rjt65 Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Just wondering how many people have their new 350's garaged versus in the driveway or street? Mine is out all the time, I am in the midst of cleaning up the garage to get it in there. cheers all
Lexusfreak Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Both my previous ES 300 & my current ES 330....always garage kept. :)
AZ08LexusES Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Mine is garaged when I am home, which means that during the worst part of the day, it is out in the scorching sun or exposed to hail, rain, snow, tree and bird droppings and all other awful elemements.
BaddBoi70 Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 Luckily, my 350 is garaged at all times (home and work), unless I run out to lunch or to the store for something. The Denver sun wreaks havoc on the interior as well as the exterior of your car
saabkyle04 Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 My ES350 has been mostly outside for the past 2 semesters during my freshman year at college, except when I go home, then it is in the garage. now that summer vacation is here it is garage kept. I periodically waxed my windows to prevent acid rain buildup and waxed it once every month or so. you can't tell whatsoever that it has even been outside :P I take extremely good care of it :D
atomicjade Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 I keep mine outside, but not by choice. When I move it will definitely be somewhere with a garage just for this purpose! However I do cover it.

Parked outside when I'm at the office. The office is next to a very busy highway and an amazing amount of dust / dirt blankets the car in a single day.
rjt65 Posted May 10, 2008 Author Posted May 10, 2008 Interesting ..never thought of waxing the windows. What type wax are you using? Carnuba? I just waxed my wheel rims for the first time to help prevent brake dust sticking on. cheers quote name='saabkyle04' date='May 9 2008, 07:37 PM' post='307291'] My ES350 has been mostly outside for the past 2 semesters during my freshman year at college, except when I go home, then it is in the garage. now that summer vacation is here it is garage kept.

SW03ES Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 My car is garaged at home and at work, but I do a lot of driving around during the day and parking different places outside.
rmw00/08es Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 Glad to be moving to a new place in VA with double garage and a seperate building that will be perfect for detailing. My ES's will now be garaged year round as thay get that in FL when there a quarter of the year. New place will be awesome!!!
GrantS Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 Garaged at home. Sometimes I'll leave it outside for about an hour so the engine cools down before bringing it inside. Outside at work, but rear shade always up (to protect the speakers) and front shade in place if parked in the sun. I try to park in the shade (I live in Florida where the sun in the summer is brutal), but not directly under a tree. (birds)

As of now I still work from home so I am really missing the pollen and rain! :cheers: Garaged at both the office and the house (Gold 2005 LS430). If only I could avoid the construction detritus around here! (several nails have found there way into the tires...)
gni2002 Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Definitely garaged along with my 98 ES300. Just bought IS 350 a month ago. Barely drove with 250 miles..
raymsixsix Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 If I had a garage, my old '95 LS would be in there!
