  Wonderful, reliable - 1996 Lexus ES 300
  By Marie - November 3 - 1:26 pm

  I have had my 1996 ES Lexus since it was brand new, summer of 1996. Now more than 10 yrs later and 93,000 miles on it, it still drives like a dream. We just took it on 3 long road trips, each trip was about 14-18 hours roundtrip, two of the trips were in 109 degree temps so AC was blasting, absolutely no problems whatsoever! To this day, I still get excellent mileage, 24-26 mpg mixed city and highway. On the way back from AZ to LA, I got 33 mpg, unbelievable. Kept up with oil changes every 5000 miles, other than that my only costs were tires, battery, brake pads, etc when they wore out, and the timing belt, etc at 90,000 because nothing ever went wrong! Reliable, reliable, reliable!

  By My Car - September 6 - 7:26 am

  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.

  Very excited - 1996 Lexus ES 300
  By 16 yr old lexus ownr - February 13 - 11:00 am

  Im a 16 year old and just got my license. My grandmother unfortunately just passed away. She had this car and I was lucky enough to be the one that would get it. The car drives amazingly... it will be 12 years old in October and has only 55,000 miles on it and Im very excited about it. The car has been no less than perfect for us. Low maintenance and great gas mileage.

  One good feature - 1996 Lexus ES 300
  By Raven00b - September 7 - 2:00 am

  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.

  Best Car Ive Ever Owned - 1996 Lexus ES 300
  By Johnboy - July 22 - 5:13 am

  I purchased my 96 ES as it was coming off a 3-year lease (with 35k miles on it) in early 99... 11 years and 70,000 miles later, it still purrs like the well-oiled machine it was intended to be. Ive always used premium unleaded gas in the car, and change the oil every 4,000 miles or so -- both of which are critical in extending the engines life. Except for replacement of an alternator and an antenna motor, regularly scheduled maintenance is the only other work thats been performed. In my 45 years of driving American, European and Japanese cars, nothing matches the satisfaction of owning a Lexus. This baby is only worth about $5,000 now, but what could replace it for that price? Nothing.

  my car - 1996 Lexus ES 300
  By chuck pelham - September 10 - 5:36 pm

  It`s just a fun car to drive, gas miles is great because I work 50 miles from home (1 way). Its fast, comfortable,& stereo sounds good. However the disc changer in the trunk works but it will not play. It shows error on the radio display.

  Cant find anything wrong! - 1996 Lexus ES 300
  By horstm3 - August 31 - 10:00 am

  I have about 90000 miles and the only thing this car has needed is one battery and a set of tires, besides oil and filter changes. No brakes even!
