I have the ES300h. . It's the Ultra Luxury trim, which is what we wanted and is the highest trim for the ES hybrid. It is the Cloudburst Gray exterior with Acorn color semi-aniline leather interior. Total Installed Packages & Accessories: 1) Premium Triple-beam LED headlamps; 2) Smartacess Card Key; 3) Premium Paint; 4) Lexus Interface with 12.3-in Multimedia Touchscreen Display; 5) Ultra Luxury Package; 6) All weather floor liners and trunk mat; 7) Door edge film by 3M; 8) The Preferred Accessory Package; and 9) The Dealer added a 5-year windshield protection/replacement coverage package and tinted the driver and passenger windows. More: The three-projector design creates an eye-catching L shape. Adding to this brilliant design, the headlamps feature LED side turn signals, as well as an Adaptive Front Lighting System6 that uses steering and speed sensors to direct the angle of low-beam illumination as the vehicle enters a curve. The Adaptive Front Lighting System monitors steering and speed with a suite of sensors and will automatically adjust the angle of your low-beam headlights to improve visibility on curved roads. Ultra Luxury extras: 1) 18-inch split-five-spoke alloy noise-reduction wheels 2) Power rear sunshade with manual rear-door sunshades 3) Power open/close trunk with kick sensor 4) 12.3-inch multimedia touchscreen display 10.2-inch Head-Up Display 5) Intuitive Parking Assist with Auto Braking and Rear Pedestrian Detection, and Panoramic View Monitor. Averaging 43+ MPG City/Hwy driving and I had the oil and filter changed at 1,000 miles for my own peace of mind. Just For Reference: I was not going to wait one-year or 10,000 miles to have the factory installed oil & filter changed. And, I shall be changing the Oil (Liqui Moly 0W-16 Spec V) and Toyota filter every 5,000 miles from now on. Like Scotty Kilmer says, oil & filters are cheap, engines are expensive. LOL 😎

[@MattTheCarguy]

Sounds like a really nice spec. And 43 mpg definitely sounds great!

We have the es hybrid too … beautiful pearl white Carmel interior … the best car I have ever owned

[@randy74989]

@@christopherstreet2214 Agree, completely and I have been buying cars since the 60s.

[@avdp9095]

Probably the best build car around, but the styling is not premium....

[@MattTheCarguy]

Very solid build. I dont mind the looks just feels a bit heavy.

28:06. A LUXURY is NOT supposed to have engine noise barreling inside the cabin. This isn’t a Ford Pinto. Sales of this generation LS are downright embarrassing. Despite the nice looking exterior and interior, it’s cramped, no rear seat toe space under the front seats, ride is worse than previous generation and that gawddamn engine noise intruders inside. Thankfully Lexus customers said HELL NO!!!!

[@MattTheCarguy]

I disagree, many luxury vehicles if not all produce an engine, noise, some are even "speaker" enhanced. Imo it adds to the vehicle rather than take it away. As far as sales it is the trend for large luxury vehicles. Many people switched to large SUV. As much as I like them I think their "glory days" are over.

[@ebglock]

Many one day you can afford one.

[@avdp9095]

Because the drive the car as a sportscar....this LS is ultra quiet.

[@chadhaire1711]

drives for 5 minutes.......what a farce

[@MattTheCarguy]

7min 55s.... get your facts straight 😂

[@chadhaire1711]

@@MattTheCarguyIm sure you got some accurate fuel economy numbers on that "long" hybrid trip.... LOL

[@MattTheCarguy]

@@chadhaire1711 Ibthink you are missing the point. This is test drive, not an extended drive. But if you have one and are willing to let me drive it for a week or so I will gladly present the accurate numbers... and have fun while doing so but untill then i have to rely on manufacturers and EPA data.

Lol. Jealousy
