Thinking of buying the 2006 Lexus ES?

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2006 Lexus ES; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. This page puts the 2006 Lexus ES in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

What to check on the ES

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

Specs, explained

Under the hood: the 3.3L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

The combined figure, 11.2 L/100 km, means roughly 34 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $196. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,900 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Who rents the ES

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Space, size and seats

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. For luggage, 425 litres means a family's bags for a long weekend.

Try before you buy

Try the ES on your commute, then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.

Which one to look for

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

What it costs to run

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.

Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2006 Lexus ES from us first.
