Heck--the low-profile factory rear spoiler would technically be considered more of a sport-oriented accessory item rather than a luxury-based accessory item, yet it can be had on the ES...neverminding the fact that it probably serves no practical functional purpose. IOW--one could argue that the rear spoiler serves no functional purpose being on an ES, yet it is available as a factory option.
