2019 ES350 thinking about an RC instead
Hello all,
I just bought a 2019 ES350 and not sure I will keep it. The car IS a dream to drive, but I just can't get my head to like its looks. It still looks weird to me. I also DON"T like the set up of all the electronics.
That said, I DO like the way the 2014-2017 or so RC's look.
Has anyone made the leap from an ES to an RS and if so, would you be willing to share your experience.
PS=I really don't need back seats or cargo space, as we also have a SUV for that duty.
PPS-I am an old bugger and this could be my last car! I want to have a bit of fun and style as I pass on.

I'm an old bugger who drove an RC for 9 years, and just traded it in for an ES350 UL, and couldn't be happier.
The ES is much easier to get into, because the doors are smaller, of course and it's a little higher off the ground; the ES UL has more safety and luxury features, is quieter on the highway and has more comfortable seats with several extra adjustments. I don't need a back seat either, but a four door car has its advantages.
I received a lot of compliments and inquiries about the RC (and its "Infrared" color), because it's an unusual looking car. Driving the ES with its mainstream looks is akin to going incognito and staying under the radar. But it's a smooth and comfortable and quiet ride, and I don't miss the RC all that much.
