The 2011 Lexus ES: before you buy
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2011 Lexus ES for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. For anyone shopping for the 2011 Lexus ES, here are the facts that matter.
A buyer's checks
There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Owners filed 199 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, electrical system and structure; have those parts checked.
What the figures tell you
Power comes from the 3.5L 6-cylinder, driving through a 6-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Rated at 10.8 L/100 km combined, it needs around 32 litres for a 300 km round trip. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $16.74. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
The ES in everyday use
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. At 425 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.
Good uses for the ES
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Drive it on your own roads
Drive the ES on your commute before you commit to it. Try the ES on your commute, then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Money matters
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.74 in fuel.
Year and trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
