I recently bought a 2011 ES350, and am trying to determine what packages it has, as I do not have the original sticker for the car. KBB lists a "preferred package" and an "ultra luxury package". While mine has the power shade, heated/vented seats, parking assist, navigation, hid lights, etc,etc, it does not have a panoramic roof, just a regular moon-roof. So my question is, is there a site I can type in my vin and get a copy of the build sheet or sticker? If not, where can I get an exact description of what was included in each package offered? Thanks, new to Lexus, love the car.

Curious ...is it CPO? May I ask the mileage and price if u would share? Thanks a bunch!

Don't know if this will give you what you're looking for but it's worth a try

Don't have a Lexus ES yet... That's why I was curious.

Yes it is cpo. I believe the dealer's price was $32,990, with 24K miles, silver. Told them mine and $22K as I traded my '06 DTS, so actual cost is always unclear, as I told them I was trading up front. It took a while, but they agreed. I normally think I am fairly good at dealing, but I think I may have paid about a grand too much, after negotiating, but I wanted the car, dealer was close for free washes and oil changes, so I did it. That is why I wanted to know what packages contain so I can price it on KBB and either satisfy my self or get p$#%%ED off. Oh well.

If you don't have the panoramic roof, you don't have the ultra luxury. Frankly, the panoramic roof is too much glass. You have a great vehicle!! Just my 2 cents.

The deal is done...too late to question the money. Enjoy your new ride!

When I was doing my research between the 2009 and the 2010 ES350 models, I still have some old PDFs. For the 2010+ versions, the trims are listed below with one or two key features that differentiate that trims:
1) Navigation Package - Navigation Screen with heated & ventilated seats
2) Executive Package - Navi Package + Wood-trimmed steering wheel and shift ****.
3) Premium with Navi - Navi Package + HIDs, power rear window shade, and parking sensors (little dots on your back bumpers and front corners on the front bumper)
4) Ultra Premium with Navi - Panoramic Glass roof (droolz), Mark Levinson 14 speaker system (i.e. includes tiny speakers near the back door handles), and the satellite trunk-mounted antenna.

Sounds like you have the Premium with Navi package, same as me.

Hope this helps.

Thanx liquidz- I must have the premium with navigation. But that is not a choice in any of the sites that give the car values. I think the dealers must have a say in the industry to keep us buyers in the dark.

Huh? How is this keeping you in the dark? KBB lists options, not each manufacturer's specific option package.

greenchile

try nadaguides.com as well to see if they list the packages

I do not believe the rear window shade came with option 3. At least my 2010 has everything you listed except the rear shade.

Interesting. The PDF I took this from was for 2012. So maybe they tweaked some features from 2010 to 2012 model years. I just assumed that after mid-cycle refresh that all 2010, 2011, and 2012 had the same features....

My 2010 had the rear shade but I don't remember if it came with a package or as a stand alone option. I don't have the car any longer or I'd look at the sticker.

If your 2011 has the panoramic sunroof (full black glass roof), you have an Ultra. If it as a power moonroof, you probably have the preferred equipment package. Majority of 2011 have the preferred equipment package.
