Hmm. I must be in the minority here..I keep the seat warmers on a very long time, and I keep the steering wheel heat on all the time in winter. Matter fact it annoys me that it shuts off in 30 minutes.

Living in Canada I have plenty of days where seat/wheel warmers are very much appreciated.

I have a 2013 ES UL and my steering wheel heaters work great. No, they are not toasty, probably not designed to...but come on fast. I turn them off after a couple minutes when the cabin starts to get warm. For the seat heaters, the ES has "carbon heaters". Not sure what that means, but I turn mine on high until I feel it then turn it down to low and it works great. My previous 2003 Acura TL (2003 was a good car!) I must've short circuited the seat heater because it got insanely hot and then never worked again. The car was out of warranty so I didn't bother getting it fixed. But that makes me not keep my Lexus heaters going on high for long so I don't burn them out.

I, too, would very much like to have the power folding mirrors that come with the ES300h in Europe and Asia.... When I approach a drive-through ATM machine, I have to get close enough to reach the ATM, and the side mirror comes within a couple inches of touching. It would be much easier if I didn't have to be quite so careful.

As for the seat- and steering-wheel heaters -- I find them to be warm enough even for the coldest mornings. Of course, I live in South Florida, so the coldest winter mornings here are about 40 degrees.
