Any chance of getting manuals from the dealer? They come in handy especially the one for the NAV and other functions interfaced with it.

They are available on line too.

Ahh, thanks. I left a message with the dealer, hopefully he can do something. I tried downloading one from Lexus, but I get the error message:
The brochure code could not be found. Please click here for Lexus Customer Assistance Center contact information.

So, I clicked here and left an email asking for some help. Hopefully, something comes on through.
Thanks again

Golden Almond Metallic / Tan (or whatever the name for it is)
Ultra Lux (Mark Levinson sound, Nav)

Previous ride: 1992 Lexus SC300 5-speed (still have it; it's for sale)

The second pic is more accurate on the color. I have no idea why my phone decided to take two pictures of two very different sizes, either.

Thankee. I'm loving it so far. Spent an absurd amount of time on Friday polishing the headlight enclosures to remove some of those rough freeway miles.

I'm so sorry. Congrats on going upscale.

Default My New ES 350

Picked up a CPO 2009 ES 350 with 18K miles in perfect condition. My 5th Lexus and probably my favorite so far. Absolutely love this car!

Smokey Granite
Every option available (Nav, Parking sensors, etc)
IS 350 Wheels
Previously drove BMW X5

Really want to put some lowering springs on it to close the gap on the 18's. I have read older threads on here but has anyone actually found springs or used the Camry springs for the ES?

Lexus ES 350 2007 Ruby Red with chrome package.
Bought in 2010 or 2009 i can't remember. It was Certified Pre-Owned. Totally mint and still is.

Best car I ever owned. Currently selling this car seeing I got a great deal on a 2007 ES 350 but Charcoal Black with less miles. I drive a lot of miles to work So i can rack up the mileage quick. I would of posted this sooner but just stumbled upon the site now.

Previous car was a Infinity i35

I just bought my first Lexus in May and I absolutely love it. It's a 2012 Lexus ES, with the Mica red exterior and parchment interior, matching the colors of my favorite college football team, the Oklahoma Sooners. I love the chrome wheels and all the comfort of the interior, including the heated and ventilated seats. My previous car was a 2006 Toyota Solara which I really enjoyed, but it was time for a change. Here's a picture of my car.I was going to post a picture, but I guess you can't attach from your hard drive. So, I'll just say it' a beautiful car. I'm also new to this forum and looking forward to reading more from other Lexus owners.

Update: I put Eibach springs on the ES. I will be updating with pictures soon. I used Camry springs.

Default First Lexus!

Just bought my first Lexus ~ Matador Red Mica 2009 ES 350 in mint condition with navigation package. I've had it for less than two weeks and now that I'm getting used to it, I love this car! The only question mark I've found so far is why the engine brakes so noticeably when you take your foot off the accelerator to keep your distance from other vehicles in normal city traffic.

I bought this to replace a 2001 Ford Explorer as I still have a 04' Nissan Quest and don't need two large gas guzzlers.
