What to Buy
I am new to this forum and want to ask a question; what should I buy?
My top three test drives are; 2011 Jaguar XJ, 2011 Lexus LS460 and Mercedes E550. I know that this being a Lexus forum there will be a lot of pro Lexus votes. Is there anything problematic about the 2011 LS460 I should know about? The members of this forum are very well informed and I do value your opinions.

No issues have been reported with regard to the 2011 LS460, and the car is very reliable and not demanding at all. If the rumors are true, the all-new LS is going to be out in September 2012 - 2013. So you can precisely calculate what you're getting.
As for the other two options, they are gorgeous cars and they got a new design very recently. However, you need to measure the other factors (car features, reliability, maintenance time intervals and cost, dealership quality). They all determine your experience with the car.
Then comes the test drive. Test drive them all and adjust your preference.

how would one go about doing a 30min+ test drive?
obv i know to try and drive on as many different types of road conditions as i can, but any tips on how to do this optimally?
for instance its going to be difficult to get from the dealership to an area that has good windy roads (would take at least 20mins just to get to some good twisties) and i'm not really sure how long one can reasonably expect to be allowed to test drive the car for.
guess i'm kinda rambling, but just wondering if anyone has any suggestions (the last time i test drove a car it was my audi a4 ultra sport and i had fallen in love with the car before i bought it and the test drive was pretty quick/irrelevant...i was also pretty young and impulsive) it would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!
ps: sorry mlewisfwa not trying to hijack your thread, i'm sure that any replies to my post will be beneficial to you as well.
