  • Great Car - 2004 Lexus ES 330

    Fantastic Car! After looking at Acura TL, Volvo, Audi I know I made the right choice. Rides like a dream and looks great inside and out.

  • Much more than a Camry! - 2004 Lexus ES 330

    By far the quietest vehicle Ive ever owned. Its a womans car and the wife loves it, yet I enjoy driving it too. The 3.3L engine is very powerful yet silent, and theres no torque steer at all, which was a pleasant surprise.

  • A good choice - 2004 Lexus ES 330

    I use this for my job and drive it a lot. It is very reliable and offers a great deal of comfort

  • Outstanding Quality & Ride - 2004 Lexus ES 330
    By -

    This is my first Lexus and luxury car and I cant be happier than I am. The quality of the car is incredible. The details are dramatic. The leather is soft and the seats are very comfortable. All the vehicle controls are at the drives fingertips and all the features are easy to operate.The sound system is outstanding. I dont have the Mark Levinson system but the "premium" system is quite sufficient for those who appreciate a quality sound system. The car is easy to drive and has an incredible turning ratio. And of course it has all the bells and whistles you would expect to find in a Lexus.

    i have driven this car like a hummer beat the hell out of it but it still drives brand new looks great everything works except my cd player but the sound system over still pounds the only thing i can say is this is a awesome car all around

  • Comfortable reliability - 2004 Lexus ES 330

    Faultlessly as advertised. The automatic feature work very well but can make you feel lazy and spoiled, so I disengage them periodically so that I feel that I am controlling the car.

  • The Best Yet - 2004 Lexus ES 330
    By -

    We were looking for a reliable car, especially since we plan to do some traveling. We decided to look at the Lexus and immediately decided this was the car for us. Its a comfortable car - smooth riding - makes you feel special when youre driving it down the road. I have no complaints about our Lexus...in fact, its the best car Ive ever owned.

  • solid car, but should have done research - 2004 Lexus ES 330
    By -

    The car has been good by all acounts except the transmission. It hesitates, slips into 4th and has a "jerk" to it at low speeds. I have had it in the shop on 3 different occasions and have been told the dealer can do no more. There are several customers with the same problem as I found out when I went to the NHTSA web site. This is a software problem with this car and the RX330, please do more investigating than I did.
