I know the feeling, join the club. I have had GM all my life (couple of Fords, but we are trying to forget them....). I wanted a sedan, RWD, V8, or AWD V8. And when it came to looking at GM, all I find are FWD. I hate FWD. I want to be able to drive a car I enjoy. I was leaning towards an Audi A8/A8L/S8 or a Mercedes E-Class. But the Mercs rust and overall the W210's that were in the budget really aren't that good, and the A8's have transmission issues (D2 body) that I don't wanna deal with, as well as nightmare costs on fixing things.

So weeding thru cars, I ended up with someone telling me all Lexus save the ES are RWD. I had to look. I was surprised. And it is a darn nice car other than the Camry dome lights and some other gripes that I think Lexus should be slapped for.
