    Love these 5th Gen ES also. If I didn’t put so much $ into replacing 20 year old OEM parts in my one owner 2002 ES300: starter, alternator, AC compressor (working but squealing) struts, exhaust flex pipe and recently brake calipers since I got it 2 1/2 years ago I would look into one of these ES350’s.
    Again maybe in 3-5 years when I retire I’ll go to a 2011-12 ES350 or a 2005-06 LS430.
    Just hard to justify after putting in about $5,500 since I bought my ES300 in April 2021.

    I just bought this model in black with black interior. It was a lease vehicle until the last 4k miles. Paid fair value for it, especially given it has only 54,500 miles. I recently gained my mom's '06 RX330 with a bit under 200k on it(and a dash crack, and I really prefer the sedan. About to refresh all the tires, oils and filters and do a bit of road tripping. That rotar wabble may improve if you remove the ABS circuit breaker it may improve.
    I like how nice that one runs with 2k more miles than the one I have ia but I appreciate the melting power of a b;ack car in a place that gets more ice glazing than snow.

    Must be very careful with the driver's side carpet. This model Lexus has had unintended acceleration which can be deadly. If the accelerator gets struck, most may panic. In which case it is critical to bring gear to neutral. The Engine will not stop with a simple press of the button and so must be pressed for a few seconds.
