Lexus ES 350
We'd be fudging if we didn't say that the new Lexus ES 350 has almost pushed the ES class out of entry lux category. But that's entirely by design.
Lexus ES 350 ($35,175)
Standard equipment
power glass sunroof; power windows, mirrors, and door locks; dual-zone automatic climate control; eight-speaker AM/FM stereo with six-CD changer, satellite compatibility, and MP3/iPod input jack; ...
The Lexus ES 350 is the easy choice for non-enthusiasts; its cabin isn't too rich to be noticeable, the ride and handling aren't as numb as they used to be but are still forgettable, and the design's uninspired but innocuous.
The 2007 Lexus ES 350 comes as one model, but the buyer can opt for a huge range of equipment by selecting Premium, Premium Plus, Ultra Luxury, Pre-Collision, and Adaptive Cruise options packages.

As we mentioned in our model review of the Lexus ES 350, "For every person interested in a sport sedan, there are probably three luxury sedan buyers more interested in 'wood trim,' 'comfortable ride' and 'easy to drive.

"The world's fifth largest automaker, Hyundai -- yes, Hyundai -- sees its first rear-drive luxury car, the Genesis, as a worthy rival to the Lexus ES 350. And no one's laughing.
The first time you lay eyes on the LaCrosse, you brain registers Lexus ES 350. But this wouldn't be an entirely fair comparison, as the Lexus looks rather mundane sitting next to the LaCrosse.

To manage the additional weight, Lexus made the chassis of the RX more chiseled. The Lexus RX, Lexus ES 350, Toyota Camry, and Toyota Highlander are all built on the same platform with slight modifications between the sedans and the SUVs.
