Buy the ES. Better car. Better interior. Better power delivery. Better ride quality. Better design.

See if you can get a 2010 ES instead.

Thank you,Really appreciate. With the Lexus ES350 have seen the rise in number of people who are reselling theirs. I begin to wonder if there is anything making people to sell theirs fast. Maybe there is something usually wrong with the model

good reputation = higher demand = more buyers = more sellers

the only ES 350 to avoid is the 07, some transmission TSBs, get the '10 as recommended above

Thanks. Seems Camry 2014 is no way close to Lexus ES2008 or ES2010 as no one is yet to advice on it either

The newer the better. If you can't get a more recent Lexus, buy the Camry. A 2008 Lexus can never be compared yo a 2014 Camry or do you suppose Toyota made no advances in technology on the Toyota, 6 years after the 08 Lexus was launched?

Have you been in both cars? Or have you seen the interior of the cars?

I have. And I still maintain that in this case, the newer model is better. 6 years makes a lot of difference

If it's Camry 2014 XLE V6, then go for it. It's more recent, wear and tear will be relatively lower. 12 versus 6 year cars.

In my experience, the model is plaqued with a nasty and unreliable dash that melts at will grin

No one wants this; it should be something you should take time to also research properly if you're inclined to this model and will be parking outside of a garage for the most time.

Why don't you consider the GS350? RWD, better interior (in my estimation) and way more power smiley

the 2014 Camry (v6) is a more modern car but the Lexus 2010 is a far better drive.

depends on what u want. I'll go for the 2014 Camry as a car dealer but I'll choose the 2010 Lexus as an end user.

Thank you. Have always see the dashboard as part of the issue related to the Lexus ES350. Have seen many broken dashboard of late. I have Toyota Avalon so have been used to the luxury life. Since I can’t afford the 2015 model of Avalon have thought Lexus will do

As a car dealer, how about the second hand value of Lexus. Am having the feelings that the second hand value of the Lexus in few years time might fall and it might later be like that of Honda (EOD) people are not going for any longer . Also Do you think with ruggedness, the Lexus can survive the Nigeria road. Am just thinking of something with good second hand valve after years of usage and will not also loss is relevance on the road and to people. Just like Camry 2006-2010 model they still rock and good second hand value

Is the Honda accord 2013 better than the lexus es350 2010?

Hmmm. That's a pretty interesting one. I'd personally go with the Accord; it's just a lot better than the Camry.

Re: Please Advice Either To Buy 2008 Lexus E350 Or Camry 2014 by nutripot: 7:58pm On May 17, 2020
The 2014 Camry is better- SOLID TRANSMISSION WITH NEW ENGINE(NO BURNING OF OIL ANYMORE). RIDE QUALITY IS AWESOME, ABOVE THE CAMRY HAS A BETTER FUEL ECONOMY THAN THE LEXUS.

This car you mentioned is one of the best car I have driven and intend to buy for myself but just to cost.

I have a friend who drives that car and it has sent him to the village. Initially the car was like an airplane. It has so many futuristic features you hardly see in other cars but once the madness start! Everyday visit to mechanic until one day the car dies. It just went off and refuse to on no matter what was done. Ogbeni run for your life.

The owner probably uses a bad mechanic. The GS350 is as reliable as normal Toyota/Lexus products.
How car go just die and mechanic go say nothing wey he fit do to am

Your friend was Kazeemed grin

That Lexus is one of the most bulletproof sedans ever made.

Its luxury and durability combination is hard to match on the road. Add tech and sports handling inspired by a super toquey engine and standard RWD, you've got a beast that can survive even the apocalypse.

Your friend, sadly, was the victim of the ignorance of his road side mechanic as he was of his failure to understand the limits of the folk grin grin
