Reliable luxury

Almost 240,000 miles and still drives like an easy chair. Quiet, controlled and downright relaxing to drive. Very little maintenance needed outside of the regular stuff. I am shocked that most of the components have lasted these 20 years and still look good. Even original paint has withstood the test of time with aplomb.

Es 330 Lexus

I am an owner of an Es330 Lexus 2004. It has 100 thousand miles . It runs smoothly, very comfortable the radio sounds great. The air conditioner freezes and the car looks beautiful. The only thing I have put in it is just a new battery. It is really a great car.

Emotionally attached!

Without a doubt, THE best car ever made! It’s comfort and reliability are second to none. Other than routine maintenance, repairs to this 17 year old car have been limited to only motor mounts, rear sway bar bushings, a valve cover gasket and a radiator hose. That’s it! We thought, because of its age, we might sell it. But after it being listed for only 2 days, we just could not bring ourselves to part with it deciding to keep it and sell our much newer Honda Accord instead.

A keeper

I love driving this car. Its powerful and sturdy, quiet and so smooth. My sister has a Mercedes her husband has a BMW both newer neither smoother. Low maintenance was a. Big surprise almost no maintenance except oil changes and tune ups. I did upgrade my stereo to include bluetooth, DVD,, navigation, and a backup camera. I don't want to get rid of this car. My next car will also be a Lexus. I'm keeping this one though..

2004 model, the best car I've ever own and still going strong. No mechanical problems in 15 years.! Just keep up with the recommended maintenance.

Still going

Our Lexus is 15 years old and in good running condition-thanks to Robin at ANR. I gave it high reviews because it still looks good and is running good in spite of its age. It is left idle 6 months of the year when we disconnect the battery and it always starts when we get back to Florida. Not bad for a 15 year old car!

Great vehicle still going after 100K miles

I have had no major repairs that aren't expected with 100,000 miles. It's still comfortable to drive. At this time, however, I wish it had some of the new safety features. I'm short, so I can see over the hood well for parking. Blind spots are always an issue. Highly recommend Lexus vehicles. There is a certain hesitation when accelerating if you don't press evenly on the gas. I like the features that allow me to adjust seat for comfort, and wheel to create 12" distance from chest. Love leather seat comfort. Wish it had parking assistance like today's models, and large gps camera. I'd consider newer vehicle only for safety features.

2014 ES 330

My Lexus has been reliable as long as I've had it. It now has over 181000 miles and still running great. Following the recommended scheduled maintenance has paid for itself as this car is still running strong.

The Best!!

I am so fortunate to have selected my Lexus when I did. It is most comfortable to drive and have never yet had any serious problems with this model in all the years I have owned it. I would recommend a Lexus to anyone looking for a dependable and easy to drive car.

2004 Lexus ES330

Durable, strong and reliable. What can I say with 238,000 miles and still going strong. I bought this car with about 100,000 and put in over 130,000 myself and it has been just a great car. Very few repairs required. .

It’s my 3rd Lexus!

I’m on #3 and will probably buy a 4th! I’m a “road warrior” and like a car that has some power. I like the roominess, seats with lumbar support, and the sturdiness and weight of the car. Resale, reliability and style count, too. Haven’t found a vehicle that I like as well!

168,000 Miles of Smooth Driving

We bought the 2004 ES Lexus ES330 in 2004. At the time, we had a minivan, a BMW M3 and BMW Z4. I was starting to drive long distances and didn't want to put big miles on the M3/Z4. Didn't like the '04 5-series or E-class, so thought we'd try Lexus. I despised the car for the first three years. In terms of driving long commutes, it was immaculate. Quiet, smooth, comfortable, 29MPG highway, great stereo. And because it didn't have the ride, power, and excitement of the M3/Z4's, I really disliked it. 14 years later, we are doing everything we can to keep the car going for ten more years! Until this last service, at 168,000, it has not had a fault. Nothing, other than a new battery, and, of course, oil, brakes, and tires. Last week, I put in new rear struts, front control arms, and valve cover gaskets. Less than $500 plus my labor. Lexus built a fantastic car, that remains stylish, comfortable, quiet, smooth, and hopefully, reliable.

I love Lexus vehicles

I've had my 2004 ES 330 Lexus for about 9 years now and it's still going strong at 161,500 miles. It's my second Lexus (my first was a 1990 LS 400 that I finally traded in with 289,000 miles and 18 years old). I purchased my 2004 ES 330 from the Lexus dealership in Sacramento used, with 45,000 miles and an extended warranty. My car has been reliable, gets good gas mileage, has the power I need to go uphill, and has the comfort for long or short drives. My husband drove a Mercedes but the ride was not as comfortable as my Lexus. I don't much care for the grill on the latest models so will hold out to get another until I see one that catches my eye although it would be good to have the latest electronic features that newer cars have. Years ago I drove a Cadillac Seville and I had that car in the shop every single month! But not my Lexus...it's been a dream to own and drive.

Nearly wonderful

I have put every one of the 215,000 miles one this car and I really hate to give it up. It's been perfect for a guy like me to HATES to work on cars. Nothing is ever wrong. Only glitch was the transmission which was faulty from the very start. The shift from 1st to 2nd gear is jerky, particularly at low RPM's. Lexus told me they couldn't feel the problem, but online, I found many other ES 330 owners of the same year model who had the same issue.
