Yahoo Autos Let's Make a Deal's Fabulous Car Week Starts Monday: Here's Every Car up for Grabs
You may have heard of Let's Make a Deal from the famous Monty Hall problem, a statistics brain teaser loosely based on the game's format and named after its original host. That problem historically involves a contestant picking one of three possible doors, behind which could be a dream car—or a goat. Starting Monday, Let's Make a Deal is kicking off its Fabulous Car Week, wherein one featured luxury car is a possible prize each episode. Starting Monday, January 30, and continuing each day until Friday, February 3, those prizes will consist of four luxury crossover SUVs and one luxury sedan. Here are the details on each one.
Monday, January 30: Audi Q5, $57,000 (est.)
Starting off on Monday, contestants on Let's Make a Deal—or traders, as they are referred to on the show—will be able to win an Audi Q5. The car will be up for grabs in the game Go for a Spin, with odds getting as high as one in four to win the luxury crossover. At roughly $57,000, this Q5 is likely a nice mid-trim model. We're glad it isn't the more cramped Sportback, but we can only hope it comes equipped with the stepped-up 261-hp engine configuration.
Tuesday, January 31: Lexus RX350, $56,000 (est.)
The selected trader on Tuesday will compete in the Tic Tac Deal competition in an attempt to win a Lexus RX350. The RX350 starts at a little over $48,000, but a spokesperson from Let's Make a Deal confirmed the car on the show is worth closer to $56,000. That puts it squarely into RX350 Luxury trim territory, with added luxuries like the larger 14.0-inch infotainment screen and leather upholstery, among other niceties.
Wednesday, February 1: Mercedes-Benz E350, $63,000 (est.)
