[@realrichiewoods]

I've been doing my research about luxury sedans of all manufacturers and I must say that since I would buy (finance) one instead of lease I would look no further due to the features and reliability. TOYOTA can't be beaten in terms of being reliable

[@MarcG7424]

I can vouch for that I have a 19 year old RX never had any problems

[@unstoppableking2356]

Facts

[@Toyota4Life]

It's a very beautiful sedan. Very sleek looking you cant go wrong buying this car because it's so good at what it does and it will last you.

[@TheItsmegp46]

This car should be good for 200,000-300,000 miles.

[@kimbradley4105]

I love my 2016 lexus so much!

[@ncsvcreations8671]

is it the same ES ?

[@alanhumphrey4198]

My 350 ES made it a "December to Remember"!!! I have this same car only mine is 2017...it's buttery!!!

[@TipOfTheSauce]

Gonna get myself one of these for like 25K now :D

[@monalisa125th]

I got mine for 21k. 35,000 miles. A win win hands down

[@bengal-desi6526]

@@monalisa125th dayumm I can’t even find one $23k at that mileage. Would have to go out of state for something anywhere near that deal.

[@Arod06]

Great review gonna go buy my wife one.! I like it better than the Avalon and the interior is amazing.! Thank you sir

[@matthewyim1736]

Great Review! I really want this for my dream car.

[@tristancarlson4816]

I am very surprised at how nice the interior is, lexus has upped their game.

[@hockeyizlife215]

Since 2013 they have

[@travarisjones3945]

I'll be buying this car sometime around the beginning of 2020

[@sandeepp6300]

Smart.

[@frantzpierre6569]

Smart move!!!

[@AceDRenegade]

I recently started working in the automotive industry and am learning a lot from your videos. Keep up the good work, buddy.

[@philipchang12]

I have a 2015 avalon and im thinking about getting this next because i like big sedans with decent mid size engines... should i get the is 350 or this es 350?

[@romeotango58]

+Philip Chang ES, the IS has a cramped interior and rides like shit!

[@Jia1337]

This is basically a baby LS if you think about it. Its never meant to be sporty and it's sole purpose was to be a quiet and luxurious sedan. I mean, the LS itself has a V8, sure, but not the same V8 they put into their F series.

[@Rapture77]

Isn't the transmission shifter head missir on this vid? It usually comes with leather wrapping and stitching

[@kgisabeast]

Rapture77 they take them off so people don't steal them

[@omgitsme435]

Why did they completely skip over the interior..The exterior needed work, but now the aggressive front doesn't match the outdated interior

[@tsarpeteri8578]

Does anyone know if this car feels like butter

[@norakat]

Tsar Peter I - it depends, it’s all relative. The suspension is not on par w something like a LS but it is still better than most cars. If you get 18” wheels the ride is very firm but small bumps are handled well. Significant bumps can be jarring. Also the torque on this car feels very low. It depends on high rpm to get any speed/acceleration. So if you put it in sport or normal mode, the engine really roars to get it going which does not feel so elegant. In comfort mode the steering can feel loose at higher speeds. In sport mode it tightens up. The seat is fairly firm. I’d like a little more cushioning and better ergonomics (seat does not fit me too well.)

[@alanhumphrey4198]

My 2017 is buttery smooth...😊

[@matthewyim1736]

Cameron, when you review a lexus car, why is the key fob always in a plastic bag?

[@michaelharrity9795]

I want one

[@yiyangcheng]

I think Lexus must of think people steal shift knob

[@MarcG7424]

The dealer removed the shift knob and people do steal them believe it or not

[@L30NHART]

This is a full size, front wheel luxury car. Why do people say it competes with mid size cars? This car competes with the Cadillac XTS, Acura RLX (not TLX), Buick LaCrosse, and Lincoln MKS. All of which are full sized, front wheel drive cars.

[@Dexion845]

+L30NHART Acura RLX has always been a RWD based platform

[@Dexion845]

+L30NHART Acura RLX has always been a RWD based platform

[@TheItsmegp46]

+Dexion845 Not true. The RLX base car is front wheel drive. The hybrid model only has all wheel drive.

[@romeotango58]

+Dexion845 The RLX is a front wheel drive car and has been for many years, all wheel drive is also available

[@Dermatrans]

Love it! Unfortunately its not imported in Europe. :-/

[@CRVgarage]

It's a very good alternative to A6 or 5 series.

[@RyanDoonan]

I definitely love the Lexus sedan even the ES we have a 16 es300H at the dealership I work at and I absolutely love it and been wondering about trying to get it would definitely get out of our 19 terrain denali for a Lexus

[@mariomaster0248]

If possible can you do a 2015/14 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid SHAWD. I knew you weren't a big fan of the normal RLX so I want to hear your thoughts on the Hybrid RLX.

[@asrockrpg]

Camerons Car Reviews Please do startup & review 2015 Lexus LS. Thanx!

[@LivPoxleitner]

That was a buttery review

[@joseph85al]

That Lexus color is so nice

[@alanhumphrey4198]

Atomic silver. I have one just like this.😊😊

[@leonwinkler7695]

What's up, It looks interesting. improve questionable What do you think, guys... !!

[@lisagilbert8758]

It hast to have a light on the inside of the visor on the right of the mirror.Also ridges and a small line so you can see what mode you are shifting to and ridges on the secular mode shifter.

[@discoveryman59]

The grill looks like SHIT!! No remote start? WTF!!!

[@Xemnes90]

Has anyone bought this car? It looks classy and wide car too and the exterior is amazing too. I saw it the other day and we're thinking to get it. We were about to buy NX but it wasn't comfortable in the back at all.

[@JaimeRayVaughn]

+Oldi Xemnes I bought one a few weeks ago. It rides really good, but I have to say there are some things I don't like about it. Also, the control device (next to the gear shift) looks different in mine than the one demonstrated here. Mine has a big knob instead of the trackpad.

[@Xemnes90]

JaimeRayVaughn Thank you so much for the reply, honestly it's good from the outside and so wide inside but didn't like the interior and it doesn't have much options, the dashboard looked so classy and it's too pricy. We just purchased Mazda CX-9 we should get it these days m,it's not a luxury car but still it's great and big for family and great price too. Thx again 😄

[@Xemnes90]

I'm sorry for criticizing the car, I just wanted to know if it's good or not. Congertulations for your car.

[@JaimeRayVaughn]

If you are considering the ES350, please contact me and I will give you any info you'd like. I like mine, but I have some concerns. My email is [e-mail]

[@smonkey001]

+Snake Plissken Great head up!

[@anismirawi]

what the hell is this? no gear shifter knob ! that's a world premier ladies and gentlemen a brand new car without a fucking gear knob are you kidding me?

[@ncsvcreations8671]

Its broken

[@hugoedwards1380]

Hi, A+ Work! kittens penitent What do you think...

[@wiisuperstar1]

Hello Cameron. Can you do a review on the Mercedes-Benz GL550?

[@naeem.hussain]

why no 360 degree camera . really want in next model.

[@Hummels_83]

Will those LED taillights fit on a 2013 model?

[@fazlkarimkhan5244]

[@jin5632]

Beau-Ti-Ful

[@vitzrnik8142]

Oldish engine and transmission for 50 000$ :) I think there are better choices out there than overpriced toyota... just my opinion...I like these reviews Cameron. Thanks

[@norakat]

Vit Zrnik - Yeah I wish it had an 8 speed transmission and more torque.

[@RomanM803]

I would get a 300c platinum instead of this car.

[@BrentPatterson1]

Nahhhh

[@BrentPatterson1]

Well ur opinion though

[@pvxxyfairy]

LOL

[@RomanM803]

Donny Ayye lol 😄

[@eleonik76]

+Jaylen Bond Yeah,and i would get LG instead of Alpine...

[@shuntodd812]

MY 2010 SATURN AURA HAS REMOTE START!! AND THIS 2016 LEXUS DOESNT EVEN HAVE IT!!

[@ricoaks7198]

Lexus is playing catch up , Hyundai is way ahead in the technology they offer. The Es is a luxury car please keep up with the competition by offering more options. No rear heated seat, I get more things in a Hyundai sonata these days.

[@puppXet]

Hyundai? As if.

[@ricoaks7198]

yea Hyundai

[@Z3sty367]

+Ric Oaks Lexus made a major leap with the exterior, however Hyundai is double timing with both exterior and interior. Lexus has a respectful reputation for reliability and comfort they aren't in any danger but Hyundai is really paving the way, the amount they offer for their money is becoming harder for people to overlook and their curiosity overuns people's negative association with the name. Great things to come.

[@ricoaks7198]

Daniel you are unbiased you said it better.. thanks.

[@yiyangcheng]

+Ric Oaks I think Hyundai does offer a lot of bang for your buck. But I wouldn't think a lot of people would be cross shopping both. Lexus are known for smoothness on the road like buicks and some people would want to get prestige as well. But it isn't to say hyundais/Kia sucks.

[@04tsxpower]

how oppulent

[@musicmaniac68]

The car is basically 50K. Why in the hell does the passenger side seat not have a power thigh extender. c'mon already.

[@pythagoreantheorem5301]

It's no where near 50k.

[@musicmaniac68]

I optioned one out pretty heavily on Edmunds and the MSRP was 48,600

[@pythagoreantheorem5301]

+John W Then comment this on a video that shows an optioned out ES. You were off 10k here.

[@musicmaniac68]

+Linsey Redd Just because this video isn't doesn't mean it's not a $50k car.

[@Robmar40]

I paid 49.5k out the door price for mine fully loaded.

[@MarcG7424]

Did I see seat memory buttons on the front passenger door. Never saw that before.

[@norakat]

Marc G - yes

[@samialmalki7874]

اعطي الكاتشب لماجد !!!

[@jplay0426]

I was considering this car, but this is just plain ugly, not even worth a trip to Lexus

[@sandeepp6300]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, when it comes to cars, more so than beautiful women

[@AventadorBeats]

370Z?

[@AventadorBeats]

370Z?

[@omgitsme435]

Desperately needs f sport. Get the best of both worlds

[@matthewyim1736]

+W-_-T But the ES doesn't get the F Sport package. Only the GS, LS, NX, CT, RC, IS, and RX

[@omgitsme435]

Matthew's Car Corner Exactly, that's what it needs considering it's a V6 and pulls faster than a IS 200t and NX which are supposed to be "sporty." It'll attract more buyers if it looked more aggressive.

[@matthewyim1736]

Maybe in the future, the ES will get the F Sport Package.

[@ricoaks7198]

I love my lexus but hyundai is changing the game.

[@Casualdriver]

+Ric Oaks HAHAHA are you really comparing Hyundai with Lexus... Hyundai has gone a long way but it will never be a Lexus!!! Check all ratings for reliability and especially resale value.

[@ricoaks7198]

Why not they are all luxury cars just as bmw , acura , audi etc. Years ago people said the same about Lexus when they started out and they were no benz and bmw. Hyundai is that path and doing really well. Remember lexus was just rebranded toyota.

[@Casualdriver]

Hyundai still has a long path to go... like I said, check resale value, reliability and quality ratings... Lexus are pretty much #1.

[@Assimilator702]

Yes the head of Toyota said the one thing that keeps him awake at night is Hyundai. This was in an interview years ago.

[@Casualdriver]

Because Hyundai sell their cars really cheap but they aren't worth anything after a few years... People like low prices but are stuck with a worthless car after 3-4 years.

[@jaykay643]

One word sums it up...yuck. Lexus takes over ugly where Pontiac left off.

[@MAXBLU04]

you need to have the car to present-not just off the truck-DUDE-and you presentation is a direct ripoff-He does it a lot better-but nice try

[@ganapatihegde1024]

The front grill looks horrible!

[@matthewyim1736]

Why? If you look at it in person, it looks good.

[@jasvinder2507]

No it’s good people work hard to make it

[@tonygerald9244]

or buy a Ford Fusion awd and save 20K

[@Кілбаса]

これはアバロン並の大きさなのか
