  • Wow - 1996 Lexus ES 300
    By -

    I bought this car beacase my son liked it. This car is very reliable. I gave it to my wife and she isnt very big on maintenance. I would recommend this car to any young kid lookin for a cool reliable ride to sport around.

  • One good feature - 1996 Lexus ES 300
    By -

    My car is in really good condition, in spite of the mileage it had when I had intially bought it (over 100,000). Ive had some problems such as the presence of some burned rubber smell in the car when I turn up the heat, but other than that and a few other problems, Ive had had no real trouble with the car so far.

  • My Second Car - 1996 Lexus ES 300
    By -

    Ive had this car for a little over a year now, and havent had any major problems, but being a college student its starting to become hard to keep up with the $100 repairs. I had to change the cv boots, o2 sensors, rear shocks, and the CD changer quit working. It is a great car though, but Im going to try another Lexus model after this.

  • Smooth Blue - 1996 Lexus ES 300
    By -

    I found this car to be as smooth a ride as it is smooth looking. The engine is buttery to say the least. The dealer gave us new brakes when we bought it, with the 100K warranty. Sotps great, goes fast in ECT Power. Nice Cruise Control. More Bass in the Sound System would be nice. Sub woofer possibly? Seats are comfy with Leather, just wish they were heated. I wonder if anyone has had a situation where the chrome wheels leaked are due to rust? My dealer says this is a known Lexus problem of that year???

    I found everything about this vehicle to be supurb. An excellent value.

  • i love the car still - 1996 Lexus ES 300
    By -

    I bought this car used and but still love it. It was already five years old when i purchased it and have had no major problems with the exception of an oil leak on the rear main seal $ 800.00. The cup holder broke $450.00 if you can believe it and the antenna motor went out. Still, I love this car. Quiet, powerful and comfortable. Needs more bass in stereo. Paint is excellent and visibility is unmatched. Great colors also. Heated seats are great too.

  • OMG - 1996 Lexus ES 300
    By -

    My girlfriend bought this car with 100,000 miles on it and it now has about 130,000 miles and runs like a champ. Im pretty rough on cars/ Love to go fast/ and this car is awesome. Great on gas drives smooth and we never have any problems with it. The car is worth about 4 to 5 thousand and in saying that I dont think I would find a car like this good for the same price. Im shocked at how well it run seeing it is a 96 and has over 100,000 miles on it but I must say this car is super great, dont think we are getting rid of it until the wheels fall off. I would take this 96 lexus over these new 2010 american cars anyday.
