I fall into this camp now as being in my late 60's my next car will be Japanese and hopefully rock solid. Am looking at a used Lexus RX350 but had considered the BMW x1, VW Tiguan or an Audi. These latter three makes new are all priced between upper $30k to $40+ Canadian. Am not willing to risk them. Yep I know life is short but each one of these makes gives me an excuse not to have one.

Coming from an old Boxster I need comfortable seats and a soft ride. I want to sit high, decent cupholders, lots of space and unlike the X1 I will have room for a real spare tire!
The Lexus NX is up for display mid September and will look at that . This suv starts in the low $40k Can but suspect I will gravitate towards the used RX350. Xmas is coming early this year and with cold temperatures coming up I want a car that is reliable. Oh yes the Certified Lexus comes with a 2 year warranty! So what is it going to be for you German and fun or utilitarian Japanese?
