I’m considering pulling the trigger on a 2023 ES 300h. What are your thoughts about these cars being built in Kentucky? As opposed to Japan? It is my understanding that the engine, transmission, and other parts are from Japan though. Thanks
Tbh lexus is one of those brands that retains value so well as people trust buying them even at above 150k km. While people start doubting french at 60k km+ and german above 100k km
My 2017 xle camry has 162k miles on it. $0 cost in maintenance Looks great and runs like a top. I'm looking at these to replace it and if they are anything better than my camry it'll be a homerun and no Brainer .
@obinna12 lol I'm rolling the dice with my camry it runs great why dump it. But my 2022 4 runner will be going away a new Gx460. That is night and day difference.
Thank you for the great content. I have a 2019 ES 300h (my first Lexus Hybrid - coming from a Honda Hybrid). There is a loud noise coming from the brake booster pump every time I open the drivers seat or occasionally while driving. I have wrapped it with sound deadening (heat proof) material since sometimes it is extremely loud. Maybe that's the way it's supposed to function? Funny how I didn't notice that during the test drive and what might be loud for me might not be noticeable to others. Perhaps it's because the car is so quiet that you hear everything (kinda ironic). Thank you!
Hello, am I getting this right: - until facelift: no touchscreen, only touchpad - after facelift as well as the 2022 modell: touchscreen and touchpad - 2023 modell (and onwards): touchscreen, but no touchpad Thank you in advance.
Very little to no cost in ownership for easily over 200k miles. If you want flashy look at me your paying though the nose in up front cost and throughout the ownership life. We buy these cars because they are stylish unbeatable dependability and use our cash for other things that bring in more cash. Real estate, stocks , retirement. Hard to buy these things if your flipping for parts and repairs . Get a certain age you you don't care what others think. You'll get there as well
That's a base model ES 300h so the seats have Perforated NuLuxe, that's not real leather. It's not even an option on the base model. Only the Luxury and Ultra Luxury versions have real leather seats.
