2007 IS350 or 2005 C55?
Well, i'm actually considering buying instead of leasing this time.
If i do plan to buy I'm looking at about a 42k car.
For that price I could get the fast C55 AMG benz 2005...
Anyone care to enlighten me on your choice?
Thanks

meh im gonna have to say the benz performance wise. As for reliability, my mother had an old e-class wagon which we traded in towards my is, and it was starting to leak oil at around 100,000 (not bad tho, and still ran fine). (not to mention the AC went at 100,000 and all of the moving plastic parts in the interior would just break when you touched them. When we trade it in I believe it had about 130 some thousand on it.

Most likely better than a Lexus. Yeah, probably more electrical gremlins on the MB over time. But structurally, and as far as parts being designed to be stronger and last longer, the MB would win my vote.
