Mileage on Es300s
#16
Moderator
The first generation GS is alright. It's a little underpowered but that inline 6 engine is a great engine. It's very solid. I rarely drive my GS. I want to keep the miles low which currently is a little over 90,000 miles...

if our '90 es250 counts...
168k on the car
~140k on the engine and trans
new struts, springs, boots, etc.
new rack.
major maintenance work on engine (water pump, oil pump, vcg's, rear main, cam seals, crank seal, etc) doesn't leak a drop
major seal work on trans (axle seals, etc) doesn't leak a drop
new battery.
new front brake pads/turned the rotors.
flushed brakes, it needed it bad.
needs a rear trans mount and rack bushings.
radiator was crap, took the recently replaced one from the camry.
a/c condenser needs to be swapped too.
i'm sure i'm missing something. but for a car this age, can't complain.

Low Mileage 94
I purchased my 94 in June and just turned 60,000 this weekend. Looks good and I hope to have it for many years and miles. Is there any danger in letting the original timing belt go a few thousand more miles?

Plus it's a non-interference engine. No damage if it does break.
