MB CLS OR LEXUS GS
I can't make up my mind.
Well well, it is time for me to purchase another car. I am giving up the coupe world for a while.
After much research the two cars it has come down to is a MB CLS or LEXUS GS.
It's obvious I value everyone opinion here b/c I seem to visit the website everyday. Everyone let me know your honest opinion. Remember the cars cost about the same used, so price is not a problem.
MB CLS:
PROS:
Exterior
Prestige
Nice Acceleration/a blast to drive
Cons:
Small for a 4 door car/Not a big deal
Poor Radio
Below standard interior, compare to my MB CL500
Insurance a little higher
LEXUS GS
PROS:
Reliability
Radio
I like the interior
More room
Low Key
CONS:
I do not care for the exterior.
Feel sluggish
Less prestige
Not that exciting to drive

If you want something like a CLS but with a much better interior and more room, why not get an E? The E is extremely elegant and still understated, I cannot find many faults if any with that car. Either way, the GS, like any Toyota product, reminds me more of an appliance than a car.

I'm looking at a GS430 or GS450H. I just found a CLS55 at my local dealership for 53K so I may try my best to purchase this car this weekend. I honestly can't see myself in a E unless it's a 55 or 63. It's too many regular E classes rolling around DC.

Well then your choice is obviously not based on finding the most suitable car for your purpose, rather a status symbol...
