Fellow ES300 owner here. You bought the best edition of the 3rd generation ES, congrats and enjoy it!
I've had 5 of these cars. I absolutely love them. They are dead reliable, super comfortable and great driving cars. In 99, they had the Coach edition with the Coach leather and special wheels which were only on the 99 Coach and they never used them again. Then in 2000, they had the Platinum Series which was a one year only. Then in 2001 for the final year, they had the Coach edition again and it had the same wheels from the platinum series. There was one option that most people never ordered and that's the Nakamichi sound system. It blows the standard pioneer out of the water. My 99 Coach had it, and my current platinum series has it. They are the only two I've ever seen with the nakamichi. That's a big reason I bought my platinum because it's such a rare car being a one year only platinum and nakamichi. The platinum package was over 3k dollars and the nakamichi was also over 3k dollars which is why a lot of people never ordered it with it. I also had a 98 with 451k miles original engine and trans, service records to the moon from the dealer and mostly highway. I had 2 2001s same color and both suffered from the dreaded knock sensor issue. The 451k mile car was back in 2016 and it's still on the road today. I believe all are still on the road. My dad donated the 99 Coach to his church and I don't know where it is now. For everyone who says this is a rebadged Camry...you're VERY wrong. There is hardly anything that's the same as a Camry and it's not the same chassis as well. They share a few parts but Lexus vehicles back in the day were made with quality and development and research and care.
Has that wood grain that all these rappers are singing about LMAO!!!
DaOldSchoolRapLova96 😂😂😂😂😂 was it just me or did he add some xtra white in his voice when he said that lmao
😂
I got the same car with 78,000 miles for 3,500, I nearly passed out when the old lady sold it to me
I agree with savysac. You got a really good price. I bought mine in 2013 with 93k miles on it for $7,000 incl. tax/fees. Year 2000 Platinum Edition with the Nakamichi sound. Prior to this one I had the same exact car/trim but with 126k miles (insurance ponied up $5,500 after declaring total loss)
I got a 01 black one had 78k miles & paid 8.5 think i got ripped off but i really like the car their the best.
The old lady was a neighbor, unfortunately she was dying and since I needed a car she sold it to me for what I had. I almost passed out haha such a great deal
Archangel760 how many miles do you have on it now ?
Lol I gotta 2001 w 98k miles for 3800.00, Same thing LOL Elderly woman (Moms friend) who was the only owner in perfect condition like this one. When they are clean like this it doesn’t look/feel like a 17/18 year old car at all
omg you are so calm. voice is kinda soothing. why are you so calm?
+Jay Dunbar
cause he drives a Lexus.
+Jay Dunbar I was literally thinking the same thing. Almost fell asleep watching this lmao
Is the peace that every owner of a Lexus reflect....
I watch this video like once a week. This and the 2006 LS430 are my favorite cars right now.
I have the LS430 and it is absolutely nice!!!
wat yall tripin the es 300 is a beautiful car to drive still have one ya don't kno what yall missing
Bro I have two identical 2001 Lexus es300 Coach Editions...
Probably one of best cars ever. I had a Camry like this car. I’m assuming Lexus is quieter
@@toyota420xp more luxurious and smoother ride ☝️
Absolutely. I've bought one two months ago and I love it.
I just bought a 00 es300 platinum edition in fr fr in love with it lmao its muhfuckin 2021
Best es300 review in youtube.
TheRostah thank you!
TechnologyMafia if you would ever want to sell it i am interested
He has a voice to keep people serene. He should have been a psychologist. Perfect, sleeping voice lol.
My mom had got the same one, but a 1997 2 years ago. With 200,000+miles for $2,000. And it still runs great still each time I drive it 👍
I just bought the 02 lexus es300 with 122000 miles(1 owner). quiet, smooth, and comfortable. Just owned it for 2 months and already want to keep it for 10 more years!!!
This was a very good review of this car. I've always wondered what differences this has with my 2001 Toyota Camry Gallery Series V6 with 111,000 miles. Obviously the Camry is a downgrade but I still wanted to know all the features this had in case I wanted to upgrade someday to this ;) and you did a good job showing them all. I am a nerd about my car lol
This video made me feel so relaxed! Very soothing!
I’m getting one of these as a Christmas present this Christmas. Very excited, first car.
Dude!, You need to keep this car because these cars are very reliable and they will last a long time!, and lexus are very good-looking and stylish cars!, I highly recommend a Lexus any time because of the liability and stylish look!
I have this car with 222000 miles still super quiet super smooth super reliable.
I had 3 of there I loved them all my father is moving away in 2 months so I will have a 2001 again yess love it
Beautiful car man. Treat her well and happy traveling!
@@kaohsiung99 why the hell do you care lol
just let him be
like fr whats wrong with him being nice to someone lol
That body style is the best looking ES of all time. Can you give a price range you paid for it?
Nostalgia is real... this was my childhood car 😭❤️
Super clean!!! For a 2001! Had one of these back in the days. Loved it, quiet and smooth. Excellent video.
i had one as commute car 70 miles round trip… let go of it @ 175k miles… comfortable and ultra reliable
Dude could read the phone book and I’m here for it.
Got my 98 es300 for $600 with 190.000 on it .i put $500 in it .man these cars are awesome.all i hear is hey .you wanna sell that lexus.iam like naww son..zoom zoom
How many miles now
just bought mines love it 194k just needed a coil that was it
Love the wood grain/finish. Miss this style of luxury. Not overloaded by gimmicky digital features and screens. Just simple, analogue aesthetics and feels. Would love for Lexus to re-release this interior just updated mechanics.
It couldn’t look better. Classic design
I bought one of these for 1100 dollars new Zealand, about a weeks wages, it still hits the top speed of 220 kph and regularly cruises at 140, I flushed out the Trans and put in about 12 litres of new atf the filter I was supplied with was wrong so I put it back together with no filter and man it goes good, that was 50,000 KS ago and is still going well.
I own newer Lexus ES cars, but like this style the most.
i know a guy who owns an avalon with same engine as that....his car has over 500k miles and still runs good
I bought same car six years ago with 40,000 miles on it. My wife uses it everyday and we have never had one issue with it other then changing the battery which is normal.
you discribed the ES as a camry with leather seats and lexus badges. that's what i tell ppl when they say "ooh a lexus" then i reply "its just a fully loaded camry" lol
I've got an es300, same year except grey on black. bulletproof engine and will last you 200k
What a clean car
i got a ride to work in one of those from my mechanic at the time, honestly I only remember that it felt like we werent even moving it was so comfortable. And it had a good strong engine in it going on the highway
I had a black 97 a green 2001 another silver 2001 loved them all never a problem just regular maintenance now my dad is leaving me hes2001 I’m exited
my mom has the same exact car. same year, color and the coach edition. its almost as good condition as yours
nice choice.. i too have Es300. i just love it. are you on Club Lexus forum?
I don’t care what no one says, that’s a good looking car
My first car lol
Got one back in 2010. 97' Es300. loved it.
Hey man vaciyo
+arash behi im planning to get one they look badass
I have one and I love it it ride smoother than a BMW
Great review!! I own a 97 and love it!! Just wondering why yours doesn't have heated seats? I've never seen one without them.
I love this Es300 i always enjoy driving my Lexus.... Best buy i made
These cars are tanks, such a smooth ride and cant beat the reliability, good purchase!
Welcome t body roll city! If you love tons of body roll get one of these!
WOW. Literally pristine inside!!!!!!!
looks brand new. damn. Nice car!
I have one of its siblings, 03 Avalon XLS with the same wheels, nice cars.
Years later ....still a beautiful machine.
Fantastic vehicles. Incredibly reliable. 210hp btw
Thanks for the review
One of the most well made and reliable car ever.
In the market for one. Awesome video couldn't have asked for more.
I bought the same car, not Coach, for $300 and fixed it for $150 in 2017, still drive it today coming up on 200K. Fyi those cupholders will break, and good luck finding replacements. And there's a CD changer in the glove box!
Gonna go look at one this weekend, clean exterior and interior 180k miles and the sellers asking $2200. Are these cars reliable? What are the known issues they have?
Nice ES300, I have the same year (and exterior color) as yours but with a different interior color.
If you guys didn't know, this has a toyota variant that's less luxurious and more sporty called the Toyota Prominent, has the same engine, but with Four wheel steering.
I Love this car I have a 1997 Lexus Es 300 & i just put a wood steering wheel on it & electronic shocks & the car ride smoother than most BMW infinity Audi & Acura
It is a smooth & relaxing car to drive I love it
very nice car man. really liked your presentation.
I found one for 3.9k with 143k milage. Is this a good deal??
There’s one for sale near me but they’re asking for $2500 and it has had the transmission replaced
That's some immaculate leather!
Can you save presets for driver’s seat position?
Really want this car love Lexus
Niiice!! Sweet ride, and they run very smooth! Picked up a 99 ES300 through CraigsList for $1,300 (deal)!! Love it!
You got a great deal! ....assuming you just changed the fluids after you purchased the vehicle.
Hi. I Also have the Same 2001 Lexus ES300 and I really like it. I have had it apx 7 months and now have a Flashing AC Light on. My AC was working Great then the Light came on and must me the Magnetic Clutch Relay gone bad. I Guess. 148,000 miles and put a New Timing Belt all New Coil Packs , Plugs etc . Was running good Until the AC Light coming on. Under Your hood the Fuse and Relay Box looks just like mine. I pray it is Only the MG-CLT Relay is All I will Need. The Relay Cover shows the Relay 1st in the Back Line with MG-CLT on the inside cover. Do you know anything about that AC Clutch Relay ? Thank you Tom
I'm going to look at one this week. 175000 miles. Good condition no mechanical issue or check engine lig gt. Seller wants $2300. Is that a good deal? And whats the gas mileage on these?
This car is amazing
Looks mint, wow!!! How did you find it?
My father had this car and sold it 240,000 miles I don’t know why cause it’s was running fine. Sadly I couldn’t inherit it as I was only 15 when got rid of it.
Car is clean🎯
Great cars
its very similar to my 300m. Even the cupholders suck.
I have the 99 Toyota Avalon xls. Basically like the lexus es300 but toyota rebadged. Only difference my engine is loud and aggressive. Also sounds like a manual even tho it’s automatic. Everything you said is just the same as my avalon. It could be a good sleeper car if you do work on it.
If I didn't know any better, I'd think i was watching Nick Hexum of 311 talking about his es! Lol
Very clean car
Got a 97 lexus looks the same just more luxurious wonder if i can ad that sterring wheel on mine
Looks awsome!
u still have the ES?
Thank you for the video. Pls I have one of these car, it's a 1997 full option but the previous user used it very badly, the engine is loud like the the idle rpm is high, it consumes fuel and the AC works continuously without breaking because the wiring has obviously been tampered with. How can you be of help? Also I need you to help me with the complete wiring blueprint of this car so I can use it to correct mine. Thank you
Where’s the antenna? I bought one and my AM/FM is not working
Great review of the car. I'm thinking of buying one. Anything to watch out for in particular? How are the suspensions? Do they need to be replaced regularly? Are they expensive to replace?
my grandmother has one. I'm not aware of any major problems but my grandmother's has this squeaky steering wheel problem but has to do with where the steering shaft comes into the floor. You can temporarily quiet down with some silicone greaseczcams.com/video/cLpDkwJ_rAE/video.html
Is the sound quality of the speakers any good?
They sound nice but half of mine didn't work when I bought it sadly
Mine work excellent
My 2001 Avalon had the same exact V6 engine
I love this car es300 Lexus 2000
nice pickup!
Have one like yours..same color too. I have to replace my cup holders any suggestions?
Very nice car
i like it. shame that es wasn't popular in europe
I need help figuring out what’s wrong with my car we have the same make and model
How are you liking the es300? Still have it? Did you have any issues with it?
I want to Lexus ES300 2001 please how can I get am in nageria
My 99 Camry is super quiet and very quick
Is it a good idea to buy one of these now with 200k miles on it?
What kind of fuel do you use??
Bill Lumbergh Office space you sound like
Ahhh yes. Back when a Lexus was a LEXUS.
Are these reliable?
Hi. I would like to know about the transmission. Is it smooth? Whats RPM is it on about 60mph? The car is noisy at this speed?
Leonardo Ribeiro the transmission is very smooth. 60mph is at 2300rpm or so, the gears are very long. This is one of the quietest cars i have ever owned.
It look like me woulda abuze dis car driving it speed of sound/light
Wow, best review of my car yet. I have a question, do you think it's hard on the engine to keep overdrive on at all times?
+BigMikeSmoovee Actually,,it's hard on the engine if you don't keep it on all the time..OVERdrive function is to keep the Rev down when you're in no need to haul ass...
+Bruce Truong Ahh gotcha, so when I need to haul ass turn it off then?
+BigMikeSmoovee
Pushing that button turns overdrive off. It's good if you're going up a hill while doing about 45-60mph and you don't want the trans to shift back and forth.
+MikeDunn Wow thanks man. You're honestly the biggest help I've got on this. I appreciate it.
BigMikeSmoovee
Sure thing, but the funny part is that someone in a V6 Lexus, Camry, etc. might not find it necessary to use it often. However, it comes in handy for me with my little 2002 Corolla.
Does this VVTi engine have a lot of valve lifter noise?
I'm wondering if this is common or if my 2000 ES300 needs a valve adjustment or something else.
Thanks for the video.
I've never had any issues with the valve lifter in mine. Try using synthetic oil next time and see if the problem persists. Otherwise, a valve adjustment will be needed.
