Okay, I know nothing about cars [except they have five wheels], but even I know not to put SOAP in the engine...LOL. :whistles:

Got our '96 ES300 for $2700--293k. Test drove, felt and sounded good. Looked over by two [highly recommended and reliable] mechanics--both gave it a "thumbs up".

Engine light came on, but after changing over gasoline hasn't been on since. Only issues some cracks and minor rips in front seats, CD Changer doesn't work [stuck],

fog lights didn't work [fixed--bulb replacement], low beams weren't bright enough [fixed--bulb replacement, but could be brighter IMO--projector dome appears

"heavily clouded"], display cluster has several lights out [just need to install replacement (LED) bulbs]. Nonetheless, it accelerates very well, rides smoooooth

and brakes better than other vehicles we have which have under 100k on them. Enjoying the ride so far.
