Pics coming soon. I have windows stripped ready for tint. Gonna try Platinum plus 18% front and 35% on factory rear(Think it'll be a close match?)
I'm digging that grill, Kuch123, and those wheels off the rx330?

I'm at 242,000 miles now, mpg hasn't changed much over the years. I actually hit my record mpg of 26.0 mpg at 227,000 miles. City mpg is still around 17 mpg in the winter, and is regularly 18 in the summer.

How do you manage to get that high mpg? I drive mostly in the city with several stop and go on my 2002 rx 300, Europe model and average only 11mpg. It can climb to 16mpg when I drive in the highway for about 200km.

What could be wrong with my car?

Driving style has a lot to do with it. There are plenty of threads here that talk about potential mechanical issues that can lead to low mpg. I'd suggest starting with the basics, tire pressure, brakes dragging, etc. But, don't want to make this thread go off topic!

Still kicking since 2001! Little over 170k on the clock now. Tranny swap at 70k compliments of Lexus. Typical door lock and vent servo issues.

My Baby Girl named Solace! 2003, 130k miles, never failed me. Impresses me every time we go out. I did the wheels, grille, and backs of the mirrors black myself! Not sure if the grille is done in that last pic, but it is in the others.
