A car with cachet!

It's been one month now and I'm more pleased than with any other new car purchase I've had. This car gets the looks - I've even been approached at a gas station and asked abou it. Sure, it doesn't have the horsepower of the top Maxima or Accord but the spunky torque takes you from nothing to something quickly enough. If you're undecided, here's a test - count the number of Camrys, Maximas, Accords, and Altimas you see in a day. Then count how many Diamante VR-Xs you see. That's the cachet you can't put a price on.

These suckers are hard to find, but they're a great entry luxury vehicle. Not the name cache as Lexus or Acura, but good handling and price/value ratio

Love this car. Just traded a 1999 JagXJ8 for a new Diamante. The ride in this car is quieter, I swear! For the price, this is the best mid-range luxury car I've owned. Smooth ride. Ultra-quiet and fun to drive. Beautiful look too.

good mpg, averaging 25 highway burning reg. gas w/o any negative results. emerengy brake handle is a very poor placement. on extended trips with cruise control the handle placement is always in the way of my right leg placement. repositioning it inward just an inch or so would correct problem. i am learning that re-sale value is poor. msrp was $29700 and wholesale value (acv) one year later is about $17000. most people who see and ride in this car like it but i am not sure i would purchase another diamante.
