My loan will stay the same and just have the VINs switch at LF. I tend to think they have not got the problem solved and will be back at the dealership at about

Wow good choice of color. I’m in the same boat you are waiting for my replacement Es350 UL to arrive. I asked for a 01/07 so probably it’s on the boat at this time somewhere in the pacific ocean. I wanted the Ruby also but those are special order UL’s only, the factory doesn’t make Ruby UL’s off the line anymore and no more black interior they only come in the cashmere now. So the color choice I’m looking for is my original SGM/Bk or Obsidian/Bk don’t know about TP/Bk. I’m glad to hear new plates I didn’t want any connection to the first car. Good luck to you.

picked up my rrg es350 replacement yesterday. this one does not have the wind noise my other one did. cashmere interior, tented windows, pinstriping and my e-sport wheels off my old car. really looks good! told them that if the tranny flared again i would be in abitration for my cash back. overall, a good experience with lexus, doubt if any other car maker would have done what they did.
