(a) I have no buyer's remorse. I am quite pleased with my 2014 ES300h.

(b) If you HAD spent a similar amount of money to get a used LS, you would've noticed QUITE a difference in ongoing operating and maintenance cost. That would probably have cured any remaining buyer's remorse.

I learned that lesson many years ago when I got a great deal on a used BMW 7 series...

We did exactly what you described. After having 4 ES models, we were looking for another and ended up low miles 2003 LS. Best ride of any car we ever had - got low 20's cruising on the interstate - not a lot different than mileage in the ES. Could barely tell engine was running - car was quiet as a mouse. BUT the RWD sucked in Indiana winters. We tried snow tires on separate rims - with little improvement in real snowy conditions. We kept the vehicle for 3 years and traded for an LX.

The ES is a great car - we have driven several of the 300H models and thought they were great. Don't worry - be happy......
