  Wind tunnel.... - 2000 Lexus ES 300
  By DKM - July 29 - 10:00 am

  The frameless windows seemed like a good idea at the time! The trade for the "sleek" look is a high-pitched hum coming through the window. Service manager says its standard; funny they didnt tell me BEFORE I bought the car. He even had all the window seals replaced, to no avail. This car is super, reliable, and fun to drive; and with the extended warranty, the service Lexus offers can not be beat. But, I wouldnt buy one of these pre-2002 ES 300s again as the wind- noise may just put me over the edge.

  Nice but not great! - 2000 Lexus ES 300
  By strofferazo - July 29 - 10:00 am

  I purchased a certified pre-owned 2000 with 33000 miles one month ago. This is my first "luxury" car after always having sports cars. Its a great car, but not without flaws...in my opinion, there is more wind noise than there should be in a car of this caliber (mostly noticeable on the highway or over 55 mph). The only other thing I dislike is the radio/speaker system - "Lexus Premium Sound" is pretty poor. VERY weak bass no matter how you adjust it. If you have an opportunity to get the upgraded Mark Levinson stereo, Id try it. I was also surprised I cant quite reach 30mpg, even on conservative all- highway trips.

  A great vehicle and extremely reliable.This vehicle is very quiet,looks like it belongs on the showroom floor. Very well maintained with all service records kept. The vehicle has been kept in a garage its entire life. One owner, has new high performance michelin tires on it. Has a sensational audio system.

  After 145,000 miles - 2000 Lexus ES 300
  By thomas - May 17 - 5:33 pm

  Bought my ES300 at 83,000 miles. No troubles, absolutely no troubles at all. Never been to the shop at all except for regular maintenance oil changes. At speeds above 75, wind noise gets appreciable higher through the window. The car has lots of pep only when floored. The tranny thinks for about a second before shifting and then the car flies. A very smooth ride and smooth steering. Absolutely disgusting cup holders. I have given up on the floor mat after numerous spills. There is a noticeable body roll during cornering at high speeds, but thats due to the soft suspension bug - again the ride is magnificently soft. If you are looking for a soft, plush, trouble free ride. This is not a sports car.

  best car ive owned - 2000 Lexus ES 300
  By mike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - February 21 - 1:23 pm

  The Lexus es300 is one of the best cars Ive owned. After 8 years I have had no problems with it. It drives smooth and is pretty fast. The seats are comfortable and its quiet and gets decent fuel economy. (I get about 19/24 mpg.)

  First Lexus - 2000 Lexus ES 300
  By BARB - December 20 - 2:00 am

  This car is a dream to drive. It handles the corners well. Pickup is great! I get the feeling that I am riding on a fast whoosh of air. The car is solid. I have driven a BMW 528 but my Lexus is much smoother in acceleration and turns. What a solid ride!!! Dealer service is honest and reliable. I love having a loaner Lexus to drive while I am having my oil changed.
