Lexus Es350

Do you want a sports coupe or a luxury sedan ?

These two are not competitors. Infinity does not over a car comparable to the ES anymore, the closest would be a G35x sedan. The Lexus most comparable to a G37 coupe would be the IS350.

I am trying to decide on buying my next car and completely confused among the options I have.
My observations are that Acura TL is little cheaper than others but not sure if I like the shape of its new model.
Both ES350 and G37 kind of have classy look, but great power.
BMW has a great style. But just 230HP when compared to others and not sure of maintenance costs.
Please share your comments and experience.

Check out the 335i (more power) and the 335d (diesel engine, so its reallly fuel efficient like a civic)

But, also check out the Lexus GS, i personally find the ES to be odd looking and a little outdated.

Go for the TL, really good tech on the inside.

Is there any way I can turn off the safety mode, so that I don’t have to stop the car when I need to look up something? Once the car is in motion, all the buttons become disabled, preventing even a passenger from looking up some information. Really annoying when my wife and I are on the highway and can’t even look up a POI. I know this is a safety feature, but I want to find out if there’s a way to turn it off.

That feature is extremely annoying. To my knowledge there is no way to bypass all those safety precautions. I would ask your local Lexus service adviser, he/she may have a solution or at least some sort of compromise. If you find out please let me know.

Help me decide between a new Lexus ES350, and a CPO Audi A6. I drive ~100 miles a day and I need a reliable, fairly fuel efficient car. Txs

For reliability and an everyday car>Lexus
For unreliability and a sexy ride>Audi

I would take the Audi and get rid of it when the warranty expires.
