I have a Lexus and a Benz (06 with 25k miles), and the Benz has had way more problems than the Lexus. But its also a much sexier car. I showed some of the warranty invoices to a friend of mine who works on Mercedes and he said that if I had to pay, a couple of the repairs would have been at least a couple grand. The Lexus (now at 68k) has only had a rear strut go bad, which cost about $350 to replace.
No doubt about the Benz being sexier!!!! The SL500 is a beauty!!!! ,and the lines on the S550 are even sexier. Lexus is a boring car if you have a Es,Rx,Ls. I have a Gs ,and love it just like I did the day I got it new . I am just about to hit 100k ,and I haven't dropped a dime on it other than oil changes. The big service is coming up where the water pump and timing belt need replacing but other than that its been a trouble free car. I used to be a HUGE Acura fan but there design team need to all be fired!!!! Every Damn Acura is FUGLY besides the Nsx that hasn't been made in 8 or 9 years.
