Wow. Yeah that sucks I instantly fell and love with this car on the test drive. I look forward to many years with this car. What you thinking about getting to replace it?

Thats exactly what happened for me. I was looking for a Maxima or Altima, went to a lot to look at an Altima that was in rough shape and noticed the ES300 sitting there. Someone (not a sales person) grabbed me some keys and that one drive was all it took.

The eventual replacement is gonna be a 2011 or newer IS 250 AWD. I would love an IS 350, but they're a bit more pricey and way harder to find.
