Funny how many see the Amg or M badge and can’t tell what’s the actual M or Amg and which is just the floor mats with the logo
Best vehicle for a person who needs to impress customers?

Not in this area, you just look as fresh off the boat as you came from another country.
I'm not too sure if Caddy would work for the 30s crowd (I know it should work for the 60s crowd here), but anything domestic, big, truck like, would probably be a bit non-fashionable in this area. Acura might be OK but they are definitely one slot below Lexus and one slot above Toyota. I'm not sure if people are impressed by E class or 5 series here anymore, they are sort of common and people wouldn't think you are flashy if you drive those, but they wouldn't look down on you if you don't have one either.
I think the range would likely be somewhere between a well maintained Camry / Accord all the way to a E class / 5 series / Model S in a fashionable brand, clean, well maintained.

Just to pick a real example from my life:
A neighbor bought a 1950 Buick 4 door something. It features a "Sit-and-Roar" transmission.
Do up one of those show style and BLOW YOUR CLIENTS AWAY for little money.

Serious answer...
High on options. Low on bling and brand. Buy a used Mitsubishi Outlander with leather seats and a solid maintenance history.
Keep it clean and waxed. That will do fine and won't hammer his wallet like a Toyonda (Toyota/Honda) or a prestige brand.

NW is probably about 3M, not really a lot of money, still have to work for a 150-200k job.
Not all when like the same things. Any male over 16 should have that figured out .
My wife for instance. A Mercedes or bmw does not impress her. A lifted Jeep or old car will.

MDX or RX. Many women like sitting high, even as passengers, and graceful ingress/egress is easier than in a sedan or wagon. These two choices are not ostentatious and show respect for one's own dollars.
Well endowed?
Well in debt?
And they know the guy in the lifted bro truck with giant rims isn't.
The ES is good if clean. Newer ES would be good also if too many cheerios in back seat.
VW Passat is always a nice car, or Jetta GLI.
But i agree with others, so long as it is clean on inside and out, that will probably be good enough. Most people don’t care, unless its memorably gross.

I see you're more of a 89 Caravan kind of guy.
From the 1930's?
This. My 05 Scion, when it came out and I was a single man was impressive even years later I would get compliments because it was clean. "Is this new?" is a question I would get occasionally. Little did they know they were sitting in a $17k car that every teen age girl purchased 6 months after it came out.

Why is this an issue for you to worry about?
This is "your friend", but you have NO IDEA what he's selling/doing. Got it.

I don't think driving a top end vehicle just to impress customers would win you any prizes other than being pimp of the year..
