I’m wondering just how many vendors from different parts of the world supply parts to the factory to make these cars. I’ve had two cars now and got to thinking both car are not the same. You take your chances with noisy Engines, Flaring Transmissions, leather quality, wood grain, paint, even the 10 spoke wheels don’t have the same finish. I think the only way to know if you have a good one would to test the car for a week before buying. I know that would never happen. So it’s up to chance if it all works good or your stuck with a car with short comings.

My Es 350 has a build date of 7/06 and was built in plant 2. I have a loud clacking engine, some trans flair, internal and external wind/rattle.
Where were the engines and transmissions made brfore assembly?
