ABC (American-born Chinese) here driving an '04 Aero wagon (stick).
My observation living in LA (grew up in the Midwest)is that most of the Asians on the Left Coast tend to go for Mercedes, BMW, Lexus for the luxury brands. Seems to me that the majority of Asians on the West Coast are recent/1st generation immigrants and gravitate to those brands due to 2 main reasons: 1) They are more familiar with these brands from their home countries and/or 2) Those brands are much more conspicuous in proving to others/peers that that the owner is wealthy or has "made it". Thus, their popularity among many immigrant groups, not just Asians.
Know of many Asian immmigrants that live in modest communities in the San Gabriel Valley, or still live at home with their parents, but have to drive a "Benz" to impress.
