I am helping a friend out in her efforts to buy a car. At the moment she is looking to get a used (certified preowned) Lexus IS or a Mercedes C230.

She likes the look of the Mercedes better, but has heard better things about the Lexus as far as reliability is concerned. She's concerned about the look of the car because she often has to drive clients around for work.

So her price range is around $30,000 to $40,000. I guess I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about the cheaper Lexus' and Mercedes. Which one is better? Is there a better option other than these two companies I'm not thinking of?
