You Must Drive This Car

2013 Lexus ES 350 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
I spent several months researching vehicles before finally making a purchase.
I was focused on a mid to large sedan that would be very comfortable for my long commutes, that would get at least 25 MPG, FWD or AWD, and that would LAST for at least 200K miles.
The final list was the 2013 Audi A4, 2013 Hyundai Azera, 2013 BMW 328xi, and the Infinity G37x.
After driving and pricing, the … G37x and BMW were eliminated.
They were simply under-equipped compared to the others at the same price point.
The BMW especially was bare bones unless you dropped another 10K.
The Audi was eliminated for reliability (big issues with burning oil).
After driving the ES350 I was in love.
Not squishy at all.

2013 Lexus ES 350 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
First experience with Lexus. Traded up from Toyota Avalon 2008. What a beautiful surprise.
If you want the ultimate luxury highway cruiser, this is it. Looked at Mercedes, Audi even Hyundai.
for around 40 grand, nothing comes close.
Love it, One problem, my wife only lets me drive it when it needs gas

I have previously owned three Lexus RX350s over the last 10 years. I traded a 2015 vehicle in on my 2013 Lexus ES350 and couldn't be happier. The Blind Sight Monitor is fabulous but not really needed because of the all around visibility from the driver's seat. The ride and overall convenience of the instrument panel shows it has been well designed. I have always said, "once you have … owned and driven a Lexus, you will always drive one". My brother who has owned a BMW and an Audi just purchased a new 2016 Lexus ES350 after having done considerable considerable research. He is as totally satisfied as I am.
Love this baby

Nebula Gray Pearl.
Love this car.
Just completed a 1400 miles round trip and it was very enjoyable all the way.
31 mpg around 70 mph.
Second Lexus for me.
slight improvement over the 08. Did cut some corners but not a deal breaker.
Overall a great car.
