Wow! I saw my first 2013 ES (silver) this morning at my gym in the San Francisco East Bay. I thought they weren't going onto sale until August. Anyway, it was very pretty. The aggressive front looked great, the rear end not so much- too "busy." The Motor Trend road test in the current issue liked the looks more than the performance...oh well! I'd trade my 2002 ES for one, that's for sure! -Richard W.

 

They're not out yet, but there are some making the rounds to dealers for training, etc.

 

I've seen two on roads in northern California. Like this one:

 

^^^^Actually that's the new GS350.

Oops, you're right. I feel like a knuclehead!

 

I saw the 2013 ES pulling into the gym this morning, and so I went over and talked to the owner. He said he got this through a friend, who is in turn a close friend of the dealership's owner. It was the only 2013 ES on the dealership's property. The dealership is in the Valley- quite a few miles from the Bay Area.
