ES350 is up on Lexus.com

Just curious. What option packages are people who have placed orders choosing? I wanted the Premium Plus package w/navigation. I also wanted the ML audio but it is not available unless you go up to the Ultra Luxury package or you special order.
Is the ML audio really worth a $1400 difference over the premium audio? How about the seats? I see the leather option is different. Do people think the UL package is worth it? I do not need the car til September so I'm torn between waiting til then and picking a car off the lot and hopefully getting better pricing or placing a custom order now which will take 4-5 months to come in so the timing should be right. Decisions, decisions.

This is a much better site. I finished watching the vids on the 'standalone' broadband site, plus the regular site. All nicely done. I like how this time, the ES 350 is being marketed as not just a luxury car, but a 'sensory experience' which really elevates this Executive Sedan to not just benchmark, but standout status.
I can see now where Lexus was going with the cushion extender, dual-swivel headlights, panoramic roof, lighted cupholders, and other special features...truly elevating the ES.
Did anyone notice the airbags have Lexus logos on them?

I really like this car, but does anyone else miss DVD for the passengers?
I will be in the car by myself 80-90% of the time, but the rest of the time I will have kids in the back. Am I the only one missing this?

They opted not to get the ML because (1) they're not audiophiles, (2) the don't need to watch DVDs in the car, and (3) it was cheaper. You can get them seperately, but it depends on your location/region. You can separate them with a special order.
And is the ML system worth the extra $1400: definately, but you have to understand what you are buying. It's not only the DVD player, but also much better sound quality. Depending on the type of music you listen to, the ML will enhance the quality and nuances of the music. It's best to check another Lexus with it and compare it to one without. If you can tell a difference, it's worth it.

went to toyota to get the camry serviced, looked at the camry option book, and it has rear seat DVD system as an option, and that was for the generation 5 camry not the generation 6
