As cars go I've always been a Caddy, Chrysler guy- After I drove an '02 ES, I bought one. Everything about it is super. This car does not drive, it "hovers" above the rode. It's nimble, luxurious, solid, packed with amenities and has 95,000 miles!!! Before turning the car over to me, the dealership performed the 90K service package, replaced the timing belt, water pump, and threw on 4 new Michelins (even though they didn't need it). I'm totally won over to Lexus and it will take quite a vehicle to change auto choices again. It's so QUIET!!!
Excellent Ride

This is the smoothest car I've ever driven. The inside styling would make you think your in a $70k car. Bought this car certified from Lexus at 44,000 miles. Now has around 50,000 miles and all have been trouble free. I also have a '98 ES300 that's a great car too. It has 130k miles and still drives like a dream.
What a perfect cat

This is my first Lexus ever. I test drove other competitive cars and found this car is the best. There was nothing to compare. Comfort, design (especially interior) and size. The best part was comfort and reliability. As you know Lexus can run 200,000 miles very easily. It drives like a heaven.
3 Lexus Family

I was so impressed with the ownership experience of my 00 RX 300 that I had to buy another Lexus. The exterior impresses friends and looks like a 70k+ Mercedes or Bimmer. Extremely powerful, reliable, and great gas mileage. Interior leather and wood trim really make the car. VSC, traction control, ABS brakes, and eight airbags really offer peace of mind. I would highly recommend this vehicle to someone who wants efficiency of a family sedan with a Mercedes S class feel. I would not drive anything else but a Lexus. My next car will be a lexus too.
I'm never letting go!

I'm writing this review as the THIRD generation owner of my 2002 silver lexus ES300. I'm currently shopping for an SUV, but I'm NOT letting go of my lexus. She's the best. I thought I'd contribute my experience while I'm searching other forums (currently looking at Jeep Grand Cherokee vs Mercedes GLK 350). As I mentioned, this car has been through three family members, and we bought it used! I STILL get compliments on how stylish, luxurious, and comfortable my car is. As I write we have NEVER had a major issue. The only time I have had it in the shop (besides regular maintenance and replacement of time belt, 200,000 strong!) was when my ignition locked up, because I over-parked and turned the wheel too far.. it was no big deal, but the AAA person in my area wasn't skilled in unlocking, so they just had to take off dash and reset, it's apparently a common problem, but it only happened once and I'm confident that it was my over-park that caused it. I'm keeping my car and won't let go until the wheels fall off! If you're shopping for a comfortable, reliable, yet stylish/flashy car, this is the one. I will always praise my lexus experience! If it weren't for these crazy new body styles I would 100% be upgrading to a newer lexus. I will wait it out a few years for these fads to pass and buy again once they come back to their classic styles.
