Waze through phone saves thousands $ by not spending for NAV, not to mention expense for updates.
I've been planning to get an ES 300h for some time but was sidetracked by family responsibilities necessitating the purchase of an Outlander PHEV babymobile. I'm hoping to get an ES soon but it will have to be used, probably under 30k CAD. This means if it's going to be a 7th Gen it will have very high mileage. Here is a 2019 with 160k kms for 30k, and here's a 2018 with 82k kms for 32k.
Any thoughts on which would be a better choice? I've heard the 7th Gen is a big improvement and I prefer the exterior but I think I like the interior of the 6th Gen more, especially with the wood (although I've never seen one in person).

I just bought a 2019 ES350 CPO car. Could not be happier. Coming out of a 2012 ES and loved that car too. This one is a step up driving wise. You sit lower in the car and that needs some getting used to. 2019 is quieter and faster than the 2012 and handles better.
Good luck.

Whatever the dollar total, some people feel that way -- including some carmakers. Honda, for one, has ditched onboard nav entirely on some new models and just connects to Google.
