Default Need some opinions!!!

Hey guys well I am new here. I have been looking at purchasing some CPO cars after selling my Z and can't quite make my decision so I thought I would seek for some opinions. The cars of choices are 2011/2010 Lexus is250(20to30k miles), 2011/2012(10to20k miles) Acura TSX, and 2010/2011 Mercedes C300(15to20k miles). My price range is under $27k maybe 28k. Previously owning motorcycles and such I can fix easy stuff if anything happens, but I'd rather have a car that doesn't really need to go into the stealership for anything other than those long term services. Mainly I will be using the car as DD and I really like them all but I'm leaning towards the Mercedes, only thing stopping me is their reliability. And in the case I leave the country my mom will be using it, she runs a restaurant and she goes shopping for the ingredients often so a larger trunk would be better. So what do you guys think??

IMO the IS trunk is not very roomy.

Don't the IS250's have the carbon buildup issues? I was thinking about getting a used IS250 but decided against it due to this very reason.
