For me... Quite hesitant, but i'd pick the ultra big LS model from Lexus...

man.. if I had the money to burn (and it'll be soon!) I would pick the Lexus LS (no questions asked) coz when it comes to reliabilty and overall quality, nothing beats a Lexus.

I have driven a bunch of Mercedes-Benz (and I also work on them.. coz Im a mechanic) and all I can say is that nowadays, specially from the 2000 model up to the current model.. and whatever class it is *except from the AMG models* is that their quality and reliablity is poor (check out Consumer Reports). but, the older Mercedes-Benz vehicles (before the 2000 model) is better and they are more reliable and much more luxurious (in overall quality, like the: Interior, Exterior, Handling, Braking, etc..).


anywayz, to break it down. I'd take a Lexus (any model) from a Mercedes-Benz (except from the AMG model) any day of the week. and thats the same with BMW's, Audi's or Jaguar's.

I'd rather enjoy my Lexus and drive it all day, any day. instead of having a german car being stuck in the STEALership coz its broken down and they have to always fix it.


aite, peace.


PS: and that statement is from me, who is a "die hard" Mercedes-Benz owner & enthusiast, specially back in the day.
