My family has a 97 ES 300 that is soon going to become my car. It is in great condition overall but you can deffinatly tell that the car doesn't work like it used to. We are planning to put a couple grand into it and I was wondering if any of you veterans could tell me what I need to do. I heard that new battery and wiring will make it start better. I guess that is a good start. The brakes are not working incredibly well and are making a good deal of noise. There are some asthetic flaws in the interior. The radio display has some "bleeding" there are numbers showing through. On top of that the radio does not work at all, it seems as if there is no antenna. I would appreciate your help greatly, the car only has 70 thousand miles on it and I strongly believe that it is good for another 100,000 more.
