Not only that, for goodness sakes, that was over 14 years ago, AND it was the FIRST attempt. AND its widely known the ES 250 was just a stop gap until the ES 300 rolled around. The Majority of the money was in the LS 400.

Clearly when Lexus did it RIGHT, the ES has become one of the top cars in class and has not looked back.

And for goodness sakes, it AT LEAST at a V-6.

It wasnt?

Have you ever been in one? they are damned small!

But loveable to say the least. there is nothing that compares to the way an ES250 rides, its just unique, not anywhere as good as an LS, but DEFINATELY better than a legend fo the same year, and wayyyyyy ahead of its time.
