My first lexus es300
I just recently purchased this 1997 lexus es300 for $2000. It runs good all the work was done on time and at the lexus dealer. Just wanted to show you all what I got and see what input you have on it...thanks

First things first, those wheels look massive. What is their diameter and what size tires are you using?
Secondly, you seem to have gotten a great deal. How many miles are on it? The driver seat looks a bit too dirty, I would recommend you buy a leather cleaning product called Leatherique. I used it on my car last summer and it worked wonders (there is a thread that I made specifically for it).
Also, I can see that some of your radio lights are not working. I can help you out if you're interested.
Finally, have you checked all your fluids, belts, filters, and hoses?
1. Coolant
2. Engine Oil/Filter
3. Automatic Transmission Fluid/Filter
4. Power Steering Fluid
5. Brake Fluid.
6. A/C and Power Steering Belts
7. Timing Belt (when was it lastly performed?)
8. Engine and Cabin Air Filters.
9. Three, yes three, Coolant Hoses - what is their condition like?
