My favorite Lexus so far
I love this car. Before this car, I owned a 2004 BMW 330xi, a 2010 GS350 AWD, 2012 RX350 AWD, and I currently own a 2010 GX460. Of all of the cars I have owned, this has been my favorite. I bought it 2 years ago for $14k with 70k miles simply to drive 30 miles, 5 days a week for my commute. It drives smooth, sips fuel, and has all of the comforts of other Lexus vehicles I have owned. This car gives and gives and gives and asks for nothing. I have not had a single issue in 30k miles and 2 years of ownership and the car is almost 10 years old. The sound system is great, the headlights are phenomenal, the heated/ac seats are comfortable, the cabin is whisper quiet, the trunk is huge, and the car is very quick when you need it to be. Every feature still works in this vehicle, and I get so many compliments on it which is ironic because its a 10 year old car that I paid so little for. There is something to be said about a car that does everything so well. If you are considering this vehicle & have any hesitation, just buy it! You will not regret it. I sold this car for a 2020 GS350 F-Sport and to be honest I miss it a lot. Was getting 29mpg in the ES with regular fuel now only getting 21mpg with premium fuel in the GS. Cabin was much quieter in the ES as well.

Great car,but could use a little height
Ive only owned this car for about 8 months. I absolutely love it, and get lots of compliments driving it! I have not had any problems what so over. The gas mileage isnt great, but my previous car was a 4 cylinder toyota corolla, 2 totally different cars, with totally different engines.My only complaint is, the roof feels low, and Im not that tall either. I am about 5'5, but I always bump my head on the roof getting into the car. Lexus describes it as a cocoon type interior,and that is definitely what it feels like, so if you can live with the low roof feeling, everything else is perfect, and this is the perfect car for you!

An excellent buy! Voice functions need improvement
I bought my 2011 ES 350 a month ago at $6k below MSRP. I am happy with this car. It has a very smooth and quiet ride, lots of comfort features and is definitely a good value for the money.

Cars aren't perfect - but this one is Very Close
Bought this in Nov 2011 with 5000 miles. it now has 63000 miles. except for regular maintenance haven't touched it- Had mechanic check brakes and still have 30 thousand on them he said. Also this one is built in Japan so built with loving care - not built by a union person that doesn't care. Best car I ever owned and I am 76 yrs-
