Replying to: lexusnut (Apr 02, 2009 3:54 pm) when they bring the car for you to drive they have it running/warmed up. when this is done the tolerances have tightned and the noise is gone. when you have it at home and "cold start" it the car will have the noise. on my car it makes the noise for 1o or 12 minutes each time

#2694 of 2727 Floor Mats by bignate May 02, 2009 (12:38 pm)
Just took delivery of 2009 ES350 with Cashmere interior. I just assumed it would come with Cashmere carpeted floor mats to match the interior. Instead, the carpeted mats in the car are grey matching the dash. The dealer says Lexus stopped shipping Cashmere mats because they showed dirt far quicker than the darker mats (grey or black). Is that true or should I have gotten Cashmere mats? Replies to this message: stlgasman (May 05, 2009 10:29 am)

Replying to: bignate (May 02, 2009 12:38 pm) The dealer is correct.

Replying to: laeggo (Jan 01, 2008 9:05 pm) Hello,   I've just experienced brake failure with my 2007 ES350 about 4 hrs. ago...I was all shaken up...   I towed my car to the Lexus dealership and went home to google up to see if anyone has the same problem...   I was doing 40mph on a big street in Fountain Valley, California...gunned the car to pass another vehicle to get into freeway 405 going south...then I notice, it seems like suddenly the car has lost all power and no response...so I put my foot on the brake paddle to slow down...that's when I realized the brake paddle is literally "stuck" to the floor...no pressure at all...DEAD...I panicked, luckily I did not entered the freeway...I was still traveling fast and the thought of driving without brake scare the craps out of me, and I have my nephew with me on the passenger side...I pumped the parking brake, shifted the gear into N and P a couple of times real fast and back to D to slow the car down...I didn't want to mess up the transmission...I have been driving automatic for so long, I totally forgot about shifting the gear to lower to slow things down...I was able to slow the car down and ended up hitting the car in front of me lightly and bended my front license plate...   I was shaken when I get out of the car...I stopped about 50 yards to the next major intersection...the thought of having no break and crossing the intersection was still on my mind...   I towed my car to the closest Lexus dealer and ask if they have heard of this problem before...of course they said no...   This is my second Lexus...I droved an SC400 before...none mechanical problems ever...I have always consider the Lexus a very "safe" car to drive in...today, when I got out...I didn't want to get back into my ES350 again...   Do you know if you in-laws have the same issue...? I'm dying to find out what is the real problem...and what did the dealer fixed... Replies to this message: priggly (Jun 25, 2009 11:19 pm) ateeqahmad (Jun 26, 2009 8:59 am)

Does anyone know when 2010 Lexus ES350 will be dealer showroom for purchase? I would like to purchase a ES and don't know if I should wait for the 2010. Replies to this message: tikimaka (May 11, 2009 7:41 pm) philly2 (May 12, 2009 5:14 am) tikimaka (May 13, 2009 6:08 pm)

Replying to: philly2 (May 11, 2009 11:44 am) Why wait for 2010 ? Lexus is currently running low APR specials throughout May. The next redesign isn't due until 2012. I just bought an 09 ES 350 with Nav last month. Dealers are hurting right now -- here in So. Cal that is.   Awesome car ! Good luck.

Replying to: tikimaka (May 11, 2009 7:41 pm) Thanks for the information. I own a 2005 Lexus ES 330 and really like the car. Can you tell me what kind of deal you got? Replies to this message: tikimaka (May 13, 2009 6:08 pm)

Replying to: philly2 (May 12, 2009 5:14 am) I think $500 or $700 over invoice; i forgot? Brought a copy of Edmunds TMV and Kelly Blue Book print out for my trade in (97 ES 300), financed the car at 2.9% - 5 years through Lexus Financial. I wasn't going to play hardball as i wanted a fair price and for the dealer to make a reasonable profit.   The special interest rate may not be available in all areas so check the 'incentives' section in Edmunds and Lexus for your area.   I'm here in Los Angeles.
