Smile New To The Forums! (White ES350 pictures)

Hey Everyone, I'm new to the forums.
(Actually this is my dads account. I drive an Acura CL and am on their message board site. My dad is new to this whole "message board" thing, so I figured I'd get on here, say hello, and help him with posting some pictures)

This is my family's new 07' ES 350. We were lucky enough to be added to a pre-order list, so when the ES's arrived last week at the dealer; ours was ready and waiting for us.
I believe it's the "Plus Package," and in a few weeks, the chrome wheels will arrive, and the window tint will be getting done also.

I know some of you were asking questions about the "glass roof" and other features, so I figured I'd take a bunch of pictures, which will hopefully answer some of your questions.

Thanks! -CJ

Welcome to the board!!! Congrats on your new ES.

Those pics are really fantastic, the New ES looks very sharp in white.

And you saved the best pic for last--the panoramic roof. That looks truly stunning. If I were in that car I'd have a hard time not keeping the skylights open all the time

Like the glass roof. Nice touch.

Welcome and congratulations on the new ES 350. I have a 1996 ES 300 with over 254K miles and it runs great. It still has the original engine and transmission and I change my own oil, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs, O2 sensors, brake pads and battery. You will enjoy many miles with your new car. Happy driving...

Thanks! Actually my dad had an older BMW 740il, which he traded in when we got this ES. Now my dad drives our 96' LS400 and my mom gets the new ES.

One thing many people don't realise though, is the rear moon-roof dosn't open. Only the front glass opens up.

As far as the wheels go, they are the new chrome wheels for the ES. (Im not exactly sure what they look like, but the Lexus dealer said they will hopefully have them in a few weeks. :wish:

My dad and I both agree that tinted windows will def. make the car look better, (esp. with the smoked glass roof) but we havn't decided on a tint % yet. Has anyone tinted the windows on their new ES? If so, what % did you get, and does anyone have any pictures of the new ES with tinted windows?
Thanks! -CJ

That white color with the contrasting black roof is very stunning.

It looks like your Dad bought the Ulta Luxury package - top of the line.

I agree. I love this car in white. Looks fantastic. Did you get the ML radio too?
I got my ES350 in the Royal Ruby - premium plus package w/navigation. It also has the cashmere interior. I'm getting a lot of compliments on that color too.

Great pictures. Liked the Nav picture with the clover leaf and seeing the highway in the background of others. Thanks for posting and congrats!
