Default New ES 300 owner

Hi all,
Just purchased a 2002 ES 300, with 147k miles. 2 owner ( 1st was an older Vietnamese couple, 2nd a older Pakistani couple ) so car was very well taken care of. All service records since new.
I would like to upgrade the sound system to a modern version any suggestions would be appreciated.
Just completed a complete fluid flush of all systems including transmission. All major stuff had already been recently done including TB,WP, head gasket, plugs, coil packs etc.
Interior is 9, exterior has normal wear and tear, no door dings!

wow what a clean looking car. I would recommend not to do flush on transmission. The best is to do a drain n fill instead. Is safe for transmission.
How much did you pay for the car.

Thanks @imherenow , actually I did just the drain and flush with Toy Type IV fluid. Paid 5k after some back and forth with owner. Originally asked 6250. I have 6 other cars in my stable all pre 2005.
Looks like you have quite a collection also. BTW owner had 2 other Lexus as well. A 2021 GX and a 2019 RX,

As far as I know he is not selling, the car I purchased was really just an extra. My cars are different makes with the exception of the 2001 4 Runner, 04 Corolla. 1987 Porsche, 1972 Datsun 240Z, 2004 Acura TSX and a 2004 Mustang Conv. Not really selling any right now.
