She's been an Rav 4 for 5 years so anything is better haha some things we'd like - panoramic roof - ambient lighting - driver safety features (lane departure, collision warning, auto braking etc.) - heated and ventilated seats for starters Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipster Report post Posted March 11, 2021 Alfa Romeo Stelvio. Very affordable. Good looking car with the Nero package and fun even though it's a Turbo 4. My wife has a 19 and has been a solid car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar size, good price point new, but you can option yourselves to the moon if you try :lol2: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprite Report post Posted March 20, 2021 I really love my Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. It's a lot of fun to drive and super fast for a SUV. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinnsella Report post Posted March 23, 2021 None of the above. Get a used e63s Wagon. $3.5k RENNtech tune and you have close to 800 hp/torque monster that does 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds. 1/4 quarter mile is 10.8. I have a 2020 one. Best car I have ever owned. It's not close. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GO-RAN Report post Posted March 29, 2021 Given she has a rav4, and your used to that type of reliability and money spent on service. Id say lexus RX. They might not be the most luxurious etc but they are damn nice inside. Their depreciation isnt that bad and look hella nice in some colors. I beleive they have the "F sport" model also. doubt any car aside from the volvo will be as cheap to own and reliable for the price. When you change into the "Luxury" side of SUV's its never ending. problem is latest and greatest is changing so rapidly. If you want to step into that ring go ahead but you have to keep upgrading to be satisfied. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
