umm i have driven top end tauri (plural for taurus) and they are very VERY luxurious. i would rather have a taurus than an infinity because of the price and the styling...i dont care too much for the styling of the new infinities...



But have you ever driven a high-end Infiniti?

Not to diss on the Taurus, because I like the car, but there is simply no comparison there.

Is it worth the price different to me personally? No. But most Infiniti owners wouldn't be caught dead in a Taurus.

Likewise, most Ford owners couldn't afford the Infiniti. Which is the point of this thread. A Taurus with European quality would be priced like an Infiniti, and Taurus buyers are NOT Infiniti buyers, they are $17,000 car buyers. If they had $40,000 they'd be that Infiniti, but they don't. If you price a Ford at $40,000 they'll simply buy a Malibu or Sebring or whatever the comparison would be.
