I put close to 10k miles in 3 months on my 04 IS300. Which explains why I have 22,200 miles on my 8.5 month old IS300. This is strictly SoCal driving mostly and 3 trips to NorCal.

So far just clocked over 50,000 miles on my 01 ES & will shoot for a million or more before it's all said & done!

with only regular maintenance & on original engine & transmission.

My 96 ES just rolled over 111,000.

I dream of newer Lexus, Acura and BMWs but when while driving the ES I always think "why bother?"
Glad to see they last a long time.

We got a 99 just a few months ago from Dallas with 206,xxx miles, and it now has nearly 220 and runs like it's new. I've only changed the timing belt (with all rollers and water pump of course) and the oil. Nothing else but tires...

I've heard of others on another forum getting like 365k + .. That would be nice.

I just hit 379K miles this past weekend taking a trip to San Francisco. I just had the oil and oil filter changed right before the trip and my car was running smooth and efficient. I really love my car and she keeps on amazing me. I should hit 400K miles in 2010. I look forward to that...

I just bought my 2000 ES300 a month ago because the mileage on my 98 Prelude was starting to get up there. My Prelude's got 306,000 miles on her and she still looks and runs great (except she's burning oil). Original clutch too. I'm having a hard time letting go of her......
So I guess my ES300 is just getting broken in...she's now got 99,000 miles on her.
