I'd suggest you look at the restyled Toyota Avalon Limited, which
appears to have everything the new ES350 will have, and maybe more.
It
might be a few thousand less, around $35,000 list, and I personally
think it looks better than the bland new Lexus ES. Larger, too.
Oddly, the Avalon is faster than the new ES accellerating 0-60, based
on
published test statistics. The stats are not from the same source,
but
did show the Avalon to be a half second or more faster, as I recall.

The new 2007 ES is now based on the Avalon and not the Camry as in the
past. Much change in the suspension, some in the engine, and the
transmission is different (If I remember correctly)

The Avalon is also Camry-based, but the ES is closer in size to the
Camry than to the Avalon.

Im in Annapolis MD and use my RX330 (2006) all the time in and around
Baltimore and DC and have seen no problems. I've types in previous
addresses in California and ech time the NAV system has found the
house and provided reasonable directions.
