Nice idea with the non-spoilers. The sales numbers and growth, decline and market share should be posted by C & D to add and non subjective data.

Nice comparison, but incomplete. They forgot both the Continental and CT6.

Boo. Too lazy to click and read pages. I'll come back to this thread when someone spoils it.

These two were #11 and #12

Saw that. There sales number should reflect a higher ranking.

And no Buick LaCrosse.

Lol. You sound like an accountant/market analyst. To take a quote from the listicle: "For when you're ready to cement your status over the 99 percent". Sounds to me like they're talking about gilded emotional luxe buyers, who could care less about how popular their vehicle is. It's C&D after all .

I think you're enjoying a good gloat over the fact that the Genesis G90 ranked higher than... I'll leave the non-spoiler in place and let people read the article.

For comparison, when C&D did this in 2004, the LS430 was #1.

Well, we've had that discussion before, here on Car Chat. Although I am not one of them, some do not consider the Lacrosse to be a true luxury sedan. I do.

OK, bit......sorry, (apparently) my bad. For some reason (?????) when I first scrolled through the slide-show, it didn't show the three domestic-brand entries.

Having said that, it's interesting that, from C&D's point of view (which usually emphasizes sportiness instead of pure-comfort) they had the regular S-Class topping the AMG version. I would normally have expected it the other way around.

Och

Should've been 7 Series, S class, A8 and then whatever the rest of irrelevant junk.
