Default funny little talk with a mechanic

so today i was dropping off my friend at a local mechanic. he's a very very good mechanic and really know what he's doing, those of you in norcal will know who he is.

anyway, he didn't know i got the sc430 until today, and we were talking about it.

"that's your new car?"
"yeah i got the sc430"
"that's very nice.... you know, the sc430, gs3/4, and the ls430... they are pretty much the only cars that i will call completely flawless in the whole market right now"
"really? that's good to know"
"yeah, these cars really have no problem at all. you do your maintenance and that's it"
"wow, glad that i got this car then. how about cars like infiniti?"
"well, for starters mb (he has the new e320) and bimmer they are horrible, forget about it, they will just come in time after time period. infiniti is a lot better, but still you get small problems here and there, it's no match to lexus"

man do i feel good

I didn't know you got a new car.
You plan on trading in your GS for the new one?

Henry, we already know all this. That's why we all drive a Lex. Don't need a mechanic to tell you that.
