Made a purchase through the help of a broker. Had Lexus cars before, a GS 300 and an LS400 that were both showing their age. Looked at the ES model and some features that brought some comfort from the older LS model. For an entry level mid sized sedan, it had all the features and perks of a full size. Sleek look, smooth handling and little comforts. It's not fun in the sense of, say a BMW, but the driving works fine, the mileage is an improvement over my previous car and the price was just right.
