That is a beautiful color. Congrats!

So is that the body side molding the dealership wants like $300 for? For $5 worth of plastic and paint??

Yeah, $5 worth of plastic. Johnson Lexus wanted $250 installed. I got them to throw it in for free.

The color matches perfectly and I like the look, so I'm happy with it.

Cool ES350 Roll Call

Picked the following up June 22nd...

Crystal White / Cashmere Interior
-Intuative Parking Assist
-Navigation / Mark Levinson Premium Audio Pkg.
-Luxury Package
-Preferred Accessory pkg.

This car has everything but the radar controlled cruise control...And we love it! ($10K in options)
We traded our 03 BMW 530i. It was definately a "spartan" ride compared to the ES350.

Tungsten Pearl

I love the ventilated seats here in Texas as did the client I showed houses to yesterday.
I sold my 10 year-old Avalon to a friend and he is thrilled with it - still looked and ran great with 94K miles.

My wife "refused to exit" also!

Default Another Maryland ES350

I picked up my ES 350 (White/Beige) on Friday night for $35,000 (MSRP $38,269) + TTL with the following options:

Premium Package (PM)
Heated and Ventilated Seats (HH)
Blue Tooth (DC)
HID Headlamps (HL)
Wood and Leather Steering Wheel (WU)
Preferred Accessory Package (Z1)
Intuitive Park Assist (PA)
Rear Side Impact Airbag (BE)
All Weather Floor Mats (WF)

I am excited to call myself a Lexus owner. After many years as a very satisfied Honda owner, nothing compares to the quality of my new ES350.

Congratulations!!! That is exciting and it sounds like you got a great deal. My sticker price was 40,334 and I paid 39,500. But that was the first week the car came out so I was happy at the time. Glad to see people are getting better deals now.

Default Waasup Y'all

Hello everyone, Just picked up an ES 350 2 weeks ago! you might remember me from long ago when I was raving over the IS 300... well now I've finally got a lexus, and it's the ES 350!

I love this car. Smokey Granite, black interior, mark levinson/panoramic sunroof/upgraded wheels and I picked it up for $300 over invoice... A great deal on a great car!

I'm just starting to play with it, and figure out all the little undocumented features I've already figured out how to override the navigation lock while driving, and I'm sure the rest will come soon

No pics yet, but I'll post some up soon!

Default In the driveway....

Tungsten Pearl
Gray Interior
Ultra Package
Park Assist
$2,800 below MSRP, which I thought was okay given that the car was specially ordered for the ultra package (none on the lot), plus $300 for tint.
