Super Luxury Sector
Just found out about this through steam today and as a current automotive engineering student at university it sounds really interesting! 
I'm currently on placement at Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and was therefore wondering how luxurious we can make cars? The field is dominated by V12s (DB9, V12 Vantage, Phantom, Ghost) and advanced suspension set-ups as well as huge amounts of leather and wood. They also tend to have a bespoke element to them with more unique features (uplit Spirit of Ectasy anyone?) than 'normal' luxury cars.
The sector doesn't tend to make massive sales but is definately a halo brand for both VW (Bentley) and BMW (Rolls-Royce) and each car sells for huge amounts of money.
