Hello everyone, Clark here...

I purchased a 2004 ES330 this time last year and have loved it since. Millennium Silver Metallic exterior and some sort of grey shale interior. I immediately (within the week) had statewide legal tint applied and have learned to love the dark to light contrast of the look. Over the stagnant winter I have become bored with the entry level luxury interior and its gloriously smooth ride and see it necessary to now make some changes.





Jumping straight in to some changes, I notice that my DRL and Fog lights are a different color than the headlamps... Does anyone know which value of the spectrum my headlamps run at so I can find matching others?

97 ES300 with 119,400 miles on it. No rust, one owner car. I bought it for $2k. I did the valve cover gasket, spark plugs and now it's no longer leaking oil

I bought it to daily drive, so far I love it. It has a very nice ride. I have been driving my 94 Miata with bucket seat, coilovers and a few other goodies. But the stiff ride and bucket seat was making my back ache, specially for commuting. The miata is now my track/autocross only vehicle

Next is WP, TB, and front seals.

Welcome aboard Mike. I grew up in Michigan and move to California over 30 years ago, but lots of family there. I have had the same car for about a year now and love it. Lots to learn on this forum. Enjoy...looking forward to some pictures.
Mike

1992 ES 300, pearl white with camel leather interior, moon roof.
Was my Dad's. Inherited with 15,000 miles on it. Unfortunately, because my dad had upgraded
The CD player, it wouldn't meet historical plate protocols. Ah well...
Since then, I passed it to our 21 year old, who had the car tinted, films put on taillights & bottom trim. Ugh.

Just purchased my first Lexus; a 2000 ES 300; which although they are common here in my area - I had a long search to find the right one; and ended up finding it in Seattle. All stock for now...

Greetings! My very first post. I was gifted a 1997 Lexus ES300 over the weekend. It has 202K miles, and runs perfectly. It was owned my my uncle who no longer needed it, and didn't want to put the effort to selling it. I flew out to the East Coast on Sunday, picked it up and drove it back home to Indiana. I hope to put another 100K miles on it.

First thing I want to do is to replace the factory stereo with an aftermarket head unit. Hope to do this in the next two weeks.
