The 2014 ES is the best ever produced...go for it! ...said the guy with a 2014 ES Ultra Luxury... =)
I read an article that the ES, specifically, holds its value about 50% over five years and 45% over seven years. So an ES with Luxury package would run mid-40's when new. But with low mileage, I suppose $24K is about right from a dealer. Also, with only 20K mileage, you'll get years out of the car. But $22K would be even better, huh!?

I don’t think it’s a UL, no seat cushion extender, no radar cruise, no panoramic roof, no Mark Levinson Sound. And has Chinese tires.

I stand corrected. Reading too quickly. Thx. Originally Posted by Mike728

I think all the 2014 ES 350s came with either Bridgestone or Michelin tires which should not be worn out at 20k. I wonder why these have been replaced? Have you seen a carfax or checked for dealer service on the Lexus owners site?
Check for the locking lug nut key, should be stored in spare tire cover in the trunk.

Point of reference, I just purchased a 2018 ES300h with 50k miles (yes I know a lot more) but it had Luxury, Bi-LED Headlights, Navigation with Levinson, Park Assist, etc for $25k. Original sticker of $49,689.

If it's a 2014, possibly with a 2013 build date, they may have changed the tires just due to age.
As far as the price, I think it's probably a little high, imho.

I ditched my OEM Bridgestone's at around 17k miles. They still had plenty of tread left. I wish I had done it sooner. Originally Posted by Nelexus88

These are strange times. I was offered $23,500 from Carvana back in August for my 2013 UL with 22k miles. Originally Posted by Littleguy

Just as an added more recent data point, I'm currently considering whether I really need, at this point, my 2017 ES. It is an UL car with virtually every option that was available in 2017. It has 22,000 miles on the odometer. It has been garage kept and has never been driven in the winter. It is in virtually brand new condition. I checked with Vroom, and their offer to buy the car is $25,640. That is a little less than what I'd be willing to let it go for.Originally Posted by Mike728

You should try Carvana. They were $4k more than the other offer I was given by KBB. Didn't try Vroom.Originally Posted by lesz

I did try Carvana, but they aren't buying and picking up cars in my area. Vroom seems to be the only ones who will buy and pick up a car in my area, and, traveling to deliver a car to another buyer would not be convenient for me.
However, after making my original post, I did go to the Carvana site to see what their offer would be if I was willing to deliver the car to them, and their offer was lower than that of Vroom.
