Forgive me, but I love the Lexus ES350

I know, I know...What and the Hell am I thinking? Here I am driving the best performance/luxury/value sedan out there, yet I like an "old mans" lexus easy rider. LOL Seriously, I drove one yesterday and the quality inside and out blew me away. I'm 39 years old and far past the flavor of the month "WOW" factor I had when I was 20, but I can honestly say that I've never seen a higher quality interior in a $35K sedan in all my life. The heated/ventilated seats are fabulous, the wood grain is real wood and perfectly done, and the interior space is fantastic. As for the drive, the 6-sp automatic is freaking beautiful. You seriously cannot hear anything in the cabin when you're moving at 65MPH.

I know the ES350 won't be popular with Infiniti owners, since most of us are into performance, exhaust notes, horsepower, etc. As for me, I'm a salesman who drives 25K miles/year and I could easily see myself falling in love with the ES350. It's just so solid.

I like it too but all of the new Lexus models look to much alike to me. Before I could tell them apart now I can't .
or ...
Maybe in the last few years my eyesight has gotten worse!

I really like the new ES350 too. If I could handle FWD again, it'd make a worthy trade from the G.

The all new Es350 is definetly a sharp car, the only bad part is that it's a fwd but, then again with it's L-fitness body style & it's SAE 272 hp this a big bang for the buck...

Speaking of Lexus i hope you all seen the all new 2007 Ls460/LS460L & LS600h it's looks sick...My dad already placed a order for the 460L.

If this ES had been on the market when I was shopping the G, I might very well be driving one. I couldn't get past the body style of the last one. This one I like.

I'd rather have a Lexus than a Benz or Beamer anyday. Lexus makes VERY high quality luxury cars for a very reasonable price.
