2015 Lexus ES350. Just doing the interior today. It’s SPOTLESS. Probably because the car has less than 3,500 miles. As much as I dislike this car, it is extremely comfortable and it can keep up with traffic pretty well!

The only problem I have with the ES is that even though I think it looks good, there is just better options from Lexus that make it kind of pointless.

I think the ES fits nicely for someone who wants a real luxury car - no sporty pretenses or firm suspension, just a reliable comfortable driving car.

Almost put my grandmother in a hybrid one of these. For an appliance, it’s really really nice. I totally get why they sell.

A lot of people should just spring for the LS if thats what they’re look for imo. The ES is the one car in the Lexus lineup I’ve always kind of been like meh about.

oh man the ES would be dream car right now. Have something a little more sporty for the weekend, but this would be prime DD. Still, it gets up and goes quite nice and it ain’t no old truck around the few bends here.

The interior is a whole lot better in this gen.

Some Avalons look better than some trims of ES.

Lexus needs something for people that really like the Camry, but want a nicer version. It outsells the GS line by three times, and outsells the IS line by almost 50%. It’s a bread and butter car for Lexus, like the E-Class for Mercedes and 3 Series for BMW.

Yep yep. This one belongs to a very old lady. It’s a great car for her and she loves it. I can understand why.

Technically... The Rx is Lexus’ bread and butter... But yeah I understand that. The Camrys are really nice though these days though.

When was the last time you were in a Camry? I had the displeasure of driving one down to Georgia from Baltimore and it was turrible. No balls, crap interior, loud on the highway. I would look at a used ES before a new Camry.

My mom has one. I’m personally not a fan but mostly because I’m used to my '98 LS400. Rwd is my best friend.

Also we have an ES330 same generation as the Camry. I can understand the needing something above a Camry now that I think about it.

Shit, I totally forgot to email you I apologize! It varies by the size of the vehicle. This is $175. I think a van is around $250 but I’m not entirely sure, maybe less.

If you want to shoot me an email, it’s eganward@gmail.com

Meets the same requirements as the Camry, but the ES does it in a nicer fashion. Plus it’s quieter.

very true. Although the Camry is not too bad on road noise, especially when you compare it to Honda’s. My girlfriend had a fairly loaded ‘14 CR-V but the bluetooth was useless because I could never understand her over the road noise.
