Thinking of buying the 2009 Lexus ES?
No 2009 Lexus ES is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Here is what to know about the 2009 Lexus ES before buying one.
Before you sign for the ES
NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Under the hood
Its powertrain is the 3.5L 6-cylinder with 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.
Rated at 10.7 L/100 km combined, it needs around 32 litres for a 300 km round trip. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $18.72 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,750 a year for 15,000 miles.
Space, size and seats
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. For luggage, 425 litres means a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who the ES suits
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
A longer test drive
Rent the ES for a week and see how it fits your life. Drive the ES on your commute before you commit to it. Rent first, buy later: a week with the ES answers the big questions.
Money matters
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Year and trim
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Within the 2009 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Let us know
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
Rent it for a week before you buy
