If I want to sit in something luxurious, I will just sit in my couch. May be when I am 60 and I my bones starts creaking, I will change my mind.

When it comes down to the car I want the most it would be the Bugatti Veyron, which is considered a sports car. On the other hand, I can see myself driving an S-class everyday more so then a sports car. When I was younger (not that I’m old now) I wanted nothing but sports cars. Really didn’t even care for sedans. Now I’m more excited about an 65 AMG S-class then a Ferrari. Yes, I’m still very passionate about “some” new sports cars, but I am more enthusiastic about Luxury cars.

Basically both segments I like, but right now I would probably take a Bentley Mulsanne over a Ferrari right now….But if I could have both, I would. So Luxury gets my vote.

As much as I love sportcars the Luxury vehicle is perfect for me. Wouldn't go for a Rolls though, but for a Bentley. Power combined with luxury and comfort…nearly as fast as a Sportscar but with much more elegance and understatement.

It's amazing that even though some of us love Luxury cars, we still need to have that element of sport to it.

Sports, btw i don't consider the Veyron to be a sports car symbol, i would classify it more as a luxury car than a real sport car.

Luxury!

Luxury will must have power, that is the major ingredient for performance! Hence, it covers sports! Sports doesn't not always have luxury!

Phantom is capable to do 0-60 in around 5 & a half seconds! But unlike Phantom, your performance crazy cars doesn't come with massage-seats!

Until I get old or have kids, I'm going with sports. Honestly though, even if I get old, I'll still want sports cars because by the time I'll be able to afford a Ferrari or Lambo, I'll be old.

80 years old in a Lambo...I don't know if your heart could take it.
