Default Pics After Winter Wash!!!
I washed all the salt and crap off my 2001 ES300 and took some fresh pics. What do you guys think?

OMG you stole my dad's car! Haha, jk. But you have the exact same car. Same paint, wheels, OEM HIDs and everything. It is strange seeing our ESs twin. But ours is a 2000.

Anyway nice ES300 you have there. Very clean. Use some tire shine! I always use it on my car.

No point yet. Unless you want to purposely get dust/remaing winter crap on the roads, onto your sidewall.

I cleaned mine up this week, but not as extensive as above!

Yeah I guess it really depends on where you live. We didn't have any snow in Seattle this year so the roads were always clean. I even kept my car clean in the winter because we have had a really warm winter here.

Since when did the ES300s have perforated leather? Ours was made in June of 2000 and it doesn't have this. This might of been only for the 2001s.

Chrome door handles too on the inside. Wow. It looks like Lexus made some changes from 2000 to 2001. I love that perforated leather! Even the center console compartment lid is a little different. Very ES330ish. Interesting...

Nice ES!

Thanks! Keep in mind mine is a "Coach Edition" not a "Platinum Edition"....maybe that has somethng to do with the differences?

only the 2001 coach edition had perforated leather seats. the 2000 platinum series had a texture to it as well. the regular edition cars had flat leather.
