Guess each car has to be dealt with individually.
My ES has the same suspension as the ES in the original post making the clunk noise. I wasn't referring to nor discussing the IS.

wijacket: when in doubt, go back to the dealer and get behind the wheel of a loaner ES330 or one on the lot and bring the service manager with you. Show him the noise in your car, then go drive another ES330 and see if it does the same thing. If it does then made it is inherent in the design. If it doesn't, yours needs a closer look.
