It looks like you're SOL. I tried getting a diecast model of my previous car, '03 ES300, and also my present car, '07 ES350. I scoured the internet and sad to say..so far nobody makes ES diecast models. Good luck

Off topic, but how did your Garmin portable perform on your recent trip? I'm considering getting one, just not sure of which model.

Weren't you planning to rent a Camry too? How did it compare to the ES?

I saw your pre-trip post in another thread. Thanks.

You just caught me in time......I'm getting ready to drive from Scottsdale, AZ to Cathedral City, CA. I bought the Garmin Nuvi 350 and so far it works flawlessly. I'm loving it so far.
Easy to program, and it announces both turns, and street, highway, roads, etc. The built in NAV system in my ES350 only announces turns!
The only thing that my Garmin lacks is Bluetooth capability, which I didn't need, but if you want it I suggest getting the Garmin Nuvi 360.
All in all, I recommend these units highly. I'll let you know more when I get back home. I rented a Camry from Hertz at the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport and will return it to Hertz in Santa Monica, CA. The Camry is similar to the ES in ride quality and handling, but not nearly as refined. This rental came with a 4 cylinder engine which is sufficient, but no where as powerful as the ES350's.
It's a nice car, but it isn't a Lexus.
