Default New Lexus owner saying hello.

Just got a 2006 ES 330 with 14,000 original miles. Typical "little old school teacher" story. Bought it from the same dealer where it came from originally, from the same salesman who sold it originally. I got it because my Toyota Avalon, which I dearly loved, was totaled by a runaway Mercedes back early in January. The sheer size and weight of the Avalon absorbed both the front and rear impacts and probably saved my life. I walked away without a scratch.

Default Es 330

I am indeed enjoying the ES 330. It is smaller than my old Avalon but in a good way. It's a lot easier to back up out of the garage and down my narrow driveway where there is a brick wall on one side and a chain link fence on the other side.

As you know, the ES 330 is smooth, quiet, responsive and comfortable. It's a keeper for sure. Thanks to all for the nice welcoming words. Anyone else interested in wristwatches or old cameras?
