The 1991 Lexus ES for buyers

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 1991 Lexus ES for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. For anyone shopping for the 1991 Lexus ES, here are the facts that matter.

A buyer's checks

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 13 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, latches/locks/linkages and power train; have those parts checked.

The figures, translated

It runs the 2.5L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

The EPA rates it at 12.4 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 37 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $192.20 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Size and space

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. The EPA measures its luggage space at 368 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Good uses for the ES

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.

Try before you buy

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the ES for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.22 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Year and trim

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

Next step

Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
