Re: Luxury SUV or large sedan for $50k??
Go with the sedan...you get more for your money compared to an SUV, IMO. Unless you really need the cargo room and 4WD.
You mention the GS300, but only the V8 BMW? Why? Go for a 530i. Such a great balance between luxury and handling. The Infiniti M45 was a hot product this year, it's a great car too.
