What new feature would you like most in in the 2014 lexus ES350/300 - Corrected
#46
The GPS is my biggest hangup on the current Lexus although I'd certainly like some of the other features I've put in the survey. It is also hard to get much information on a new GPS system. You'll probably find an extremely detailed review if they change the tail light on a car between years but about all you'll find about a new GPS is that it is "updated" which for all you know means they've added new streets to the index. I probably wouldn't even care about getting a new car if the GPS on my car could be replaced but it can't so I'm looking for a new car.

I would like to see the flaxen leather (medium brown) from the GS available in the ES. The current parchment is too light. Some wood trim around the shift console would also be nice. Too plasticy for a lux car, especially noticeable in the parchment interior (not as much so with black).

This is what i want in the new es350
The only thing the Lexus ES350 is missing is the interior of the 2007-2012 model....................I cant believe they went 2 steps back..................plastic leather on a luxury vehicle? less wood? a lousy computer mouse, less quite .... one word to describe it..........SHAMEFUL
it is a shame that out of 17 luxury vehicle the ES350 is number 13................................check Consumer reports rating for anyone in doubt.

I actually have no issues with the interior. I like it much better than the 2011 that's in my family. Also, I do not have plastic seats, they're 100% semi-aniline leather. Well, not 100%, but that's normal. The base model's "pleather", I heard, is actually quite nice. It's just not for me. That's why we have options. I actually prefer using the mouse, now that I'm used to it, vs. a touch screen. It's way less distracting to use. Sounds like you should have gotten the Avalon instead.
Every car critics agree that Lexus have taken 1 or 2 step back with the new version. In fact Lexus have received so many complaints regarding the interior and control that the 2014 version has been updated. Wait and see the pictures coming out in October.
