The closest thing I was able to find was a Lexus hood deflector.....no bra of front end mask.

Hi - can you tell me where you found the hood defector. I'd like to see what it looks like.

Thanks

I put about 90 miles on my ES350 each day, mostly highway. I'm getting quite a few paint chips, seems like a lot more than my old ES300. Anyway, does anyone know where I can buy a bra/sports bra for the front of my ES350. Lexus used to sell them but doesn't anymore.

Thanks!

Any creative ways?

Yes, this is annoying. I just gave up on long strings like that, but I will start thinking about it again.

Question for you: Does the pause and wait functions work properly in those strings? I think my BlackBerry is not being sent the right signals to respect those functions from the LEXUS.

The pause function seems to work, and I haven't tried the wait function. It would be nice if you could run the first set of characters under one phone book address with a wait function, then the second set with another phone book address.

Maverick, $500 over invoice is great. Mine was about $1200 over invoice. $41.5K ES350 Ultra Luxury with Mark Levinson (Osidian (black) outside and black leather heated/cooled seats inside). I could have gotten it about $400 less at a dealer but the dealer I bought it from was an Elite dealer. The dealer is about 40 miles from my house but they pickup, leave a loaner, and bring the car back for ALL maintenance (except body work). They also have a mobile express truck that comes to the house if there is something minor. I felt that was worth about $400 more. Hope this helps!

Was that w/navigation? If so you got an excellent deal! Congrats.

Hello to all. I am new here.

I bought my 2008 ES 350 back in October, 2007 (Royal Ruby, UL, Chrome Wheels, XM, Clear Bra). I ordered the body side molding but at the time it was on hold by Lexus. Well, it has now been released my salesman tells me. Now I don't know if I really want the molding now. I like the way the car looks without them. I also notice that some other manufacturers are not including them as standard equipment.

So, getting straight to the point:

How many here have the body side molding? And, if you don't have them, do you want them? In general, I'd like to hear what people think of body side molding on their ES 350.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I've got them on my new ES350 and love them. They don't look bad and they protect the car. There's nothing worse than some jerk putting a bid dent into your new ES!

I have a phone number that, once I insert passwords and pauses, is 30 characters long. The phone book seems to have a 25 character limitation. Does anyone know of a way to get around this limiation? Any creative ways?

Thanks

Does anyone know what the purpose of the navigation "bread crums" (little "o" that get placed on the route you've taken) have. Is there anything or any functionality I'm missing by not knowing how to use these?

Thanks

It is called Voice Recognition Command. Not a good name for it, since it means 'a command by your nav system to say a command. Probably a bad translation from Japanese.

Menu, Setup, go to page two, and turn it off. Then you will merely hear a "chirp", rather than the voice prompt.

Thanks! I found it.

Alright, I know already that I have to wait until after the beep to put in my navigation instruction. I don't need to be told each time. Is there a way I can turn off Ms. Navigation and just have a beep after I push the talk button? It would certainly make entering faster.
