Luxury Cars in Demand
carazoo.com asked:
The Indian car market is already on the high boom and the demand for the luxury car market are growing in a fast pace.
Tata Nano, the people’s car has invaded the car market but not in the luxury car segment in India. There are no bounds for a car lovers’ passion for the finest dream machine on wheels to find their way to the cellars of the rich and famous.
Luxury carmakers have done a thorough study on the Indian buyers and the Indian car market and are aware of their choice and desires of their dream car. And that help them to move steadily with their plans to manufacture and / or sell luxury cars for the Indian market. The study reveal that, the current market for the luxury cars in India is estimated 4,500-5,000 units per annum, which is expected grow to 10,000 units by 2010.
Audi A4 sedan will be rolling out in India from Audi India. This new generation model was launched recently launched in Europe and now it is being brought to India simultaneously. Initially the car will be imported but will carry the price of a locally assembled car.
Mitsubishi Motors will be also rolling out its luxury sedan, the Lancer Evolution X by early 2009. Currently Mitsubishi does not have any plan to manufacture this luxury sedan locally and so it will be completely imported. This would mean that the price of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X will be very high. The price of Lancer Evolution X is priced close to Rs 13 lakh globally. But with the imposed duties on import, the cost may go up to Rs 21.70 – Rs 23.5 lakh.
Ferrari one of the big car brands is expected to hit the Indian roads by 2010 and this decision was taken after the Magic India Discovery tour. After the thorough study of the Indian market, Ferrari decided to enter the Indian car market very soon.
May be, the growing demand prompted style guru, Dilip Chabria to showcase his super luxury concept car ‘Amberoid’, that was displayed recently held Auto Expo in New Delhi. This Amby tcosts a neat Rs4 crore.
Amby is adorned with a sleek instrument panel backed by a satellite navigation system, rear vision camera, three LCD televisions, Internet and videoconferencing-enabled flat bed and multi-coloured mood lighting, now this is what we call it as a royal ride!

Luxury Automakers Offer High-end Holiday Treats
Joe Ratzkin asked:
Think of the pricey luxury cars. You think they are hard to own because they are expensive? Not anymore – because luxury brands are offering high-end holiday treats for their customers.
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is offering a limited-edition Phantom. This offer though is exclusively at its Beverly Hills dealership. Six Phantoms were created to serve said purpose. These vehicles feature mother of pearl inlays, chrome 21-inch wheels, commemorative plaques and lounge seat DVD system – all for $370,000 each.
On the one hand, Mercedes Benz also produced Signature Edition CL600 luxury coupe. It is offered exclusively through Saks Fifth Avenue’s holiday catalog. They are priced at $160,000 each. Mercedes made 20 CL600s and all of them were sold in less than 8 minutes on Nov. 14. Also, just last Friday, 3 of the 6 special-edition Phantoms remained at dealerships.
Luxury auto brands are hoping that executives would spend their year-end bonuses on new cars for themselves as well as for their dear ones. It is also apparent that automakers have given their incentive offers full blast and kicked their TV ads. This move is made with high hopes of making potential customers to press their purchase button. “We are in a unique position with the stock market being so strong this year,” said Chris Marchand, western regional manager for Rolls-Royce. “We think it’s a great opportunity with the Beverly Hills edition and with Rolls-Royce in general, to get people in the dealerships and in a Rolls-Royce. We want to be the luxury vehicle of choice for the people who have the disposable income to spend on something like this.”
One of the purchasers of Phantoms is Hal Taines, an oil and gas exploration executive. He bought the vehicles as a holiday gift got his wife. “The hook was when I got in to drive the car,” Taines said. “I couldn’t believe. It drove like any car I’ve ever owned except it has the Rolls-Royce luxury and ride. It was just like riding on glass or on ice. And it does everything but brush your teeth. I wrote a check.”
Paul Taylor, chief economist for the National Automobile Dealers Association said, “Certainly, the purchase of cars as gifts had been a growing phenomenon in recent years.” Recent studies have also found out the direct correlation between the sales of luxury vehicles and the performance of stock market. Taylor added said correlation made this year’s holiday season a strong one. Dodge luxury vehicles and new Dodge auto parts are also showing increase in demand along with the Jaguars.

The Best Ways To Test Out A Luxury Car
Gray Rollins asked:
Luxury cars offer drivers the smoothest, most comfortable rides and have some of the most advanced engineering of any vehicles on the road. Many drivers and passengers alike wish that they could experience these beautiful driving machines, but only a select few people can count themselves lucky enough to own these exquisite cars that cost quite a pretty penny. If you are contemplating the purchase of a luxury car, you will want to be certain that your money is well spent.
Although there are plenty of consumer guides to luxury cars that can give you important information about things like safety statistics and gas mileage for various models of cars, there are a few things that no guide can tell you. Some of those things include which luxury car’s design is most suited to your driving style; which car’s controls will be the most intuitive for you to use; and which car will be the most satisfying for you to drive. This means that you will want to spend some time behind the wheel of your luxury car of choice before you sign on the dotted line.
There are two ways to try out a luxury car before you buy. One is to take a test drive, and the other is to take out a short term rental on the car you are considering purchasing. Each of these choices has its own advantages and disadvantages. A test drive is free, which makes it more attractive to many drivers. A rental can cost quite a bit of money, even if you only rent the luxury car in question for a week or a few days. However, a test drive is rarely more than half an hour long, which can severely limit the kind of experience you can have in the car you are considering the purchase of. A rental offers a longer time frame that will allow you to really get to know the ins and outs of your potential car, allowing you to make a truly informed decision. With a rental, you will be able to travel the streets you normally traverse through the course of your day. This will give you a realistic picture of what it would be like to navigate and park with the luxury car you are contemplating.
Although in this way a rental is highly preferable to a test drive, a rental isn’t always a practical or possible choice. Often, consumers who are comparing different luxury cars are interested in the hottest, newest cars on the market. These kinds of vehicles are often in great demand, which means that they are not likely to make it onto the lot at your local rental outlet. In these cases, try to get your dealer to allow you a longer test drive than the average customer. Occasionally, a salesperson will be willing to let you try a luxury car for up to twenty four hours. So even if a rental isn’t an option, you may still be able to give the car a thorough spin around your neighborhood.
