I bought my 2018 Lexus ES350 "previously owned" in 2021.

I bought my 2018 Lexus ES350 "previously owned" in 2021. It had 18K miles on it and was Lexus Certified. It now has 30K miles on it and has been a good car for me. I love this car and would buy it all over again. It is a smooth running car and has been reliable. It is a comfortable car with great looks. The only downside is the "unusual" user interface center console control. This model year did not have a touch screen. I have adapted to the big square button used to manipulate the display screen and it's not so bad. Other than that, no complaints so far. I hope Lexus continues to offer the ES350 in the future. It is a classy, reliable car that I intend on keeping for quite some time.

Great Ride Lacking in technology

2018 Lexus ES350 purchased as Certified Pre Owned Typically receive great service from Germain Lexus. Car has decent acceleration, ride is good however seats can be some what hard after 6 hours behind the wheel, technology is lagging with no ability to upgrade in reference to android auto or apple car play, handling and breaking is very good.

Most reliable vehicle

Owning a Lexus will prove to be one of the wisest decision you've every made. Speaking from experience here ... 1998 ES300 w/175k mi - Runs as smooth as new - Minimal repairs over the years. Maybe spent $800 on repair other than regular stuff. 2010 ES350 w/175k mi - Ran awesome until someone totaled. Replaced master cylinder and reg mait otherwise. Awesome car!! 2017 ES350 w/55k mi - Like brand new - Never one issue since new. 2018 ES350 w/67k mi - Just replaced the 2010 with this. Perfect vehicle doesn't begin to describe how I feel about it.

Excellent vehicle

Love the car. Only setback is the seats not very comfortable on long trip and need more comfort. Other than that the vehicle is great and runs very smooth. Lexus service is great and very personal service.

Love my Replacement Car

I loved my Lexus that was totalled in 2020 and was sad about car shopping again. However, I found another Lexus ES350 that I like just as much. Lexus cars have been extremely reliable for my family. Not sure about all of the technology in them now - might have to replace those parts more. Regardless, I really enjoy riding in a Lexus - so comfortable, great audio, hands off assistance, automatic bright light dimmer, and other features. Go try one out today!

Our fifth Lexus

This is a change for us. This 5th Lexus replaces our previous LX 350's. The seats are a tad firm vs. the RX 350's from the past, but we underutilized them. This car is flawless. And the Atomic Silver with black interior is beautiful inside and out. A wonderful driving machine! The cabin knobs and and function buttons are a bit too numerous. Just starting to understand the function keys slowly.
