When I laid my eyes on it, I immediately thought about you. The more I think about it, the more I'm thinking the Lexus is the car you're looking for.

As much as I believe the E300 would be the most reliable and cost effective, I don't think you would be happy with It's over all package. So the next most reliable car, but with more luxury and prestige would be a lexus.
The Japanese sure know how to build cars, and the Lexus is certainly the cream of the crop.
As with any car you plan on buying, make sure to have it checked over by a reputable pre-purchase inspector.

You're right on! I already have cars that require attention all the time, so I do want one car that is less demanding and in that price range. I love the LS400 in black. I don't believe there is any other color that really catches my eye.The Greens, burgandy, golds and dull greys are not on the top of my list. The only dilemma is that my heart is set on a BMW 740 iL for the driving pleasure, performance, looks etc.. but logic tells me that the Leus will be more trouble free.
If you look at my other thread:
