No, it was just time to trade and I did not see anything that different in the 2010 ISF.

Thanks, I also bought a 2010 ES 350 for my wife. She had an 08 ES 350.

By the way, where is the oil filter on the C?

I certainly hope you did a very short term lease on the new car, because this time next year, it may be "just time" again.

This was a horrible financial decision, but good luck with the new car.

Enjoy the vert!

I guess it depends on where you live. If I lived in California, it'd definitely be worth getting the vert. But other places such as Missouri... not so much.
