What an awsome veicle
I love this car. The best auto I have ever owned. This is not a car it's a machine. If you can afford one-buy it.
Reliable and Luxurious
I'm a teenager who just recieved their license. I kept bugging my parents about getting a 1993 Mercedes 190-E 2.6 as a third car that I could drive. We looked at some, but we thought that they looked too old for the model year and lacked great performance. Then, when a family member was selling their 1993 Lexus ES 300, we knew we were in luck. While this is Lexus's base model which is based on the Toyota Camry, the car is more luxurious and came fully loaded w/ power everything as well as leather, premium stereo, moon roof, phone in front armrest, premium wheels, and ABS. Also the 3.0 L 185 hp. V-6 engine is impressive.

What a car!
After having transmission problems on my 1985 Mazda 626 LX, I purchased my 1993 Lexus ES300. Excellent car for the price. had 132k when I bought it. Now has 164k+. Nothing major has needed to be replaced. I burnt out the alternator with a subwoofer, but that was a dumb on my part. Long lasting parts, and a smooth, comfortable ride.
Luxury & Reliability all in one!!
I've been driving my ES 300 for almost 4 yrs without any problems. At the time I purchased one, I was a single mom who wanted a car to depend on. Not only was the price right but the extended warranty and excellent service that I recieve from the Lexus dealer is unsurppased.The ride is sporty with a high end car feel. The interior is the same. When you drive this you sure are a head turner. This model also offers superior craftsmanship the has definitly decreased with new models of cars that are coming out. Even as the car ages, their are no mechanical problems that one might expect with a 10 year old car. One regular maintance is required.
Lexus Quality?
I purchased this car because of the Lexus reputation for quality. In the year I have owned it: - I had water in the headlight due to a bad seal - The power antenna stopped working. - The hood doesn't stay open. - The side window just dropped into the door one rainy day. - I have an idiot light that flickers on and off. Nitpick - You can't fit an aftermarket stereo in it without cheesy looking adapters. The factory CD player is $1500. Please. It's cheaper to manufacture a CD player; put the better, cheaper solution in EVERY car. Certainly no major problems, but enough little things to question the Lexus reputation...
