What's the "same category", though? Who gets to decide that? Is a Mercedes-Benz E Class / BMW 5 Series / Audi A6 the "same category" as a Ford Falcon, even though it is highly unlikely that these cars will be cross-shopped against the Falcon?

Or what about the Bentley Flying Spur / Rolls-Royce Ghost ... "same category" as a Holden Caprice V?
