Luxury Car

Cars is a common mean of transportation besides public transportation, such as trains and buses. Since it's arrival in 1672 by Ferdinand Verbiest, Car has evolved so much by design and also by usage. Nowadays, it's common to see people who have more than one car on their house. Even i have a friend who has eight cars on his garage not worthy

There are so many car types. You have city cars, sports cars, and luxury cars. Each category has it's own product and market share. For normal people, they might choose city cars, because they would use it for daily activities and they don't need cars who runs 160 KM/hours in downtown. For those who often travels to other city, they might want to take the sports car, because time is money for them and late is not an options.

  2. Very good commentary on cars, especially the BMW, a high end luxury car. One thing that should be mentioned are economical cars, such as the Honda Civic which is probably the most popular economical car in the USA right now. BMW does not make economy cars such they focus on a highend clientele. But, I would consider BMW if I decided I wanted a luxury car.
