ES300 Year Build Dates?
I was reading a thread in the GS forums, and got me thinking the same. The ES says it was built in 93 I believe, but when you look at the original user manual and certificates of delivery it says it was purchased new in early 1996. So what does this mean. I have always been a bit confused with this, as that is a 3 year gap between build and purchase?

I don't have one in the drivers door. I know it should say on the VIN etc, but what I find odd is that it was bought new in 96? I can't see the car sitting around for 3 years doing nothing.
P.S.
I keep seeing your sig, and wanted to say, I can count :P

He's correctamundo on both points, which leads me to the question, "What was your intended question, ParkerGen?" and a follow-up question of "Why are you (seemingly) suddenly selling your gorgeous ES?" We'll miss the ParkerGen if he's not hanging out with the ES and/or CL bros anymore...

And I'm wanting to buy a new Lexus (as I've had my eye on a certain model lately unless I change my mind at some stage), that's why I'm selling. As they manufacture good quality vehicles, as I have noticed with the ES at it's age, drives very nicely. Compare them to lots of other cars, especially of the same age and they are way ahead in quality and build.

Yes, in NA we just enter the VIN at http://www.carfax.com/ and that will give the year.
Not sure if this will work in OZ.
