im running the time line in my head, I think my bbq is actually about 9 years old now.
its more like the small picture, but the guts look identical to the other pictures, the cooking grates still look brand new, I have never used the rotisserie or the side burner, but the side burner might come in handy for you florida folks when you lose power

This is the one I have, but it's smaller, 3 burner instead of 4 http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_07116661000P
Was about $400 or so if i recall correctly.

Went to Sears, they had some freak of a deal on this 5-burner mamma jamma Kenmore, $350. It's huge though, I'm thinking it was take longer/more gas to get heated up all the way, other downside was that I'd have to order it and wait, and I'm impatient.
Just for comparison, went to Lowe's (meh) and Home Depot. Home Depot had one I liked, a 5-burner Brinkmann that was smaller than the Kenmore, a bit cheaper. I bought this one, took it home, unpackaged it (bought one unassembled so it would fit in the car), and proceeded to break following step 1 of the instructions. When I took it back to exchange it, they said they had a couple other pre-assembled ones, but they all had the same broken part, they said they just mark down the price. **** that.
I'm going to get the Kenmore tonight.

I have this one:
Webber Genesis E310.

Quite nice. I didn't get a side burner though. Usually I just stick an old cast iron pan into the grill service to sautee anything, or an old all stainless pot to do any blanching.
The odd thing is that the gas burner element goes lengthwise across the BBQ. So indirect grilling is a bit more difficult as you can't turn off the left or right side. Only teh front, middle, and back can be turned off.
