We were looking and drove the Mercedes C350 and the Saab 9 3. Mercedes lackluster acceleration and the way dealers look down on C class owners, scared us away. Besides we like the horsepower with the Lexus. That actually intrigued us enough to look and drive the car. Should be here soon, two months down.
