Default Es

Kept an ES over night while recalls completed on wife's IS 250. The ES is an excellent, quiet smooth. I was so glad to get back into the IS. Would not trade an IS for any other Lexus.

In which case id suck it up and buy a GS. There is nothing that will get me to buy an ES. Its simlpy an over glorified Camry.

Id buy an Avalon or aurion before an ES

Totally agree. It is a glorified Camry. Not to mention RWD>FWD!
