Overview & Reviews
A new 3.0-liter V6 engine with VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing with intelligence) gives the 1999 ES 300 more horsepower, lower emissions and improved fuel economy. Optional Vehicle Skid Control (VSC) is available on the new ES as are one-touch open and close front windows and a one-touch operated moonroof.
- Though more distinctive than in previous years, it still looks a little too Camry-like.

Best car I ever owned - 1999 Lexus ES 300
By John H - April 28 - 5:43 amThis car cannot be beat! Has 148,000 miles without one mechanical problem. Did not have to replace fw brakes for 120,000 miles, like wise front struts--rw brakes and struts still good. I took a test drive in a 08 ES350, but decided there was no good reason to trade.

The oldies are goodies - 1999 Lexus ES 300
By hawaiitom - January 9 - 12:40 amWeve had this car for over ten years and use it as our second car for my wife to drive once or twice a week. Id buy a new es-300 in a minute, except the newer ones are an inch too long and have poor rear-quarter vision. Lexus is due out with a redesign of the es-300 in 2012. Hopefully, itll be better than the current model -- none of the redesigns look as good as our 1999. If you can find one, get it. Edmunds says dealer retail is under 6k -- good luck finding one so cheap!
