Difference of ES300 and Camry v6

Here's my humble opinion since I have had both.

The ES300 (which I now have) has a better turning radius than my Camry. It drives, for me, an lot smoother on the highway. It has a lot more amenities like heated front seats, ABS, bunch of other stuff. I have had 4 Camry's before this ES and really like them but the ES is just a step above the Camry.

New Camry can have heated seats, ABS is standard here in Canada with the V6. The V6 VVTi engine is now on the Camry too, at least here in Canada. Used to be that the VVTi heads were reserved for the ES300, that changed here in mid

2002. I'd say extra insulation, different suspension tuning, trim differences, and extra dealer care (and profit for both the dealer and Toy) are the biggest difference to the XLE They certainly do use the same body shell, and I would expect one to last just as long as the other. Are the extra comforts, insulation, dealer care worth the extra $$ to you?

So that means, other than the extra insulation, the engine are pretty much the same as well as the performance.. Then I should ask myself whether the $10K price difference worths the supsension, service and trimming.

Oh. I was thinking at 150,000 miles, my Camry would be scrapped. Nice to see that my car would last well beyond that.

Thanks!

differences,

I'm now at 276,000 miles on my 92 V-6 and aiming for 300,000
