Mercedes. Hands down.

The C is a great car. It is more comfortable than the BMW and looks better than the Lexus, inside and out. The Benz has no orange or yellow lighting on the inside. Pearl white. It is class.

MB had some issues over the last years, trying to stay competitive and compromised their quality over parts, not on purpose, but they are back to European parts and not Indian ones. Stupid move, they have corrected it.

Reliability wise, the IS is in its first year and having troubles that most Lexi don't have. They will work this out, but it is nothing serious.

If the C class is the poor mans Mercedes...what does that make the IS?

And to the guy who tried to compare the IS with any AMG, he does not know what he is talking about. There are a lot of incorrect things on this page, but that is the winner.

Go Mercedes. It is a great car. And if it matters to the buyer (and if they say it doesn't then I don't believe them) no one ever says...'oooooh, you got a Lexus?!?!?' A Merc is class, even the C.

Let me say this, the BMW is a great car, you either like the new body style or you don't.

Overall, I like them all. They are fantastic, MB, Lexus, BMW, and maybe Infiniti. If you are dropping that kind of cash on a car, you have to wake up in 3 years and still love it. Nail it down to two, then pick the one that looks the best to you.
