I got in an accident with my ES...now what?
And dont have full coverage. It's still fine under the hood and drivable, but the front passenger tire is scraping on something over bumps and turns. The passenger door barely opens a few inches and the fender is dented bad. I just want to sell it as is and get something else. I like this car but I'm not putting $2,000 into getting it nice again. Ill be happy with $1000 for it.
So what else is a reliable, luxury car? I'm eyeballing the GS 400 and 430 right now...

I'm looking at es 350's right now. Gs or Ls is a little above my price range at this time. The es 350 looks really nice but I've never been inside one. Any opinions on them?

You might want to test drive an ES first and form your own valuations and opinions. You can also check out the ES Model section under Forums for tons of info and opinions. Personally, I enjoy the ride, comfort, styling, and reliability of my ES. Good luck on your purchase.

The roof line is very swoopy, which means a short window glass height, a high dashboard a limited visibility compared to the 4ES I had.
The ride is too smooth, rather isolated and bouncy, and it rolls a lot when you take a turn. I feel like that car could have had worn struts, so I'll be test driving a few other ES350's.
If you want a luxury car that's reasonable on gas, insurance and maintenance then its hard to beat a Lexus ES. The GS and LS have more proprietary components and use premium fuel which make it not as economical.
