Hi Im a noob here, I plan on buying a ES300 between 97-01 that bodystyle. I only have about $8k to spend and have always like that car, so I know with that limitation on money Im looking at one that will have 100k miles or more. My questions are, when I go to look to buy one of these what should I look for? What are these car know to have flaws in? and how much are mainanace costs on these? Are they expensive to maintain? I would assume that they are fairly reliable like a Camry or something.

I plan to only lower the car with shocks and springs or coilovers later on. And tint the car. Also it will be a sound competition car later on also.

Agreed......do a search & try to get the newest ES you can find in your price range. Get all service records, especially oil changes! Good luck.
