- It's been so long but finally I bring the long awaited full walkaround tour of my "new car"!
This is my 2001 Lexus ES300! I picked it up in December of 2023 but never showed much of it. Im keeping the Subaru but this will be the new daily to help keep all my miles off of the Outback.
I plan on doing more to the Lexus so keep an eye out for new content!
Soon I will make tutorials and share more about some of the mods I have planned!
Hope y’all enjoy! 😊
calling this a "beater" is objectively insulting lol. This looks stunning for its age.
That's awesome dude, and that's the perfect price, I paid $5.7k for my 01 with 91k miles and so far no regrets, great beater for the daily.
This aint no beater, its beauty that was made to last.
568,000 miles on mine. 2001. 5 timing belts, 9 transmission fluid changes , amsoil oil changes and still runs like new. Update , tranmission blew up today. Sucks
Did you flush your transmission fluid in all those changes or drain and fill?
@@princevarughese6419 3 drain and fills each time. Drain and fill. Drive around a few minutes and repeat.
@@thebeddoctor4273 Thank you!
@@princevarughese6419 you're welcome
Holy shit man, is that even possible?
Quality of life improvements: a stereo with CarPlay/Android Auto. After that, ceramic window film/tint (SunTek brand). You can get a very light film (up to 80%) that will not reduce your visibility through the front or rear windshields. The reason for ceramic is to reduce heat from the sun coming through the windows.
I have ceramic tint on the Subaru and I love it. This one I might just leave as is because the AC works amazing, and it doesn't really bother me!
@@subaruserenity Fair point. There are also UV blocking benefits to protect your skin and the interior.
I need your battery sizes because someone put the wrong one and I can’t find the battery size anywhere
I wanted one since 1995...Finally got a 98 2yrs ago. My daughter hates it but I love mine. Decal reads "Lexus today because the ferrari is not reliable"😂 That's how you keep your money growing ...free financial tip.
Even if you work at a dealership I would never take a 20 year old car there. You can do everything they quoted you for half the price but sourcing your own part’s and paying a local mechanic you trust to install. Nice little ride though !
I'll be doing most of everything myself. I agree with you for sure. One of my good friends works with me and helps me out with things sometimes because I get a huge discount on parts and labor. Other than some of the big things, most of everything else I plan on doing myself.
The first-aid kit should have some velcro on the back of it. It's meant to be velcroed to the backside of the pass-thru so that if a passenger needs the kit, they can access it from the pass-thru.
Very nice looking ride . Looking @ one today for $ 4,000 in great shape.
Love the new lexus!! Planning to get myself a 05 maxima soon because of my obxts fuel mileage..
Also I'm planning to make youtube videos similar to you soon in the future! you've been a pretty good inspiration for me lol
Watch out for those transmissions on the Maxima. Otherwise, hopefully you find one that treats you well! Glad to be an inspiration too!
@@subaruserenity Yea the autos aren't exactly the best, but trying to get a manual lol
Would love to see more vids on this car, barely any of these great cars. I got the 99 white on silver and I love it always get compliments
Exterior looks way better than my 05 330. The interior the table turns just a bit IMO but both cars look great really.
I was looking into an OG Camry but now I'm leaning into the ES. Would you say the upkeep is a lot more between models? and is this a much better driving car? The entire car, especially the interior looks so much nicer.
Personally, I would recommend the ES especially if you plan on driving a lot. The creature comforts are much better than the Camry and the ES just feels like a nice step up in general. Both cars are similar upkeep wise I'd say. Make sure you do your oil changes and timing belt/water pump on time. Great cars otherwise and either one will last you a long time if cared for.
What year camry? This lexus isn't the best model.
@@hell5457 pre 2000
Oh there's a volume knob for the beeping thing. Interested in the camry radio swap ??????
I have a 2000 es great car just purchased it at the end of the year also it needs a cat that i can't find the one near the windshield. Nice car tho
i put 176,000 miles on my es 300 commuting… didn’t keep it but did trade for RX450h
I have a 2000 Lexus es 300 and it has 16000 miles and going strong and I paid $400
Beautiful but weak & old.
Not toyota's best.
