Used 1992 Lexus ES 300 Consumer Reviews
good deal
I purchased the car for only $6,000 with low miles. What an exceptional car? It drives smoothly, handles the road well, and it hugs you just like it was meant for you!
Awesome Car!
This is now the second used car that I have purchased. My first car was a Mazda, and within the first year of driving it, I had spent over $2000 CDN in repairs! The ES300 on the other hand has not given me any major problems at all for the year that I have owned it. All that I have had to fix was a leak in the exhaust ($50) and a dead battery ($60). This vehicle has the same engine as the Camry of the same year, so repairs should not be too expensive and used parts should be easy to come by. Overall, it is an awesome car!
My ES300
Bought this car at 60000 miles "as new" from a friend who had kept it in cotton wool - washed at dealer's every week; detailed several times a year, timing belt just done, etc etc. Great car, reliable, quiet and comfortable. Nothing gone wrong since except an oil leak from where the filter fits which created smoke and nasty smells. Easily and cheaply fixed.
ES300 PURSUIT OF PERFECTION
excellent vehicle. highly recommended! probably the best used car you could buy.
quick notes
owned from 90k to 140k 1997 to april '04, sold today for $4450 but wanted to pay homage. catal converter failed last year. replaced motor mounts to pass inspection for sale. pwr antenna broke at 100k and one window had to be reset in track last yr.. otherwise all maintenance has been routine. best car i ever owned!
Excellent car!
This is my second used Lexus vehicle. This one has 140,000+ miles and is perfect! No complaints at all!
228,500+ miles and still going
I gambled on Toyota's reliability when I bought this car with 192,000 miles on it. Now my ES 300 has 228,500 miles on it and it still runs well.
Great Used Car
Bought privately at 56,000 miles from a neighbour who had looked after it well from new and had it detailed every six months or so. Black with black leather. Given great service and performance ever since. Completely reliable, with regular oil changes. Brake fluid leaking a little, but stopped with sealant. Instrument lights weak but I can live with that. 28 MPG (USG) on longer trips. Replaced the radio antenna(my fault) twice for $50 each. My Legend cost me $150 for the same thing.
Lexus proves itself with the '92 ES300!
Excellent vehicle, the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned and my ES has close to 200,000 miles! I'd quickly buy another even with over 100,000 miles. Maybe 150,000 miles!
Awesome ride
So far so good, no major problems, upper motor mount broke, but only $60 for the part and easy to replace. Get free loaner cars from the dealership when in for service... very nice.
