The big prestigious car brands invented this concept before seeing it democratized for more accessible models. It is unthinkable today not to personalize one's car with a comfort finish pack or a sporty aluminum version to differentiate a black sedan from another dark gray sedan. So, the current challenge for the major brands is to know their customers, their expectations, to please the greatest number while taking into account the uniqueness of each one.
