My 2007 ES350 has developed rust on the hood and the trunk. When I researched this topic on-line, I discovered many other unhappy owners of the ES350. Lexus claims that the new environmental paint with no lead is not as durable as the old paint, however, other cars don't seem to rust after 2 years like with the ES350.Lexus Canada has agreed to re-paint the trunk but not the hood.
