Have you seen the previous version of E-class with it's nasty plastic dash? I mean yeah, it can get worse with cloth seats and lack of other tiny options but not by much.

Thumbs up

I voted for Lexus and I am not being prejudiced. I had owned Mercedes constantly since 1968 and recently bought an 04 SC 430 and an 04 LS 430.

The interior of the SC, as my wife stated looks like it should be in a high end womens leather goods store and the wood looks like it came out of a Yamaha piano shop. The color is the saddle tan.

The interior of the LS which is black exudes class. Before buying the LS I looked at a Mercedes S500 and the interior looked cheap in comparison. As far as build quality of the interior Mercedes can not even begin to compare. I also hope the Lexus will not constantly surprise me as Mercedes recently has with interior parts falling off or failing to function.

I'm going to switch up and not go by the pics. Since I have say in all of these cars, I'm going to go by how they felt when I touched them, closed my eyes to feel around, sniffed them, etc. I'll go Audi, Benz, Lexus, Jag, VW (only the Phaeton), BMW

Well Acura, Infiniti, Saab, Volvo, Lincoln have certain vehicles with nice interiors but as a whole, their product lines cannot touch Lexus, Audi, Benz or BMW. ALL their cars have outstanding interiors with high quality pieces.
