Yes, I've certainly had this experience too. I'm not convinced that
the difference was so much in color temperature, or anything that
would be pronouncedly influenced by WB, but as you say, it is
definitely worth some testing. The only EF or EF mount lenses I have
right now seem to be pretty similar in color rendition, but I'll test
them nonetheless. That's one of the things I love about photography
- you can find out for yourself!

When I upgraded from the low end 75-300 consumer zoom to the 100-400
IS L the difference in colors simply stunned me. It was my first L,
and though I had read about the probelms of cheap lenses I thought my
pictures looked ok. I had to see it to really understand it.
You can probably devise a test to compare the color performance of
your lenses.
