I've been a member for awhile now just lurking around and decided to post. I bought this new in 2008 for my wife and we both love the car. Had a ES330 prior to the 350. The ride is smooth, the sounds are great and most of all the performance. No mods other than the window tint, a few pics below.

2007 ES350 Premium package (Cdn) Moonshell Mica / tan leather interior. Auto wipers, swivel HID lights, heated/cooled seats, spoiler, standard sound, moon roof.
Absolutely love it, 6.6 l/100 km hwy, quietest ever, most comfortable seating ever. Previously 2 Ford Taurus', '98 Olds 88 (very good, 9 yrs, 276,000 km), 2006 Lincoln Zephyr (pretty good, 1 yr), then finally this one, and it's a keeper. Nothing about it I don't like.
Second car is a 1967 E-Type Jaguar, black/red.

mander911 @#426 -- if you have a "rolling code" door opener in the garage, there is a "learn" or some such button on it, and you have to press that to get it to talk to your car unit. Hopefully you have the book on the garage unit, which will explain that. Worked for me, anyway. good luck...

New member. 08 CPO ES 350 pebble beach edition.
I believe it has every option except the power sun shade.
Happy with it so far. Bought with 12,000 miles on the clock.

black/black
2008 ES350
color:
black on black (what else would it be?)
options:
rear seat side airbags
bluetooth
full size spare
heated and ventilated front seats
premium package
wood and leather steering wheel
trunk mat
cargo net
all weather mats
images attached:
previous drive:
wife's car. she previously always insisted on driving no-frills, manual transmissions. (her favorite car of all time was her '71 super beetle...) had to practically twist her arm to get her to accept electric windows and locks on her 2007 corolla - which we traded in on this one. and she LOVES it. welcome to the 21st century! finally. not complaining, you understand - her practicality is one of the myriad of character traits that I love about her.
mods:
none yet. if the bolt patter matches, thinking about putting the rims from my sc430 on this one and getting new rims for it.
