    the lexus LS430 is under rated. its a very nice car. i dont know about handling & driving pleasure. whereas the S500 looks better & has more class. but i'll still go with lexus on this one

    wouldnt ls430 vs s430 be a much better comp? come on

    The Mercedes-Benz S500 intended to replace the S430 some time ago, altough you can still buy the S430 for some reason. Anyway Jaguar XJ8 4.2 Sovereign for me.

    Yes that would be my vote too, if included. Those big Jags impress me for price, weight, & calm styling

    Otherwise out of Lexus or S-Class I'd rather get familiar with the Benz, and most probably the M-B service manager

    If had unlimited money I would probably grab the Merc. But if I were a regularr person looking for a car in that catagory I would take the Lexus. I'm pretty positive it's better on fuel and doesn't cost a fortune to maintain.

    LS430, although if you wanted a Asian looking car you could go for either with Merc these days. The Merc has a stupid voice recignition system (Anyone who has seen Top Gear when J.C Reviews one will understand), The LS430 is simply flawless, incredibly reliable, and if I wanted, the ol' Lexus V8 can be tuned very well.
