While its siblings may offer more interesting textures, flavors and consistencies - a generally more exciting culinary experience - the four-door ES is designed with 'indistinct' as its middle name. Its objective is to please just about every entry-level luxury buyer once it ends up on their plate.<br /><br />Even after a complete redesign for the 2013 model year, the sixth-generation Lexus ES350 emerges every bit as family-friendly and non-polarizing as its predecessors. It is the everyman's luxury sedan, offering attractive pricing and a satisfying fill of amenities and features with the sweetness of a long warranty and polished customer service to back things up.<br /><br />As a result of its overall wholesomeness and demeanor, the ES350 sells like hotcakes, too. Last year, 56,158 customers took delivery, thus allowing the five-passenger sedan to continue its reign as the highest sales volume <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/lexus/">Lexus</a> passenger car (it outsells the bigger <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/lexus/ls/">LS</a> nearly seven-to-one).<br /><br />To learn more about the all-new ES, and take our own taste of its goodness, we recently spent a week with the midsize luxury sedan in Southern California.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/01/24/2013-lexus-es350-review/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>2013 Lexus ES350</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/01/24/2013-lexus-es350-review/">2013 Lexus ES350</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Thu, 24 Jan 2013 11:57:00 EST.

Just looks blah... The front end is too aggressive for the rest of the car.

It's Lexus's new corporate look. It doesn't really flow with the rest of the car, but it's a huge change for the ES. Very modern and bold looking.

The GS is the design that Lexus is proud over, damn good looker, too.
