Compliments with your ES
I had a rewarding one this morning when I went to the Sunoco gas station near my workplace to fill up. The cashier walked outside and gave me the usual appreciative remark, "Nice ride". Then he asked me questions like the year of my car, the mileage, and the model year when the ES changed to the new style. I gave him the appropriate answers, and he told me that he really likes the style of my '01 ES better than the current one based on the sportiness and design cues. Seriously, this guy is the first person I've encountered saying that remark, and I felt sooo happy to hear that

A fellow ES owner talked to me the otherday. He complimented me on my cleared tails, and asked how to do them. I told him to check out CL.. I wonder if he's here?

i've gotten a few compliments over the years. i was at an autox watching my friend run his car and this bus driver who happened to be there said i had a sporty looking car and asked if i was going to enter it... i just smilled at him when i had the brake pads replaced at the shop, the mechanic thought the car was brand new but i told him it's about 5 years old and then asked me if i had the car repainted! i remember him saying "that's some fancy car" or something along the lines of that. when i had my mp3 unit installed at a car audio shop, the owner said, "that's a nice car." one time someone asked if the car was for sale and offered $12 grand for it.

I've gotten a lot of compliments on my modded es. A lot of people ask what it is and are surprised that its a 92 because they think its brand new. The first time I drove it with the body kit on a few older ladies walked by and one asked the other if it was that new lexus. Owning a lexus is a very rewarding experience.

Attendant on intercom: "Good evening pump 22, your pump is on and ready to go."

Attendant: "hey man, what kind of car is that? i have never seen one of those before! it looks really good!"
Me: "its a 1990 Lexus ES250."

I get them all the time. I think i mentioned on here one time about a guy at the Toyota dealership was petting it. LOL yes he was! One time when i was at Giant Eagle i was sitting in my car and this lady and her daughter was walking by and i heard the lady say to her daughter boy that is a really nice car and her daughter said well it is a Lexus mother! I laughed and then the mother came over (scared the crap out of me ) and said you have a really nice car then my daughter showed me that it was a Lexus and then i knew why it was so nice, but i do have to say that you have the nicest one i ever seen.
