I'm quickly realizing this about my ES as well. My E500 4matic was an excellent, comfortable car for long trips, but this car takes it to the next level (I feel like I'm driving my leather arm chair). If Lexus ever decides to put the same seats from the LS430 (they're damn close already) in an ES, you won't beat me to be first in line for it. Certainly increases the possibility of falling asleep at the wheel though haha

I love my ES (Premium Pkg) too, I had a chance to spend time behind the wheel of an IS 250, the steering was more taught and the brake pedal felt more firm, but the ride was not a comfortable as the ES and I felt the size of the car, it was a tight fit for me, I took it back to get an ES loaner while my brakes are being done.
