What difference does it make by sharing the same platform as the Camry?? And don't say "well it's FWD" because that has no bearing either.

Thats what he told me. I dont know how much of that is true and coaxed up

This we know:
The lower price of the ES is made possible by sharing a platform with the Camry. Change the platform, and you will loose the price advantage.
L-finesse isn't exclusive to RWD sedans. It's simply a design. Just like the GS, IS, & LS, the L-finesse ES will be similar, but have it's own identity.
