I think Lexus has been helped by the diesel IS while BMW has been tarnished by its sheer commonality - there are too many 116, 118ds and 320ds. I went to my local BMW dealer and there were row upon row of 320ds.

Maybe not where you come from. But where I live, if you can afford an $85000 car, you're doing pretty damn well. $60-70k/yr is pretty damn good pay around here and that'd be the minimum I'd have to be making to even consider purchasing something in that price range. (Keep in mind, avg salary in alabama is under $18k/year -- much of which is associated with cost of living)

We have a lot of people who have wealth down here. They save their money in the bigger cities, then pay for a NICE house in cash (or a small loan over 15yr) and invest the rest. They then take a lesser paying job. Tradeoff is living in such a nice home in nicer parts of the city.
I have a friend in LA who makes around $45k/yr and she can barely afford a home.
