  Lexus ES 330 is a Winner - 2004 Lexus ES 330
  By Alan Shapiro - September 5 - 12:46 pm

  We purchased this car used. It gets an average 29 MPG (street and highway combined), has plenty of power, interior leg room, great looks and its easy to do oil changes. The trunk mouth is smaller than I would like but so far it hasnt been a problem. Also, the trunk can only be opened from the interior or via a button on the key. There is no key lock on the exterior. On cold days the seat heater is a plus. Theres a multi CD player and a cassette player. This car handles extremely well at any speed and has not been in for any major repair. The drive is very smooth and quiet and feels very sturdy. The biggest surprise has been the gas mileage. I am very impressed with this car.

  ABSOLUTELY SUPERB! - 2004 Lexus ES 330
  By Imac - July 16 - 2:00 am

  My 2004 Lexus ES330 is absolutely SUPERB all around. I loved my old 2000 ES 300, but this 2004 is even better. It is smoother, quieter, more powerful, gets better milage, more luxurious, more beautiful inside & outside and just oozes quality all over. The new ES 330 is the best mid-luxury car on the road.

  My prior daily driver was a Mercedes C320. The Lexus is quieter, bigger, more comfortable, better equipped, and significantly less expensive. Im a convert!

  1st Time Lexus Owner - 2004 Lexus ES 330
  By KingRein - May 29 - 2:00 am

  The comfortable ride, safety features and warranty helped us to choose the ES 330. We looked at the high end Toyota Avalon & found that we were just about on par price wise with the ES 330. So, we looked, we drove, we researched & we bought. The step up which included a more refined automobile & the 4yr/50K basic, 6yr/70K power train was well worth it. I look forward to many enjoyable years behind the wheel of my ES 330.

  Best in Class - 2004 Lexus ES 330
  By AJ S. - May 24 - 2:00 am

  I have owned this vehicle for about 6 months now, and enjoy it more than my 2002 BMW 530i. I have never experienced any problems with this car, and do not expect to. The quality, comfort level, silent drive, and sound system is the best when compared to a BMW, Lincoln, or Volvo. I will never step into a different dealership again. Test one out for yourself.

  Awesome - 2004 Lexus ES 330
  By OnTheRoad - May 18 - 10:00 am

  I had been driving BMWs since the early 80s and decided to see what all the talk was about a LEXUSs reliabiltiy. I drive around the bay Area M-F and needed comfort and a car that would not be in the shop every few months. So far, this car has been a dream to drive: quiet, smooth and comfy beyond belief! I do not miss the performance of the Beemers-- more focused on comfort& luxury- guess I am getting older.... and the Lexus is my reward!

  5th owner and never would have known - 2004 Lexus ES 330
  By skrypko - April 28 - 10:46 am

  Bought the ES330 with 70k miles in November 2015. its been 2 years since I owned it now. February of 2017 I was hit my a Semi and the car did great without going off the road and stopping in time. Insurance did not total it out. and I am glad!! I have not had any issues with the car but 1. the plastic that connects to the coil has cracked and the car was running on 5 cylinders. I went to a local junk yard and got the part for $2.00 and it took me about 10 minutes to do everything. car has now 106,500 miles. ride is super quite. when you need to go around a person it picks up speed fast! need to watch the speedometer as you do not feel the speed. I bought a 2006 MB E350 with 48k miles and the ride was worse then the ES330 quality and maintenances cost. I owned 23 cars in the past 5 years and I am sticking with Lexus. I hope the newer once are as well built as this one.

  330 removes all doubts - 2004 Lexus ES 330
  By tribble - January 27 - 10:00 am

  Was ready to get last years es 300 for its quality, rep, and luxury but a little afraid of its sluggish performance numbers (200 hp). Started to consider the G35 instead. Then I heard about the es 330 and its improved performance (225 hp), so I waited. V. glad I did. Lexus has delivered the goods. Theyve removed what little there was wrong with the 300. Perfect luxury sedan for the entry level market. Feels like youre driving a car worth twice as much. Granted, only had the 330 for two weeks now, but its everything I hoped for. Quiet, smooth, tight. And if you can swing it, get the GPS package. Very fun toy for tech-heads.

  04 Black ES 330 - 2004 Lexus ES 330
  By grm1memphis - January 21 - 2:00 am

  As usual, Toyota/Lexus has done an outstanding with this vehicle. Fit, finish, and overall quality is outstanding. Glad I waited on the 330 for added power at a lower price than the same car last year. I have nothing but good things to say about this vehicle. I expect to be in the Lexus family for a long time.
