1997 Lexus Es300 Base Sedan 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Arlington, Virginia, United States
1997 Lexus ES 300 Luxury Sedan, V6, 148k miles.
This is our personal vehicle that was primarily driven by my wife as her daily commute vehicle. The car has 148k miles on it (all actual), and can be inspected by prior appointment. I can be reached at (571) 399-5510 for any questions. It has served us well, and and am sad to see it go. It is a good car, and has very minor issues that are easy fixes, and will continue to serve the new owner well. I don't have the time or patience at present to get the issues fixed, thus selling it AS-IS. The car has had regular tune-ups, had its timing belt changed, brakes changed - basically, we have been particular in maintaining the vehicle and it shows. Some of its known issues are: 1. Loose strut or bushing on front passenger side, which makes a knock noise at times (when car goes over a bump). 2. Front Passenger side window switch is faulty on door, but operate-able from drivers door master window switch. Needs switch changed out only. 3. Check engine light does come on sometimes - had it checked, and it is most likely the front catalytic converter. Light if off at present. 4. Front passenger side turn signal gets loose at times (broken tab). I have been too lazy to fix it or switch out the turn signal. It works fine as-is. 5. Crack on rear drivers side turn signal. It is a cosmetic issue, and turn signal functions perfectly. 6. Side scratches on passenger side (car got side swiped against parking garage pillar) - cosmetic issue, which needs scratch paint touch up. Doors function perfectly. 7. Scratches and paint peeled off on rear bumper and side mirrors. I had touched them up with touch-up paint. Cosmetic issue, as no functionality is affected. 8. The Carfax/AutoCheck shows an odometer discrepancy, which is incorrect. It was a clerical error when the car was registered and I never went back and had the mileage corrected (I had guessed the mileage when registering the car, as the vehicle was in a different state, and I was in a rush to get the vehicle registered). 9. Windscreen has a small crack at the base of the drivers side (see photo). This does not impact the view and the car legally passed inspection in this state every year. In addition, there are 2 small starts which were minor chips that were fixed. They dont impact vision either, and I am only sharing for full disclosure purposes. 10. Minor rust around windscreen (top and drivers side edge). I have tried to fix this, but did a sloppy job. Does not impact functionality. I will give a 15 day warranty on the engine and transmission to put to rest any concerns the buyer may have. I trust this car to drive well and provide many years of great service to its new owner. Please remember that this is a 10+ year old car, and has been driven daily in the city, thus will have scratches and minor issues, but runs beautifully. We have performed regular oil changes, and other servicing. I had all its service records, but put them in some box when we moved, and I cant find them. You are welcome to have the car checked out. Over 80 photos are posted here: link Additionally, I can email the CarFax report to you if you want (it should be available for free on this listing also), but email me if you still want it. Some basic rules for this eBay sale: 1. If you have less than a rating of 10, I WILL delete your bid, unless you have contacted me beforehand and confirmed your contact info and intent to bid on this car. I've been around eBay many years to have experienced the frustrations of non-serious buyers. 2. This is a used car and I have posted more than 80 photos of the car, and have done my best to share all the facts. If you are going to be a super nit-picky buyer, please go to the local Lexus dealership and buy a pre-owned certified vehicle or a new vehicle; your hard earned $$$ will be well spent there. I honestly don't have the time to deal with buyers who are too afraid to buy a good deal on eBay or locally, and I don't have the time or the patience for someone to waste my and your own time. 3. You are welcome to look at the car in person in Arlington VA. I travel extensively for work, and thus you will NEED to work around my schedule, and not the other way around. I will return all calls within a 12 hour window, but don't expect me to answer on the first ring. 4. You are welcome to have the car inspected by a person of your choice at my location. I will entertain it being driven within a 3 mile radius, but no farther, as I don't have the time to baby sit every prospective buyer. The car is listed for sale locally, and I have the right to sell it before this auction ends. Feel free to make an offer on eBay also. 5. Good luck on your vehicle search and purchase! |

2013 Lexus ES300h
Wed, 27 Feb 2013The Lexus ES lineup, the brand's bread-and-butter sedan, has been completely redone for 2013. With that tip-to-tail rework comes the model's first hybrid. We think the ES350 is better in every way than its predecessor, so a spin in the ES300h is warranted to see what it's like to live with the model sure to become the best-selling Lexus hybrid sedan. In particular, we wanted to see how the gas-electric luxury cruiser handled the battery-sapping realities of winter, so we ventured out into the slush and snow to file this report.
Driving Notes:
Peel away the slush, and this car sure is sharp-looking. It strongly resembles the excellent new GS, no bad thing. With the move to the longer Toyota Avalon underpinnings, the ES300h is long and elegant. Lexus has really upped its styling game lately.
Lexus bringing new F model to Detroit
Wed, Dec 17 2014Lexus has taken aim squarely at the likes of Mercedes-AMG and BMW M GmbH with its F line of performance models like the old IS F and the new RC F – and now it's preparing to showcase another one at the upcoming Detroit Auto Show. There's little information to go on from the brief statement accompanying these two teaser images, but the Japanese automaker refers to its as "a track-ready" model. Could that mean a more extreme version of the RC F? Possibly, but the headlights are different – just like the units on the LF-C2 concept were different as well. It could just as easily be a concept for a new GS or LS sedan in F spec, even a reboot of the CT hybrid hatchback, or maybe a showcar of another nature altogether. Whatever it is, it looks enticing, what with the carbon fiber bits, low-profile rubber, lightweight alloys and oversized brakes. As for what form it'll take, we'll find out sooner or later, so watch this space. A Track-Ready Lexus Poised to Make Global Debut at 2015 NAIAS New Model Will Broaden the Lexus Brand's High Performance Showroom TORRANCE, Calif. – Dec. 17, 2014 – Lexus announced it will be adding a second vehicle to its growing stable of F brand high performance models. Earlier this year, the luxury manufacturer launched the RC F, a V8 powered performance coupe. The newest Lexus F brand vehicle will make its global premiere at the 2015 North American International Auto Show on Jan. 13.
Volvo S90 Recharge, Lexus RX 350 and spring beer picks | Autoblog Podcast #679
Fri, May 21 2021In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski. They start off discussing the Volvo S90 Recharge and wonder out loud why the brand's plug-in technology isn't also offered with a wagon body style. They then discuss the Lexus RX350 and why it's likely an ideal premium crossover for a large percentage of buyers. From there, Greg and Jeremy cover some recent news items, including the current state of BMW's coupes and rumors that Toyota's next Land Cruiser will lose its V8 engine in favor of a turbocharged V6. Then it's time to go over some of our current favorite spring beers before turning to the mailbag and spending some listener's money.
