2015 q60?
Ok so by ur understanding, then watever car u deem to be luxury today will no longer be luxury as it ages n techology n offerings get better. So then no car is or will be considered luxury then?
Yes as the auto industry changes and materials/designs/manufacturing evolves, things that are considered luxury today will be standard or even obsolete in future offering.
Yes there are many cars that are considered to be luxury vehicles as of today. 10-20 years down the line (some cars age better than others), those same cars will be driven by high school kids and will no longer be considered luxury vehicles. Instead there will be new cars that are better made, high quality materials, more features, more luxurious.
DOMO
^that is the dumbest perspective ever. so the title "luxury car/brand" doesn't exist then if everyone thought like u. no car out there could ever by considered a luxury car lol.
I get ur trying to be the g35 rebel on here and display ur dislike for the car but your so delusional that it doesn't even make sense anymore.

-Are there luxury cars on the road today? YES
-Did I ever once say there is no such thing as luxury car? NO
-Is luxury a subjective adjective? YES
-Do intelligent people's defintition of luxury (and other subjective terms) change over time? YES
-Just because something may be considered luxury when it is made, does it mean it will be considered luxury forever? NO
OK Now lets use some very simple examples to check your understanding.
-If a TV company sold a TV in 2004 with descriptions like advanced picture, high-definition 720p, ultra slim bezel, ect. Would people use those same descriptions to describe that same TV today?
Samsungs top TV released in 2004.

-If a Headphone company sold some headphones in 2004 with descriptions like crystal-clear sound, luxurious padding, low distortion, ect. Would people use those same descriptions to describe those same headphones today?
One of Sennheiser top headphones in 2004.

seems your puny brain is not able to comprehend the fact that luxury has a lot to do with brand than with function. u think those $1k LV bags cost anywhere near that to build or gives $1k worth of functions? luxury branding is exactly wat it sounds like. its branded as being luxury therefore carries a higher price tag even though its functions the same as its less expensive comparables.
seems u think the only determinant of luxury is function. theres a reason why companies spend so much to build their brand image. people don't buy luxury items solely bc its better. they do it for the appeal it provides.

Lamborhini also makes tractors, does that mean they are automatically luxury vehicles too? Mercedes makes semi trucks, are they automatically luxury vehicles too? Mercedes makes the sprinter ambulance, is it a luxury ambulance? Mini coopers are made by BMW, Smart cars are made by Mercedes... are they luxury?
You are a fool to think simply name is what determines luxury or not, especially considering you drive a Nissan.
What about non luxury badge cars? You going to tell me the Hyundai Equus is not a luxury car? The VW Phaeton not count as luxury? Lincoln MKS not luxury either?
im not saying brand is everything but it is the name of the game. that's how luxury markets work. its wat companies can make the general public believe. regardless if u believe it or not that luxury belief will always be there.
they could sell a pen with a Nissan logo or with an infiniti logo. doesn't matter that they both do and look the same. but the one with the infiniti logo will be cooler jus bc it has the infiniti logo. that's jus the name of the game. im not saying I believe it. but if that's wat its marketed as and carries the price tag to go with it then cant really argue with it. if u don't believe it just don't buy it.
that's like someone trying to argue that Nissan is a luxury brand in the states. the only reason it is not is bc Nissan didn't market their brand that way. even tho they offer the same **** and parts on both Nissan and inifinit vehicles. infiniti is marketed as their luxury brand so that's wat it will be no matter wat. even in japan their started to separate the Toyotas from the lexus. im guessing Nissan will do the same soon if they haven't already. its all marketing man

oh and the example u gave regarding benz and their trucks or whatever. yes if it carries the logo then it probably carries the price tag so it is deemed luxury and probably the luxury version of whatever the other truck companies offer
No that is now how luxury works. Again only in the minds of children and fools does a name dictate.
I had to quote this for the lolz. Sad that there are people out there that actually believe this.
Marketing is nothing more than companies trying to tell dumb people what to think. Those with the capability to think for themselves will evaluate a vehiche for what it actually is and not just the plastic badge on the trunk.
Here ya go, I found a nice luxury pen for you.

I agree with u but like I said that's jus the name of the game. that is why I don't spend my money on overpriced things. but Im also not gonna be going around saying something isn't luxury jus because it doesn't do something or have something compared to another product.
I don't go around driving my g like its a bad *** luxury car. to me its just a regular car that's hella nice. I didn't buy it bc I thought it was luxurious. but im not gonna argue and say it isn't "techinically" a luxury car sold by a luxury brand. but no matter wat u like or dislike about the car it was marketed as luxury so technically it is wat it is
