Need some input gang

I may be switching up careers and there will be some driving
involved "commute" , looks like a couple of hundred miles a day.
What cars are you all enjoying for your daily distance driving?

At this stage For obvious reasons I am leaning toward A8L
any suggestions?

Acura is coming out with a new RL that looks pretty cool and also will have AWD....might be worth it to wait a little while and look at that. It would be alot cheaper than the A8 in price and at the gas pump.

My choice would be the Maserati Quattroporte, the A8 and the S55 are both nice choices but IMO the Maserati Quattroporte is in a class of its own.

I also love the Prius it’s a fugly car but if you are budget conscious that’s definitely the car to go with.
