Hey Guys,
Just purchased my 2019 ES350 F-Sport2 and am loving it...
Great Handling...
Great Acceleration...
Great Features...
Wish it had Android Auto... My main gripe

Also here in Canada, we don't get the full features of the Ensuite Apps neither do we have remote start, which is my second main gripe

Other than that I am still getting to know the vehicle

Cool

Hello all. I'm AJ. Picked up an ES350 Ultra Lux on the day after Christmas here in sunny Florida. Eminent White Pearl with black interior (which is really dark gray). I think it has everything I wanted except the illuminated door sills. Also regret that there is no Android Auto yet. Hopefully it will be included in a future software update.

Default New Lexus ES Owner

As my Genesis(Hyundai) lease is coming to an end, I’ve been lurking on all Lexus dealer websites in the area. Finally contacted one by email and their internet director called me. I went to the dealership, met her and the salesperson I would be dealing with. Took a test drive and happy to say, bought a 2019 es350 ul. Just came off the truck last week. Silver lining metallic with black interior. Loaded with all options except lit door and trunk sills. I pick it up in 2 weeks. Keeping the Genesis through Jan when I will end the lease. Can’t wait! Have to say in all my 50 yrs of buying cars, Lexus staff head and shoulders above the rest..

Congrats! The Genesis is a great car too.

Hello... just purchased a 2019 ES 350 Ultra Luxury... I think with everything on it? Silver Lining with Chateau. Don't have it yet, enroute to dealer. Supposed to be able to pick it up the end of this week (maybe Monday next week). Getting pretty anxious!

Default 2019 ES F-Sport

White/red (colors I did not anticipate buying!)
Navigation/ML audio
LED headlights
BSM, etal
AVS

My family car - grandkids and mother-in-law! But sporty enough to open it up when I want to, and the styling and finish are superlative.



Not the best pic, but... They say white is the new silver. Or black? I forget.

18-in 5 Spoke Alloy Wheels
Blindspot Monitor w/Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Intuitive Parking Assist w/ Auto Breaking…Panoramic View Monitor

My previous car was a 2006 Lexus GS300, which actually had a smoother ride than this one does.

After tinting the windows:


Look at the sparkles in the Caviar paint:

Greetings, I'm a first time Lexus owner. I needed something with a bit more room so I traded in my Mini Cooper S. Goodbye zoom zoom, hello refined elegance and the ability to carry more than one person.

ES 300h Ultra Luxury with:
  • ML Stereo: Meh. OK I guess, nothing I would want to put my name on.
  • 18-in Noise-Reduction wheels. Look sweet, the car is quite so I guess they are working.
  • HUD: Love it. One of the tie breakers between the Lexus and some other cars
  • Blind Spot monitor: Very glad to have it, takes some getting used to,
  • Other safety (pedestrian, cross traffic, etc..): Too soon to tell but very happy to have them.
  • 12.3-in screen: Gorgeous, can't wait to get Waze on it.
  • Heated Steering Wheel: Oh my! Where have you been all my life! (it's 20 degrees here now...)
  • Triple Beam Headlights: Sexy! But the turning is freaking me out man.
  • Wireless Charger - Worthless, to me. It won't charge either of our Qi equipped Androids (yes I turned it on)
  • All weather mats - I guess the dealer needs to make a few bucks, but they are nice.
  • Illuminated Door Sills - Umm yeah, it has that, it's a thing. I guess.
  • Key Glove: Are you kidding me? Really? They came with the wheel locks which I guess are a good thing but still.
Put 100 Miles on her the first day. Today I setup the remote app and spent 30 min looking out the 2nd floor window while I started the car, locked and unlocked it multiple times. Looking forward to a long relationship.

Default New Lexus ES 300h UL

After lurking on the forum for the last couple weeks, I finally made a decision. The lease on the my fully loaded 2016 Mercedes C300 is up in a few months and I haven't been happy with that car. I started a new job this year which requires more local travel, so I wanted something that gets better gas mileage, uses regular unleaded, and is more reliable.

Anyways, after looking at local inventory and not seeing the options I wanted, I decided to custom order. I just put a deposit to order a 2019 Lexus ES 300 Ultra Luxury. Configuration below:

Exterior:
MATADOR RED MICA
Interior:
FLAXEN SEMI-ANILINE LEATHER WITH LINEAR ESPRESSO WOOD TRIM
Options:
- NAVIGATION/MARK LEVINSON®* PREMIUM AUDIO PACKAGE
- BLIND SPOT MONITOR....WITH PANORAMIC VIEW MONITOR
- 18-INCH SPLIT-FIVE-SPOKE ALLOY NOISE-REDUCTION WHEELS
- 10.2-INCH HEAD-UP DISPLAY
- HEATED WOOD- AND LEATHER-TRIMMED STEERING WHEEL WITH WINDSHIELD WIPER DE-ICER AND FAST-RESPONSE INTERIOR HEATER
- WIRELESS CHARGER
- ALL WEATHER FLOOR MATS
- CARGO NET
- CARPET TRUNK MAT

Hello all I’ve owned a couple of ES’ prior (2nd gen, 3rd gen, 6th gen, 7th gen) this being my favorite and most controversial ES, I figured it would be a good time to join the community.

Beautiful car! It sure looks nice in the snow. but, alas, it looks so much better without the front license plate. I have left mine off here in Texas for the last 10 years and, luckily so far, no one seems to care.

Hi, hope I am in the correct part of the forums. I just bought a 2019 ES 350 F-sport. Atomic Silver with black interior. Obviously I think it is beautiful. I just sold my 2004 LS 430 Ultra Luxury. That was an incredibly reliable car. But as the years progress, I thought it was time to upgrade to all the new driver safety features.
Thanks

Wish I was that lucky. The area I live in the local & State PD love to pass out no front plate and tint tickets. It doesn't exclude meter maids too. Costs too much a month when the car is hard parked outside of permit offices every week.
