Obviusly, it is really dificult for anyone to know in deep three or four renderers (ok, you can, but it isn´t common) so it is dificult to find a exact comparision.

For me, one of the most importants aspects to choose one or another renderer motor is the information avaliable about them: tutorials, example scenes, etc.
I think this is important because despite de difficulty of the renderer, the most information, the more easily will be for you to master the renderer.

In this aspect, Vray wins with difference. In the OpenSource side, the Yafaray team has made a great effort to make a complete and clear documentation. This is the renderer I´m trying to learn right now.

But as your friend says, I also think that all renderers can create astonishing images (we just have to look the galleries of all the ones you have writed about!)

By the way, here you have another good comparision: http://www.blendernation.com/global-illumination-renderers-comparison/

All the best.
