1999 Lexus ES 300

Pros: Smooth, quiet ride, beautiful styling, good acceleration

Cons: Little backseat room, placement of cd changer, should have had xenon lights standard

The Bottom Line: If you want affordable luxury for low price with great resell value this is the car for you. Best way to describe is, SUPER SMOOTH!

Review: First of all, the name says it all, LEXUS. But this car is exactly what you would expect a Lexus to ...

Pros: Ride, power, Looks

Cons: Cost, service cost

The Bottom Line: Just as good as the LS400 but not as expensive.

Review: This is my second es300, the first was a 1992. I got a used coach edition. I was thinking of the 2002 models but didn't like the new look. Decided on a good used one. This car ride like the LS 400 (I had a 1996 model), but doesn't use as much gas. ...

Pros: Elegant, dependable, safe, and fun to drive.

Cons: I find the climate control system a little confusing to operate and it is not independent.

Review: My Lexus ES 300 is like the perfect boyfriend: reliable, dependable, and hot!

I love this car. My fiance and I purchased it in 1999 after trading in his 1995 BMW 525i and like it 100% better. We have never had a problem with it, whereas with...

Pros: One smooth, quiet riding machine, with classic style and a luxury interior.

Cons: Really can't think of any.

The Bottom Line: I think the Lexus' are an excellent value and give a lot of pleasure on our crowded roads.

Review: I bought my first Lexus, a 1999 model, in 2003 and I am enjoying that car more and more, the more I drive it. I have been driving Toyota's since 1986 and I can't think of buying anything else now. I drive Taurus's at work, and I'll discuss (or ...

Pros: A great luxury car for a great price. A very reliable car.

Cons: Lacking in some of the bells and whistles of other luxury cars.

The Bottom Line: If you want a fun luxury car to drive that doesn't cost you an arm and a leg, then you'll enjoy this car.

Review: I've had 2 Lexus ES 300 and have loved them both. I've owned both a Lincoln Continental and a Mercedes and believe this car drives and handles much better. I especially like the size-not too big and not too small. The leg room in the front is very...

Pros: Quality, Quiet, Ride, Comfort

Cons: Aging body style

Review: I leased a 99 ES300 because the monthly cost was far lower than other manufacturers offering near luxury cars with MSRP's between $35-38,000. The dealer (Prestige Lexus) was very helpful and very low pressure. I was equally impressed with all vehicles...

Pros: It's almost perfect

Cons: Back seat a bit tight; maintenance could be pricey.

The Bottom Line: If you can find a significant problem with a Lexus, you probably have bigger problems.

Review: It's as quiet as a tomb - great ride, the Nakamichi stereo will make your ears ring if you like. Economy is good - I get 23 MPG combined. It has plenty of speed when you need it. The local service organization is excellent and I've heard others are the...

Pros: Lots of luxury from Lexus at a very low price. Strong and smooth engine.

Cons: Model is not very attractive. Model of Toyota Camry is almost same but more attractive.

Review: I have driven Lexus ES 300 so many times. This car is a very good car available with lots of luxury at a very resonable price. You can enjoy the luxury of Lexus at low cost. If we don't consider the luxury, Toyota Camry is almost the same car as Lexus EX...

Pros: The way a luxury car should be.

Cons: Small backseat. Price??

Review: At over $30,000, this car is not cheap. Essentially, it is a quieted Camry, with a tuned engine and suspension. However, the end product is a feel of luxury.

Backseat is cramped, especially for leg room.

Leather is soft and...

Pros: Luxurious, comfy and well-padded interior, quietness, smooth acceleration

Cons: Funky, outdated remote key-entry control. Traction control too sensitive.

The Bottom Line: Great if buy NEW, Great if buy USED. If you want luxury with quality and performance, I recommend Lexus over BMW.

Review: I had driven Toyota cars for years, starting with the Corolla, then on to a sporty Celica and a 4-cylinder Camry. I also had the pleasure to ride in Acura and BMW.

When it was time for a new car about 2.5 years ago, I was looking at BMW...
