Lexusfreak Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 No generation ES even remotely resembles a Taurus! :chairshot:
LexKid630 Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 No generation ES even remotely resembles a Taurus! :chairshot: ← how could someone say that!! LOL
YouDontKnowJack Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 mine is a 2003 es300. look at the body lines and overall shape compared to the ford.
chaplex Posted May 1, 2005 Posted May 1, 2005 I never say much of anything but I must disagree with you on that one jack - :chairshot:
NeiLtYmE Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 probably from folks that try to come up with any reason they can find to diss lexus. Mainly, honda lovers... or those who cant afford one, or have had bad experiences ... etc
Lexusfreak Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 mine is a 2003 es300.look at the body lines and overall shape compared to the ford. ← Not even close jack :chairshot: It begs the question however......if it looks like a Taurus in your eyes & it's bothering you so much, why did you buy the ES in the first place then?
LexKid630 Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 WTF <- does this mean what i think it means LOL my daughter just tought me that one... ..WTF, that looks nothing like a Taurus!! You can't EVEN compare..

I just thought it looked like a ford from the angle in that picture. the side door designs are just too similar.

SW03ES Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 The ES330 isnt any quicker. It is sluggish I agree, my only complaint.
NeiLtYmE Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 true, very little difference in acceleration. hmm.. i wonder why that is being that it is a larger engine by .3 L
SW03ES Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 The change in displacement was basically to help fuel economy, not acceleration.
LexKid630 Posted May 2, 2005 Posted May 2, 2005 I've drive both a 300 and 330; no difference in acceleration.
Lexusfreak Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 Intresting as there is a boost in both the horsepower & more importantly, the torque department.
Geo Posted May 3, 2005 Posted May 3, 2005 Is it just me or has Lexus still has not figured out how to make a attractive butt on those new cars ? I just don't like the rear ends on those things... Geo
steviej Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 Is it just me or has Lexus still has not figured out how to make a attractive butt on those new cars ? I just don't like the rear ends on those things...Geo ← line up a new Infinity, a BMW 5 series and a new Lexus. I think you will see that the tails are becoming very similar across the board.
YouDontKnowJack Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 no way! Lexus has one ugly butt, and it's on the new GS. it does not look luxurious at all. When i first saw JUST the rear end of the new GS, I thought it was a HYUNDAI!!!..... until I saw the L logo.... I'd say overall, lexus is going down on rear end design. The new IS350 rear looks ok though.

The majority of people agree. B)
bartkat Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 No generation ES even remotely resembles a Taurus! :chairshot: ← Right. All the new Lexus look more like Pontiacs.
bartkat Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 mine is a 2003 es300.look at the body lines and overall shape compared to the ford. ← Which one is the Ford?
LexKid630 Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 does anyone like the nissan altima's rear? The lights look too rx300 and old is300, no? except worse.
93LSOwner Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 mine is a 2003 es300.look at the body lines and overall shape compared to the ford. ← Which one is the Ford? ← The top one. That ES looks a gazillion times better.
93LSOwner Posted May 5, 2005 Posted May 5, 2005 I think comparing two cars is just ridiculous. BUT, Which one is the Lexus? Bottom or top *from a pervious topic, about the same pointless issue
