Hey guys! I've been running around in a rather old Camry for quite a while and wanted to upgrade once I've saved up enough to just pay cash for it. Really wanting a Lexus but not sure what year to get... I'm not a fan of a ton of electronics if possible and not super crazy about the push button. Love the reliability though! What year would be best? 2012 is roughly the newest I can go in my price range with the eS350

ES350 has been known for reliability with high ratings. You wouldn't be wrong having a 2012 model; very fantastic!!!

Any year 2007-2012 Lexus ES is probably a good buy. I like Lexus because of the fact that they are fairly restrained in terms of electronics compared to the German luxury brands BMW, Audi, etc that just pile on iDrive and MMI and requires you go into the infotainment system to change the A/C settings. If you prefer usability, I recommend getting an US without Nav (you can upgrade to a better aftermarket unit) or push-button start. If cost is an issue, getting a higher mileage example may be a good way to save on cost (just make sure that the ES has been properly maintained)

All ES350 come standard with Push- Button start ignition.

If you are considering ES 2007 - 2012, look for 2010 -2012. There was a model refresh with slight styling changes and Bluetooth audio streaming from your phone in the 2010-2012.
