I found 2 - 2018 ES350 models, being sold as "Executive" cars, driven by the sales staff at the Dealership. They are both being sold as new, I would be the first titled owner if I purchase. I would welcome opinions, pros and cons, of the 2018 Vs the 2019. If anyone wants to weigh in which seems to be the better deal. I certainly welcome your opinion! Thank you!

The first vehicle has 1100 miles. The MSRP was $44,773. It is being sold at $34,932, before tax + fees. Options:

• ACCESSORY PACKAGE 2
• ALL-WEATHER FLOOR MATS
• BLIND SPOT MONITOR W/REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
• FRONT & REAR INTUITIVE PARKING ASSIST
• HEATED WOOD & LEATHER TRIMMED STEERING WHEEL

• PREMIER PACKAGE
• PREMIER PACKAGE DISCOUNT
• REAR SPOILER

The 2nd vehicle has 4,400 miles. The MSRP was $44,374. It is being sold at $33,932 + tax + fees. Options:

• ACCESSORY PACKAGE 2

For a new 2019 ES350 with FWD, MSRP $44,819, the best price I could get so far was 41,100 + tax + fees. Options:

I would take the 2019 model if $6K doesn't make a dent in your wallet, although Nav is not included, which I can live without (Google Map are much better). the '19 has more HP and love the baby LS500 look with 50% off.

My 2nd choice will be the 1,100-mile one.

I sort of regret getting my '17 model in Sept.2017, when the '19 model was just a year away. Anyway, too late and costly to sell my '17 now.

That's a tough decision. The 2019 is an improvement over the 2018 but the 2019 you listed doesn't have navigation which would be a deal breaker for me. If it was me deciding between those 3 I'd have to go with the first 2018 with fewer miles just because of the navigation.

The 2019 has a larger wheelbase (roomier) is much quicker, quieter, and better suspension/performance.....test drive both under same conditions...they are kind of, but not the same car.
