Sometimes, buying the perfect car for you requires a lot of time to visit dealers and check out every car on the lot, precious time which you might not actually have to spare in your busy schedule.
We think videos like this one are absolutely great for that precise reason. From the comfort of your living room, you can check out all the finer details on the 2013 Lexus ES 350 luxury sedan. There's no salesman hovering over your shoulder or wife next to you telling you that you don't need a Lexus, which means you're free to enjoy.

And there's a lot of things to take in and enjoy on the brand new Lexus ES 350. A close relative of the Toyota Avalon, this has all the right luxury features. They’ve made it sportier and also roomier inside, with rear legroom growing by a massive 4 inches (10 cm).

The standard ES 350 comes with a 3.5-liter V6 with VVT-I which delivers 268 hp and is mated to a six-speed automatic. This engine makes a very nice, very honest sound which we very much like. There's also the 300h which uses an Atkinson cycle 2.5-liter and an electric motor.

The car tested by Subaru WRX Fan has cream seats with a black dash and dark wood trim. Another nice touch is the fact that it's been finished in Fire Agate Pearl, a very deep shade of brown that's very retro and classical.

After watching this 24-minute walkaround, you should have a very clear idea about the car, the colors and the trim that you want. All that's left now is to convince the wife to upgrade from the Camry!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
