Hello! I just purchased a 2010 Peridot Mica (green) ES 350 and am absolutely in love. It replaces my similarly-colored Camry, which I had to pass down to my twin sons. Looking forward to seeing what I can learn here.
What type of things are you wanting to do with it?

God day members!
My name is Sergio, I live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and I have the hobby of buying cars and restoring it. Of course I keep the car with me at least for 8 years until I find a new one to have fun.
Recently I purchased a 2007 Lexus ES350 with 22312 miles on it. This car has a long history but had been parked in a garage for a long time and being used as a deposit of toys and tools. This car has a radio problem due the action of a theft that tried to take the radio of it. I will post the problem in a new post.
Well, here is the link of the car photos on the day it arrived at home. https://freeimage.host/i/HhIEvzG https://freeimage.host/i/HhIEebs https://freeimage.host/i/HhIEN5X https://freeimage.host/i/HhIEOen
Inside it was very dirty, covered with dust, now I have cleaned it, but there are some services I must do, as replacing the engine oil and filter.
Best regards for all,
Sergio

After a nice wash. This baby has a 165k on it and it still drives like new. Always serviced it at Lexus or myself if need be. I’m probably gonna mess around with it and see what can come out of it. Nice to meet y’all!

Previous car was a 2008 Infiniti G35X that died on the side of road at about 160,000.
Was looking high and low for a Camry or Accord, and was at a CarShop in Hatfield PA about to give up my search for anything decent when the rep said, "I have a crazy car here." I said, "What's crazy about it?" He siad, "Well, it's a 2011 Lexus with 12,000 miles on it."
I said, "I'd like to see this crazy car." He drove around to the front of the dealership and it looked like a brand new car. Maybe the Car Gods were smiling on me that day.
It's an amazing thing, truly, and I hope I can just keep in decent shape! This was definitely garage-kept and driven sparingly --- everything looks brand new on it. I feel pretty fortunate. Was not looking for a Lexus, but very happy with it.
When I took it to my mechanic for a pre-purchase inspection, he said afterwards. "We can't figure out where this car has been for 12 years -- no rust, corrosion, excessive wear ..."
Bought it about 4 weeks ago and reading up on the Forum (and the manual) to learn more. :-)
