Car leasing: the 2001 Lexus ES
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2001 Lexus ES for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. Buying the 2001 Lexus ES is a big decision; here is the information we have.
Before you sign for the ES
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA has 31 owner complaints on file, mostly about service brakes, vehicle speed control and power train. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
What the specs mean
The 3.0L 6-cylinder, paired with a 4-speed automatic, drives it. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Its combined rating is 11.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 35 litres for 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $18.29 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,350 a year for 15,000 miles.
Living with the ES
Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. For luggage, 368 litres means about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Who the ES suits
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Rent it for a week first
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent the ES for a week and see how it fits your life.
What it costs to run
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $18.29 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $182.90 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Year and trim
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Within the 2001 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
