Hey everybody!!!

Of course, we al think that BMW is the number one!!!

But who's your number 2???

The biggest competitors are af course the 2 other Germans, Benz and Audi; but to give you more choises, I also added Lexus and Jaguar!!!

Brands like Porsche, Ferrari ... make different types of cars, so they are forgotten in the poll.

I'll start with my number 2: Mercedes-Benz, without a doubt! They are the masters in comfort, and have a lot more prestige than the rest of the poll.

Greetings,

Postel

OK, here's an unpopular opinion. Have you ever noticed, given a particular class of item, that whatever people own is the best and that they will go to virtually any length to justify their position including ignoring distorting, or finding excuses for virtually all evidence to the contrary? Consistently, have you ever noticed that people suffer from irrational exuberance in regard to the things they own? So, anyway, I have no idea which is the best or even what criteria ought to be considered in making such a determination.
