Alan, I believe quatman67 was referring to how the morning sun is reflecting off the car in the picture and how good it looks, not a newspaper.

Yes, I was just referring to the reflection of the morning sun on my ES350. Thanks to MD350 for clearing that up. Sorry I didn't post sooner myself but I'm glad we're all on the same page now.

Smokey Granite Mica/ Black Interior
Premium Package
Heated/Cooled Seats
HID lights with AFS
Wood / Leather option
Bluetooth
Preferred Accessory Pack
Sirius Radio
All weather mats
Love the car, hate the transmission. Very bad shifting. Pohanka Lexus of Chantilly couldn't fix the car - they tried. They said tranny was recalled, ordered a new one and I waited 6 days. They finally realised that the one they ordered was the same as the one in my car. They then said the tranny was fine. I gave up on them. I am trying to get them to buy the car back.
I traded in an es300 2000 and it was the best car I ever owned. I should have just gotten the exhaust replaced on that and kept driving it.

Hey everybody;
I just bought an 08 ES350,
and after driving for a month I must say that I have never
been more satisfied with owning a mid luxury car.
I drove a MB equivalency before and didn't get the same
satisfaction as this car.

2008 Es-350
Happy New Year
I got the ES-350 - 08 Premium Package 2 weeks ago. This is by far the finest car I have ever driven. I own a 07-GX-470 and could no longer get my mom in it without straining my back. I care take for my mom and she can no longer climb the wooden stairs I made to get in/out of the GX. I started out looking at the 08-Accord, Camry Hybrid, Avalon and Buick Lucerne. I test drove them all, and was going to get the Hybrid. I wanted the accord, but, they would not deal at the time. I had dropped off my GX for 20K service and starting checking out the show room. The ES-350 got my eye and the rest is history. When you compare the ES-350 to the others, it's by far a great car period. My mom gets in/out of the ES with no problems at all and she just loves the ride.
Thanks & Happy New Year
