If I ever get to that point in life.. where I want a car *without* a sporty suspension and handling.. someone please kill me.

I agree. These boaty cars that old people insist on driving are the reason that they take all turns at 10mph. I had always just assumed that it was because they thought their arms would break if they turned any faster, but after driving a couple of "old people cars" such as a lucerne, park avenue I now know that it's because if you turn any faster than that in one of those cars, the tires squeal, lol..

This.

When my neighbor (in her 70s) was looking for a car last year, she LOVED the Lucerne as she was coming from a Town Car. All other cars were too "harsh", the Lucerne was cushy enough for her. However, they were expensive new (~$35K)...we found a 2 year old one with like 6K miles for low 20s but she was scared of buying used.

She ended up with an Altima and has grown to love it but she's absolutely the target market for the Lucerne.

Wow. Your 70 yr old neighbor bought an Altima. She must be a cool grandma.
