Luxury Vehicles at Bargain Prices
The luxury car market is booming, as evidenced by a recent report from consulting firm Bain & Company, which indicated that sales in the luxury car market are expected to grow by 8 percent this year. That means high net worth individuals are busy snapping up some of the hottest cars available. It should also be noted that even wealthy car buyers enjoy getting a good deal. After all, most wealthy people achieved their status, at least in part, because they are careful with their assets. So, for those looking for luxury vehicles at an affordable price, here are the top 10 luxury cars in 2016, according to Kelly Blue Book.
1. Lexus NX–$32,269
Topping the list is the Lexus NX, a smaller SUV, with lots of interior space and bold styling. This SUV is powerful and graceful at the same time and is everything you would expect from a Lexus.
2. 2016 Audi A3–$27,913
This compact luxury sport sedan offers more interior room than others in its class and comes with the lowest starting price of any other vehicle on the list. Featuring ample power, beautiful design and all the usual Audi amenities, this vehicle offers great bang for your buck.
3. 2016 Cadillac ATS–$30,730
Our first and only homegrown entry to make the list comes courtesy of Cadillac. This luxury sport sedan compares nicely to the BMW 3 series. It is fun to drive, offers excellent power and is different from anything else the company has ever rolled off the assembly line.
4. 2016 Mercedes Benz GLA–$30,249
