"Two cars are luxury" or "Two cars is luxury"

Question

Here is the sentence,

I'm getting rid of one of my cars, because two cars are/is luxury

I think the latter is correct, because two cars together constitutes to luxury. In case of,

Cars are luxury

Here even having one car constitutes to luxury.

Please tell me if I'm right or wrong here.

Does this answer your question? 'Is too many', 'are too many' or something else? 'Six children is too many' is a common employment of notional agreement ('A person having six children? That is [just] too many.') The six children are regarded as a composite unity. But I'd rephrase 'Two cars is two many' as it sounds faintly ridiculous. — Edwin Ashworth, Oct 17 '21 at 15:21

I dare not say you're right or wrong. Here are my suggestions: I'm getting rid of one of my cars, because having two cars is a luxury or I'm getting rid of one of my cars, because having two cars is luxurious. Hope my suggestions are helpful.
