^^^ Actually, I think the current ES looks very much like the current Camry, moreso now than ever. If you see the 2 side by side, it's uncanny.
I agree with you but in reverse. It's now the current Camry that looks like the current ES. The camry has been redesigned with the very obvious "L-Finesse" styling ques of the new generation ES350. So, it's no longer the ES looking Camry-ish, it's the Camry looking Lex-ish.....but either way, if it weren't for a few minor differences on the exterior (like the front grille) the two would be pretty much identical.
I think the ES looks fabulous, not like a Camry at all. They will always be similar in size but IMO, they don't look alike as much.
God forbid you park your GS next to any of Nissan's sedans, you're screwed!
I agree. On Sunday we parked behind a GS350 at a model home we were looking at. The GS is very nice, but the styling is similar to the current gen Maxima/Altima, especially from the rear.

Hmmm, interesting perspective. I agree that the current Camry is a departure from prior gens, almost as if they stole a page or 2 from L-finesse. I do know that in the past, the ES was based off a JDM version (Vista/Windom) that was not rebadged and sold in N. America, but is now based off the N. American Camry (since Toyota dc'd the Windom last year). I always viewed the ES as the red haired stepchild of Lexus, since all the other cars are rwd (not including suvs or hybrids) . . .

So what is more insulting: Owning a $50,000 Maxima with a Lexus badge (the resemblance is an eye opener) or a well dressed Honda Accord in Acura RL clothing?
