I have a 2008 with 160k miles. These cars are BULLETPROOF. Everything is original except the maintenance items such as tires, fluids, belts and brakes. Just make sure to change your transmission fluid, Toyota says it's a "lifetime fluid" meaning the life of however long the transmission would last with that exact fluid.

May I add that my 2007 ES 350 now has 363,000 miles (all in Michigan snow country) and it still runs and sounds like new, and other than after market paint repairs, etc., looks like new inside and out. Never had a vehicle that was so reliable and comfortable over so many miles. All I can say about this car is, WOW.

I drove a 2011 Camry for about 3 years. I now have a 2011 ES. While I can tell the cars are distancely related, they are very different in how they ride and isolate the driver. Even the doors on the ES close with a satisfying *thud* that the Camry doesn't have. There are many reasons the Lexus costs more when new. That's not to say the Camry is bad, it's a great car, the ES just takes that greatness up a few notches.

Lagging transmission, stuck accelerator, etc are well known online and Toyota is well aware of these issues and have issued recalls, service bulletins, and replaced transmissions. Maybe you got lucky or maybe the problems are not as big as it sounds online but it DOES sound like there is a problem with the lagging transmissions, etc.

James Bennett……what is the horsepower and torque?
@dpmusic213 жыл бұрын
I just bought a 2010 a couple of weeks ago. I was actually considering an LS460 to be honest. But something about the LS just never really "connected" with me. I never got that "THIS IS IT" feeling during my car search and test drives. I kinda stumbled upon my 2010 Es350 while looking at a different ES (it was a 2007 ES). Anyway, as soon as the dealer showed me the 2010, I immediately said BINGO, this is it!!! Something about this car resonated with me more than the LS did. Basically everything he said in this video is pretty much spot on. What I love the most about this car besides how smooth and quiet the ride is, is it's simplicity. I like that I have nothing more than I need and nothing less than I need. I don't have to push 55 buttons to access advance menus just to change a setting in the car. Know what I mean?? All told, anybody in the market for one won't regret their purchase (so long as they get a good quality car of course). The more I drive mine, the more I love it. It just grows on you. 😊💯💯👌🏾

Thanks for your opinion on the ES350 as I'm in the first stages of buying this 5th generation. Question please.....I keep reading about a transmission "lag" when coming to a stop (almost), then accelerating again. Does yours do this? I once rented a Camry that did this and I HATED it. I REALLY need to know if this is a common problem with the ES350. Any insight? Thanks
@dpmusic212 жыл бұрын
@@usaman7358 I've never experienced any issues related to a "tranmission lag". Perhaps its something that is more affected but a driver's braking and accelerating style? I tend to drive very easy and break very light in mine. The only thing I've noticed if anything is that the brakes are a wee-bit spongy. However I replaced my pads with some higher end brake pads and don't notice the sponginess as much. Maybe I've gotten used to it. In any case, braking and accelerating power is there for me when I need them. Hope this helps.

@@dpmusic21 Thanks so much. Makes me feel better about this. Obviously I will drive whatever I buy beforehand but with so many complaints about the v-6 toyota transmissions doing this, AND experiencing it myself in a v6 rental Camry, it has me quite concerned. The more I research the ES350, the more confused I get. It gets GREAT reviews all over but then it also gets MANY unhappy with the transmission jerk, hesitation/slip situation. I just can't understand how people can be SOOOOO happy with this car if it has this transmission issue. Thanks again

Just picked up a fully loaded ‘07 in white from an old couple for relatively cheap considering the current market. Gonna’ change the fluids, brakes and throw some snow tires on it when the time comes. Can’t think of a more comfortable daily for $5k. It’s got 199k on it now and I’m fairly confident I’ll keep it till the 300k mark.

If you’re considering this car as a daily - do it. Owned mine for 3+ years (243k miles) and would still have it if the suv that hit me didn’t total it two weeks ago. I’m actively looking for another cheap, higher mileage example to purchase just to keep around as an extra car.
