I like my ES300h a lot, but after owning 20+ vehicles the magic was gone after a few weeks. For what it is and the price paid, Lexus did a terrific job putting all the pieces together.

Recently just passed the 1yr mark on my car. Still has the new Lexus leather smell, and I'm still very happy with the decision to go with ES. It's a sharp and elegant looking vehicle without looking pretentious or over exaggerated with plenty of creature comforts. (not to mention with room to spare.)
Thanks for sharing your experience SJSass, make sure to take pictures and sign in on the roll call thread that is stickied at the top of this forum if you haven't already.
Now if I can only get that showroom quality wax job on it, I'll be happy for the rest of the season.

I think that the reason why the excitement fades more quickly now than it did years ago may have something to do with how much easier it is for me to be able acquire a new car now than it was when I was younger. Years ago, when I had to save up to buy a car, there was lots of anticipation, and, when I was eventually able to buy the car, the new car excitement lasted for a long time. Now, as soon as I the thought of getting a new car crosses my mind, I do some quick research. Then I do a bit of quick negotiating and write out a check. I think that, when it is very easy to acquire a new car, my appreciation of it isn't as great as it was when I had to work harder and wait longer to get it.

less and Fly4u, it was good to read your posts. I thought it was just me. I too get excited with a new car, and really enjoy them, but have found that I get the itch sooner than in the past. I traded in a 2010 ES350 with 28k miles on a new Audi 1 year ago but already my eye is wandering. Nothing serious yet though.
SJSass congrats on the new Lexus.

Lease for 36 - 39 months rather than purchase for business purposes, and I have loved every car til the day I turn it in. Perhaps I am easier to satisfy, and I have been driving for over 50 years.
