Buying a used 5th Gen ES 350, your thoughts?
We are close to buying a gently used 5th Gen ES350. We own a 2003 GX470. I am considering a 2010 to 2012, since I want the cooling seats and backup camera along with the slight restyle. Has anyone seen any reliability differences? Any glitches between model years? We would appreciate any thoughts!

AFAIK 2010+ are glitch free so go for it.

I agree. The post refresh 2010-2012's are very solid. Plus some nice tweaks and improvements were made with the refresh.

Also if it has the nav screen, does that assure a backup camera?

backup cam on es350 is not really a big benefit. if it was an SUV - sure, on es rear visibility is pretty good anyway.

Health is more important. Take care of that stiff neck first!
