  Lexus - December to Remember - 2016 Lexus ES 350
  By Robert - September 21 - 7:50 am

  I was looking to buy a left over 2015 Lexus ES350 but the 2016 is a redesign and looks better in my eye. Dealers will discount 2015s msrp by 10% But when they did the same with the 2016 it was a no brainer. Do get the navigation package - its worth the extra IMO. One last note - if the VIN starts with "J" like jar its made in Japan which my mechanic sez is a good thing.

  Very Nice Car - 2016 Lexus ES 350
  By jon roberts - November 18 - 7:14 pm

  I didnt rate repair frequency or dealership support, because I havent owned the car long enough to decide. I get lots of compliments on its looks and it being a Lexus makes it even more attractive.

  Why I purchased my Lexus ex350 - 2016 Lexus ES 350
  By Stewart D. Charaton - November 6 - 1:20 pm

  This is a great car.not only in luxury but in value. I have shopped Acura Tl, too small for a large size man, same with Camary and Accord. My main concern was with the new safety technology , I was a driving school supervisor years ago. It has all since I went with the most options, Radio is outstanding Mark Levinson is worth the price. I have owned Infinity Q45, G37x, Acura TL, Acura SL, and Toyota Prius, nothing compares with the car or its value Thank you Lexus, and my 1986 Cressida was just a sample of your quality. Just a note I have not been advised or paid for this endorsement Again, what a auto Stewart Charaton

  Best Es yet - 2016 Lexus ES 350
  By Lexus guy - July 11 - 11:39 am

  This is a very comfortable car. I came from a 2014 328i M sport. That car was great too but it was a little small for a family. Plus the reliability scared me every time I got in it. Not this Lexus though. This is a family car! I never worry about if something expensive is going to break or going into limp mode "bmw". I am 35 years old and I always thought I will look like an old man in this car. You know what this car makes you mature and look established. The led headlights are bright and show the road well. The navigation still looks like my 2008 Toyota Camry navigation though. I really wish Toyota would update their nav systems. The seats are la z boy comfortable. I am ready for a road trip. Standard stereo is more than enough. More than enough acceleration and very serine interior. I definitely would buy this over any other brand. Bmw drives nice but costs way too much. Acura is boring, Mercedes is over rated and Audi is in trouble. Buy a Lexus!

  My new Car - 2016 Lexus ES 350
  By Linda - July 10 - 8:50 pm

  The seat sits a little low for me...I am short and have low profile tires. I could use a skinny pillow to raise me up higher for better visability. Very comfortable though.

  Redesigned 2016 Lexus ES 350 Luxury Package - 2016 Lexus ES 350
  By Lee - March 6 - 4:04 am

  This is my 6th Lexus. Previously owned GS, 3 Rx models over the years and currently have an IS 250 that my wife drives. I was in the market for a new car and seriously considered other luxury models including the new C300 Mercedes, BMW 5 series, Cadillac CTS even toyed with the idea of the Porche Macan. I thought after many years of Lexus maybe I wanted a fresh change. After viewing, researching, and pricing the different models with options and overall editor and customer reviews Lexus was still #1 in reliability and value. I had driven the 2015 ES 350 when my RX was in for service and was impressed with the comfort and handling. When the 2016 came out I truly loved the redesign with the new front end and rear end. I test drove it with the 18" wheels and was very impressed. Quick, smooth, quiet, comfortable, and a truly upscale luxury interior. Before I made my decision I decided to wait and test drive the new 2016 RX when it hit the market. For me the 2016 ES 350 just handled beautifully and I am extremely happy with my purchase. I have the luxury package which includes the new leather seat design with double stitching, 18" wheels, and the one touch power trunk. This is a wonderful luxury car and a great value.

  Important read if shopping or analyzing reviews... - 2016 Lexus ES 350
  By Brandon - August 3 - 4:43 am

  I have a 2016 ES ultra luxury, and have had a 2008 in the past. The ES is a terrific car for real world use, it will out-handle what most will ever throw at it. Its not a car for a track..but neither really is a C class or 3 or 5 series BMW that Ive owned, and they were in no way as serene nor exciting (except when the warranty runs out, or you deal with condescending service departments). The Lexus ES is as luxurious and reliable as you can find anywhere close to its price range, has a unique feel of quality and thoughtfulness that cant be checked off on a checklist when shopping, you have to own it to notice it. Is it sporty? No. Theres not much luxurious about feeling the road unless youre on a track or rare weekend journey, and for that, you can get a real sports car. If you want a sportier edge in a sedan, the GS is very nice and still solid. When shopping for the ES, know that with it being quiet, its very noticeable which wheels and tires you get. They come with either Michelin or Bridgestone from factory, the particular Michelin they use is rated as top 3 by tirerack.com, the Bridgstone dead last. You can tell when you drive it, and from some reviews who say its not the car they expected, they always photo Bridgestones on larger rims...which you also may want to avoid. The 17" wheels for 2016 look great, but if you get ultra luxury, you have to swap out the 18". I know..an inch less, but test drive for yourself, the 17", and on a Michelin (Not Bridgestone) tire is what youd like. in 2016 they also updated suspension and added more sound deadening. Its noticeable if you drive it back to back with a prior year. Its 80% of the top of the line Lexus LS, for almost half the price. Its a hard model to ignore, unless youre trying to impress people who insist that luxury must be sporty and rough edged.
