I drive back and forth to Manhattan from Wyckoff everyday. My job is going to pay the lease on a vehicle - so I'm going luxury.

I've been looking at a 2010-2011 E350 4Matic but also love the look & style of the Range Rover Sport.

Thoughts?

E350, just my 2 cents.

Honestly I would probably go Audi A6, but out of those 2 E350.

Wait, you are going to lease a used vehicle? Are you getting a flat car allowance, or are they just giving you a budget and paying whatever you decide to get? I assume you are paying the insurance since it is not a true company car?

There is a car forum with some very knowledgeable people. I would try there.

You are looking at a sedan vs an suv.

Get 'em to spring for something like this-

Best of both worlds

They are giving me a budget and, yes, I am paying for the insurance

God, the Range Rover Sport? Seriously. If anything looks like the opposite of sport, it would be this thing. It looks like a Chevy Suburban, only with pretension. Big, heavy, oversized, poor-mileage engine necessary to move its hulking weight along the road.

E350 and it's not even close.

The E350. No brainer for commute to Manhattan.

I will only add that the OP needs to do some research regarding the lack of reliability for Range Rover vehicles. Whenever reliability is quantified, this make winds up at the bottom of the heap, even lower than other traditionally unreliable makes like Jaguar.

I vote for the E350 simply on just tired of seeing so many of those tacky white 'Real NJ housewife Rovers' on the road
