Overview
2008 Lexus ES 350 Front angle medium view photo KBB Editors' Overview
Completely redesigned for 2007, the fifth-generation ES 350 grew in size and status, gaining more elegant styling, a larger, more powerful engine and better overall packaging. Although this front-drive four-door still shares basic platform engineering with Toyota's best-selling Camry, the midsize ES 350, on top of its premium Lexus pedigree, offers numerous additional refinements to complement its superior ride comfort and cabin isolation. While these comprehensive upgrades have helped maintain the ES 350's position as the volume leader of the Lexus sedans, the largely unchanged 2008 version continues to face tough challenges from a formidable field of international competitors, including the Acura TL, Audi A6, Cadillac CTS, Infiniti G35, Lincoln MKZ and Saab 9-5.
You'll Like This Car If... You May Not Like This Car If...
The ES 350 does an admirable job of defining the term "affordable luxury" as it applies to a premium midsize sedan. Offering a sophisticated driving environment, innovative design features, impressive build quality and well-proven Lexus dependability, its appeal remains strong to buyers seeking their own slice of the automotive good life. Some buyers may find that even with its more evocative sheetmetal, the ES 350's appearance still remains a bit too conservative for their tastes. Those who demand a rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive configuration should consider alternatives like the Audi A6, BMW 528i, Cadillac CTS, Infiniti G35 or the new Mercedes-Benz C350.
What's Significant about this Car?
Carrying over virtually intact from 2007, the ES 350 gets subtly revised exterior mirror housings and adds rear-seat reading lamps.
