Default Saw the new ES350 in person...

I am in houston for the next week or so on business. I stopped by a local dealer to look around and guess what they had... an 07 ES350 blue onyx with light gray - ash interior....fully loaded with panorama roof..

IT WAS



GORGEOUS!



I was so amazed the car looks nothing like the pictures...even the interior with that drasted picture of the center console looking carved in oval shaped did not look like that. In person - in flesh it looks perfect. I was astounded how it looked. Simply - BEAUTIFUL. I couldnt believe how good it looked in flesh. Even the gentleman showing me the car said he felt the same way i did when he saw pictures.

The car was just a ride and drive car from a lexus rep from atlanta and he brought it in this morning ..it will be going to another local dealer on tuesday so i may stop by there and see it again. I didnt have my camera or i would have taken pictures. Sorry guys


In flesh its just beautiful. The interior looks amazing and is nothign liek the pictures..even the shifter looks so big in pictures but in reality its perfect and fits just fine with the interior landscape.

They say pictures are worth a thousand words.....but the picture of this car is nothing liek it really is in flesh.

Just wanted to share this great moment with you guys

I'm glad to hear that the car looks so good in person. I can't wait to see it. I live in Houston and would have gone to whichever dealership to see it if I had known it was here. I know that there is a preview event here next week so they may be getting ready for that. I'll be out of town next week so I'll miss the preview but the dealership told me that they would have cars the following Monday to test drive. Maybe this is one of those cars. If you happen to see it on Tuesday, please post some pics.
