This morning while I was extracting some bits from the interweb, I came upon a click-bait site, sponsored by KBB  , No, don't click it. It's an inconsequential site that forces you to look through 11 pages to get to the end and find out which is the "best" luxury car under $35,000. You see a lot of sites like this, from "The ten things you should never tell your wife" Or "You won't believe these compromised celebrity pix, especially # 345".

I get it. Really I do.Content writers get paid by the click, so sites will try to raise up their click counts in order to make their money. Usually it takes one or two clicks before you know you've been had.

I wanted to believe. I wanted to believe that Kelley Blue Book, a respected reference resource at one time, would take the high road and give you a straight up article delineating 10 cars worthy of your consideration. But no, this was a waste of time. I figure others, like me would be eager to see if the list held any secrets to reveal from the automotive market. We're all within a few short years of needing another car, and this kind of information might be good for future reference.

Unfortunately, KBB wants you to labor through all eleven slow loading and advertising infested pages. I was one of the unfortunate many who waded through every slide. However, when I saw it was a click bait trap, I decided to make the best of it. I pirated the list.

So, as a public service, I present to you, totally click and ad free, Kelley Blue Books' idea of the 10 best luxury cars under $35,000. Remember, power windows may not be included. Notice that almost half of the vehicles aren't even actually cars, so it's not an honest list. It is however, free; and hey, it's not even my list, so cut me a break.

Without further ado, I present KBBs 10 best luxury cars under $35,000.

10. 2018 Acura TLX
9. 2018 Buick Regal Sportback
8. 2018 Audi Q3
7. 2018 Mercedes CLA
6. 2018 Acura RDX
5. 2018 Mercedes GLA
4. 2018 Cadillac ATS
3. 2018 Audi A3
2. 2018 Lexus NX
1. 2018 Infiniti Q50

Aren't you glad you saved the 11 clicks and minutes of suspense?
