View Full Version : Shame we aren't getting this in Australia...

New 2007 Lexus ES350 - http://www.globalautoindex.com/news.plt?no=1365
3.5L V6 with 200 kW, 6-speed automatic, panoramic sunroof, dual knee bags...
All for about US$33,000 - $45,000 Australian!
It's a shame Lexus decided to discontinue the ES here in Australia. I guess
they wanted an all rear-wheel drive lineup. Or maybe they wanted to kill
off all ties with 'standard' Toyota models, the ES being based on the Camry?

Yeah IS350 is more of a direct competitor for midrange 3-series and C-Class
IMO.
