Lexus ES

"Vehicle accelerates nicely, but shifting from 2nd to 3rd is rough/abrupt if the accelerator is let up slightly during shift."

"Handling is VERY smooth and responsive. Acceleration is not always responsive -- delayed or slow particularly for merge or passing situations"

"Handling, smoothness, sound"

"It is now showing age with less smooth acceleration but I know it is headed for repairs of major parts."

"Acceleration and handling is very good for a car of its size"

"It handles very efficiently."

"all good, great acceleration, easy 1 finger steering."

"Very reliable, Transmission is quirky."

"Only disadvantage was premium gas required, but acceleration is still excellent 15 years later"

"it drives better than my 2012 accord. quick and nimble, accelerates very nicely. heated seats are great and they turn off when I select them off. can't wait to buy a newer one!"

"This car (STILL) rides like a magic carpet--we are amazed after all these years and miles how smooth, quiet, and secure the ride maintains."

"excellent"

"Great on the street and at the track"

"Very quiet and extremely comfortable. Very good heat/ ac."

"As a 14 year old car the ride remains excellent. Quiet & comfortable with great handling and acceleration."

"VERY HAPPY WITH SEATS; NO HIGH NOISELEVEL; RIDE GREAT WHEN TIRES INFLATED WELL."

"First time we experienced heated seats."

"Vehicle is used to drive back and forth from New England to southwest Florida. Always comfortable with plenty of room"

"Comfortable seats and ride highway driving. Dependable with little maintenance."

"Very comfortable car. Good for long drives"

"Large comfortable leather seats, quiet interior, smooth ride"

"Like sitting in a nice easy chair, minimal noise, comfy ride."

"Quiet, comfortable, durable, good back support, nice leather texture"

"the seats are too large for me and notwithstanding the many controls, I can't seem to find an optimum setting."

"It's a fairly noisy and bumpy ride"

"Quality car built to last. Better Value than other high end cars."

"Worry free vehicle, easy to maintain, great drive experience"

"This vehicle 14 years old and just keeps going. It has a few signs of wear and tear, but it's a great second car for in town transportation."

"At $32,000 off the lot (with considerable options) this car far exceeds the value mark for return on investment. Up until the 12 year point all we ever did was standard maintenance, tires, and batteries without a major expense. Since then we have had to replace the headlamps, engine mounts, front axel boot, and lower control arms all at a cost under $4000. Amortized over 14 years that is spectacular ROI; very low cost to maintain. We would not hesitate to get in this car and take a cross country trip today!"

"The value is somewhat obvious since I have owned this vehicle for 14 years with minimal quality issues and expenses."

"Value over time is excellent."

"13 YEARS EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE AND STILL RUNS LIKE NEW."

"A first class ride to this day. Have not had any major problems and it still provides a very nice and comfortable ride."

"The Lexus is extremely quiet, comfortable and has given us no problems. Repairs are usually scheduled maintenance. I guess that is why we don't want to get rid of it."

"Only one isue that required major repair other than standard maintenance. As the original and only driver I do not use many miles so relatively light use. Still holds road well and keeps me safe."

"I've owned this car since May 2004. It has about 196,000 miles on it. I've had to do very few repairs. It's been unusually reliable."
