Last year, Americans bought just over 500,000 new luxury cars, accounting for just over three percent of total new light-vehicle sales. Priced above $34,000, luxury cars represent an ideal of comfort, security, prestige and elegance. In recent years, luxury car sales had slowed as a growing number of luxury sport utilities have taken their place on the road.
