Just because you do not like American cars, do not trash every American make just because they are American. As a matter of fact, the newest Cadillacs debuted to worldwide acclaim, and as far as I know, the new Lincoln's are very well regarded also. If the OP wants to drive American luxury, and that will make him happy, do not rain on his parade.
