2012 Lexus ES User Reviews

Pros

Sweet Ride

Cons

None

Purchased As New

Really tight built car. Drives and handles excellent. Dealer service is in a class by itself. If they need to keep the car for anything. They provide a current model Lexus.
No disappointments here.

Pros

Comfort, quality, ride, navigation, park assist, extras

Cons

None worth mentioning

Purchased As Used

I love this car. I bought it used. after several years of Toyota ownership. Never disappointed, so I stepped up to the ES 350. I have owned two Mercedes (82 and 89). This car offers more of everything, with fewer repairs than either of the MBs.

Pros

Good fuel economy, engine power, smooth ride

Cons

Handling is a bit mushy

Purchased As New

Very nice car for the money. Got 32.5 MPG on a recent highway trip, better than expected.

Pros

Exquisite! Great safety features, fast/responsive, quiet

Cons

Would be nice to get more than 20mpg; Make option for super cushy seats for fat-assed dudes like me

I thought I'd never like anything better than my Caddy DeVille, but my wife insisted I drop my pimp ride and move into the 21st century with a Lexus ES 350.
Loaded with everything, this is the best car I've ever owned. I will drive this car into the ground. Beautiful, mechanically perfect, incredible service at my Lexus dealership. Exceptional pickup speed. I've been pulled over 3 times for speeding bc I didn't realize how fast I was going. Until then, I had a perfect driving record (35 years driving).
Sound system, nav system great.
If I had to do it over again, I'd not have purchased the protective film on the bra and side view mirrors.
I put down $25,000 on this and lease it for 4 years for $200/mo. I'm thinking of extending the lease and making double payments just so I can keep it under service. Lexus has amazing customer service....read morehide

I am very happy wth my purchase. The car has almost everything that I was looking for including luxury, good gas mileage, and feature rich. I bought with the optional GPS (review camera), front & rear obstacle sensor, and rear shade. I just passed 500 miles and am average around 22 mpg.

Quality at every level

Wallflower

Purchased As New

The ES has always been a popular wallflower...Everyone who drives them loves them but no one else notices. I dont get heads turn when i drive...I dont get valets run to park...but I also dont get CHP on my ass.
My ES is only 1 month old and I love it...It has power...control, torque and flexibility. It is a far smoother ride than any previous ES. I know it will be redesigned in the next 6 months but I have fallen in love with my 2012....read morehide

Lexus has done a great job on the ES class cars. I recommend you test drive one and I guarantee you will buy it! I will always have a Lexus in my driveway.
