Thank you for all the kind words! I will most likely start a thread once I start making changes to the car to document how the car changes over time

Hi. I just purchased a certified pre-owned 2015 in Atomic Silver with a black interior. It has the Luxury package with a rear spoiler. I prefer the 17" 10-spoke wheels and the dealership was willing to swap them out for the 18s it originally came with. This car replaced my nearly 19-year old 2001 Nissan Maxima with 241k miles.

Default Hello to all.

Hello fellow Lexus owners. I just purchased a used 2015 ES 300h with 26k and so far, I love it. Best seats for my bad back.

I was wondering if other hybrid owners can fill me in on the most important aspects of maintenance on this car as this is the first hybrid I've owned to date.

Thanks in advance.. Rafa

Congrats! Just do the maintenance per the manual. This car requires maintenance just like any other car... nothing more. There's nothing to put on the watch list. If anything, your maintenance expenses likely will decrease when compared to a traditional car. For one, you will probably never have to change your brakes and rotors due to the regenerative braking system.

Enjoy!

Congrats to you!!! Though I haven't owned a Hybrid but I can assure you of the high reliability and dependability of Toyota/Lexus brands. I don't think there is any highly exception maintenance procedures to follow; I am sure other owners of Hybrid would give you more details. Anyways, enjoy your Lexus, drive safely!!!!

Thumbs up new owner of a 2014 ES 350

Hello all -

New owner of my first Lexus (used). Couldn't be happier. Excellent ride, smooth and refined. Shopped around before deciding on this Lexus. Looked at the Camry XSE, Avalon, Genesis, and Kia K900 before deciding on the ES 350.

2014 ES 350
  • Bought used.
  • 31.5K miles
  • $20,300
  • Premium and Luxury packages.
  • Nebula Gray Exterior
  • Light Gray Interior
  • Originally bought and sold locally in Southern California
  • New battery, tires
  • 1-Owner Vehicle
Looking to replace the readily accessible halogen lights to LEDs. Other than that, nothing else is required. I hope to find some vendor and part number suggestions for this project.

Cheers!
