Lexus polished up some of the details on the ES 330 for 2005. Revised exterior styling includes a new front and rear appearance with updated lighting and trim. Inside, color revisions and new wood availability keep things fresh. New 17-inch wheels are available in either chrome or alloy finish. A memory function now applies to both the driver and front-passenger seats, and heated and ventilated front seats are a new option. A revised steering wheel with auxiliary audio controls debuts, as does voice activation technology for the optional navigation system.

  • Great car - 2005 Lexus ES 330

    This car has everything I wanted. I bought my car fully loaded and I must say I am glad that I did. The variable suspension and stability control are nice options. This car has no transmission problems and rides real nice.

    I looked at the TL, but too loud and harsh a ride. Then the Saab 9-5. Great car, but poor resale and loud road noises. Sold on ES within minutes of test driving. So quiet, highest material quality and comfortable interior! Lots of storage. My transmission is jerky. Im hoping the dealer can fix.

    The ES 330 is the best bang for the buck in luxury sedans of its class. The quiet interior is very soothing. The handling is really nice. The look is very sleek.

    In 2010 i bought my 2005 Lexus es 330 with 87,390 miles on it. I did this on the Lexus name alone, well that was 4 1/2 yrs and 75,000 miles ago i now have 162,000 miles on it. The only repairs I have done is normal maintenance. the car rides like a new car still. Lexus did a fantastic job building this car. Although no car is perfect this is as close to it as your gonna get. I plan on having my Lexus for has long as it lasts, maybe i will be writing another review when i get to 300,000 miles see you then!

    Last car was 2002 Acura 3.2 TL, very good car however the transmission had to be replaced under warranty at 24,000 miles. Got nervous and bought new 2005 Lexus. Very nice car, more prestige than Acura TL, also larger than Acura TL. Colour is alabaster with black interior,very sharp. Also got optional Package "A" for $4000.00 CDN more. Got 29 MPG on first tank of gas, I think is good. No regrets so far in purchase.

    Maybe the best car I have ever owned. Like the navigation system and quiet ride. Out of the 30 some cars I have owned this is the first time I have really had to study the drivers manual to figure out how to work everything. To someone who is not computer experienced I would imagine the navigation system would be a bit of a challange. MPG has ranged from 15 in town to high 20s on the road. Doesnt have sports car performance but has plenty of "go" for an old guy like me. However, even my grandson liked it.

  • Lexus live the dream - 2005 Lexus ES 330

    Today is 7/10/05, although Ive only been a Lexus owner for less than 2 months Im having the time of my life driving it. Sometimes its worth cutting down on lunch expenses to ride in luxury. This car give you all you need in power & relaxation, and most important features are all standard except for navigation. Which for me its not needed.

  • One Fantastic Car - 2005 Lexus ES 330
    By -

    The ES 330 rides like a dream. And dont be fooled, the get-up and go is there whenever called upon. The exterior design is classic, and the interior is simply georgous. Mileage is fair, and it runs on regular fuel - no small consideration these days.
