Thanks for the input! I've owned Acura and Lexus and never had any major issues. All things equal, i would probably lean towards Lexus. But the model year, AWD and miles may be worth the extra ~$2600.
Although I have owned Acura and liked them, in this case I might go with the Lexus if you don't need the AWD. The Lexus will be more reliable.
I have owned ES300, RX330 and LS400. Lexus is very dependable and cheap to maintain. However if you require AWD where you live then I'd go with the Acura. Being a Honda product it will surely give you similar reliability.
