If he doesn't appreciate the higher abilities of the BMW, then the Lexus would be a no-brainer choice. If he finds the Lexus' limits during his test drive (heh heh, imagine face of Lexus salesman ) then he'll want the Bimmer and there won't be any question in his mind about the choice.

*MOST* people really just want a good appliance that gets them around, so I'd bet on his taking the Lexus.
Mate, come on really, who drives a luxury car like a race car on the streets. The lexus ride and handling are fine.
Can BMW 5 series make up its mind *** to what it would like to be... a luxury car or a sports car, trying to be both is a compromise. And a compromise means missing out on something!
