$50K+ is MB E class territory. The new Cadillac doesn't start at $50K. $52K for the base 9-5 is hard to swallow, esp. in light of recent worldwide financial news.
There's also a "Honda factor" to consider. Consumers know you can buy a perfectly good new car for around $30K. So if your first # is $50+, you'd better have a super answer for the question, "What am I getting for the extra $20K?"
And this is for a car that's basically been off the American consumer's radar screen for about five years. Plus our automotive press has been quite reserved about the brand -- and those were the positive reviews.
Love my Saabs (on my 4th). But I ain't payin' no $52K for a steeply depreciating asset.
No offense. Just dealing with facts.
