It's So SIMPLE! | Lexus ES 350 Review 2024

[@beekaye1496]

One of the best cars for daily driving especially if you can find it used with less than 60K miles.

[@tonysterbenc]

Heck, on these cars, 60k is barely broken in.

[@jeffreyhoward6793]

I purchased the ES 350 Luxury last month and I love it. Mine has the Panorama Glass Roof and the Tech Package which includes Head-Up Display, SmartAccess Car Key, the larger touch screen, and wireless charging. Mine also has memory settings on the door and the 18" alloy wheels.

[@jpizel1070]

Does the larger screen eliminate all the blank space on the screen like this one has?

[@Tommy-Eagle-USA]

Yes​@@jpizel1070

[@alanhumphrey4198]

You bought a great car...😊😊

[@Cinderblock1985]

This must be a base model I have the ultra luxury version. Traded my bmw in for it and I have never made a better decision

[@ThrottleOnly]

Yeah there are a bunch of trims for it, this one is on the lower end

[@pfunk2637]

why is it better than the BMW?

[@Cinderblock1985]

Bout mine with 3 miles on it. Almost at 10000 miles now. Perfect car

[@kurtolson1303]

Thanks for the review. I bought a 2024 and I Love it !

[@jdub976]

I know this is a fancy Camry but the look is just so nice. This is really high up on my next vehicle list. Thank you for the review.

[@tonysterbenc]

And, it's a VERY fancy Camry. It's bigger with a longer wheelbase, rides better with standard trick shocks, is quieter with better insulation (especially the Luxury trims), and is better built on its own dedicated assembly line with higher standards, tighter tolerances and better paint. And as the cherry on top, the Mark Levinson stereo really sounds good.

[@spearofconquest]

smart people buy Lexus. Bmw, Benz, Audi, Gensis etc. are all good to great vehicles depending on what you're looking for. but the cost of maintenance and unreliability make it a money pit that isn't realistic for most people. Buy a used lexus for 30-35k and you'll have a luxury vehicle that runs great for 10 years and will have a better trade-in value.

[@Tommy-Eagle-USA]

This is not even on the same planet of a Camry, the ES 350 is actually based off the Avalon. Even still it is not even close, in regards to ride quality and cabin noise.

[@alanhumphrey4198]

I want one of these..but I have a 2017 ES with only 60,000 miles that has been a perfect vehicle.😊😊

[@tonysterbenc]

You did good. Those are among the most solid used cars ever made.

[@Tommy-Eagle-USA]

Don't fall into the hybrid hype, yes they get better gas mileage, but they are not fun to drive in any regard. This is a big beautiful sedan, it requires a V6 to be great.

[@storyofmylife7080]

Great review! I love Lexus!

[@JohnSmith-w8r3r]

I love this car but I wished the dashboard was like the Camry … I don’t like the drive mode selector position :(

[@lukewalker1051]

Well done on the review. Thank you.

[@ThrottleOnly]

Thanks for watching!!!🙏🏾

[@WYLNXCA]

Nice video

[@ThrottleOnly]

Thanks for watching!!

[@AB25a1]

The grill almost reminds me of some of the design trends from the 1930s. I bet the design team took a few hints from their car geek favorites.

[@ianmonkhouse4368]

What about the Sat Nav it is never explained or discussed ?

[@tonysterbenc]

It's optional, and nav through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto (wireless for both is standard) is better.

[@TheLexusIS250Dude]

Very nice review I am a owner of a 2019 ES350 and I absolutely love it. I just have the basic model but I have tinted windows and I just recently got a 10.26 inch HD Apple Carplay and Android Auto headunit. But eventually I want to do a muffler delete and possibly put cold air intake. My previous car was a 2014 IS250 it had the 2.5 liter but I sold it back in 2020. It was fully loaded.

[@ThrottleOnly]

@@TheLexusIS250Dude thanks for watching!! That’s sickk I bet that head unit makes the car even nicer. I think these cars age so nicely looks wise

[@dubasciver3234]

Well done. In the future you may want to eliminate the word ‘here’ from your presentation. Play it back and listen to how many times you say that word. By the way, I believe the next trim up includes memory seats. I love Lexus. Pretty inexpensive for a luxury brand. I would call it an affordable man’s luxury car, if you are in the financial bracket that allows you to buy one.

[@ThrottleOnly]

@@dubasciver3234 love the feedback, thanks for helping me improve!!

[@Doctaj54]

Thanks Is navigation standard on the smaller screen as well?

[@tonysterbenc]

Don't think so, although most people nowadays just use nav apps through their phones anyway, and it'll do that.

[@s-man9528]

Good review man

[@ThrottleOnly]

@@s-man9528 thanks for watching!!

[@stevenwolff6866]

This car lacks the premium package which I consider essential when paying the $ for this vehicle.

[@tonysterbenc]

That may be true, but you'll pay $$ for the Premium Package version. Making KZbin reviews doesn't pay much, and I suspect a KZbinr like this gentleman is restricted by the specific cars he's able to obtain.

[@Cinderblock1985]

It does have the premium it’s called ultra luxury. I have one

[@tonysterbenc]

@@Cinderblock1985 Premium Package is an option package addition to the base trim level. Ultra Luxury is the top trim level. The two are not the same thing.

[@tinhinnh]

wheel size??

[@ThrottleOnly]

They are standard 17in wheels

[@tonysterbenc]

Like he said. 17" base, 18" Luxury and Ultra Luxury, 19" F Sport.

[@tinhinnh]

@@tonysterbenc he never said the size 😉

[@farhantanvir7908]

is it awd ?

[@ThrottleOnly]

This is FWD

[@bigbadricefarmer]

It's strange, I4 250 gets AWD, but this is FWD 🤔

[@tonysterbenc]

AWD is only available with the old Camry's rough, inadequate Four. They didn't design the platform with enough room underneath for both a V6 and the bulky AWD transfer case, though nobody seems to know why.
