What quirks/annoyances do you have with the 7ES?

For the curious, the next-gen Camry's design is discussed in detail in Carmaker1's very informative thread over in Car Chat.

The Gen 8 ES's styling is completely public in every detail except the head and taillights, and his posts there show that Lexus's own renderings exposed it two years ago. There is no need to look at a camo-covered Camry and speculate on how the ES will look. See post #15.

The photos I posted are of an actual car. They're not a poor rendering done in crayons with fake headlights.
I prefer physical in the flesh references when trying to determine a real life look.

Showing real life pic gives you real life proportions, angles, size etc. Not some gray cartoon.

I have had my 2021 ES350 (previous car was Infiniti M35) for about 6 weeks and love it but these are my issues:
1. Driver door doesn’t seem to close solidly. Kind of shakes as it closes.
2. No side by side cup holders
3. No sunglasses holder
4. When passing a heavy freeway interchange. Nav screen engages showing all exits.
5. Range doesn’t continuously adjust based on driving conditions.
I’m still learning the car. I just saw that the side mirrors can be set to auto retract

All your points are right on except for #4. There’s a way to change that and the tech guy at the dealership reconfigured it for me

• “Automatic Freeway Exit List”

P.P.S. Northside Lexus's Melissa O'Connell has some pretty helpful "Deep Dive Tutorial" videos on recent Lexus vehicle models including one on the 2021 Lexus ES. Although the videos are pretty long, she has included in the (show more) description a time marked detailed, extensive list of individual feature section tutorial discussion so you can quickly jump to specific feature you interested in. Starting at the 1:17:02 time mark of her "2021 ES Full Tutorial - Deep Dive" video, she shows explicitly how to turn of the freeway exit list you're having an issue with:

Absolutely disliked the seatbelt warning sound. Thankfully this forum and techstream came to help.
What more I would have liked to change is the requirement to keep the hand on the steering firmly while driving on cruize and lane center is active. I drive to work daily and the road is very well built.

The hollow door wobble is a common and valid complaint. There are a few threads here for a great fix, which is to line the inside of the door with sound deadening material like Kilmat or something similar. It's an extremely simple DIY and pretty inexpensive. The door wobble, more than anything else, was driving me crazy, and I'm 100% satisfied with the result from adding Kilmat.
