Good day my good people.

Please someone is showing me an RX300 for sale. He claimed that the model is 2001 model but I have a little doubt on that. Please help me verify this model and if possible educate me on the difference between the models. Im confused on the difference. My mind is telling me that it could be 98/99 model whose back light was changed. Pls help out -- Sienna and other gurus.

It's a 2001 model.
The rear lights of the 01-02-03 models are very sharp and brighter .
But the 98-99 models have a dull rear light ,
That's the difference I can notice

dont tell me you do not know that those lights, grill and so on can be changed.

I know that
Just the way an 06 range rover sport body can be upgraded to a 2012 auto biography
The way the grill and rear lights of an 07 camry can be changed to a 2011.
I only gave him a tip to identify a stock 01,02,03 Rx330

in that sense, i should be wary because it might not be the model he claimed it is.

It's not common in the Rx300 series to change the lights because it doesn't change the price worth , all of them are priced the same.

* 2001/2003 do come with VSC ( Vehicle stability control) wish I didn't see the sign on the parded

My friend, this is clearly a 98-2000 model with the back lights changed

1. The steering of the 01-03 models is Formica wrapped

2. The gear level of the 01-03 models is also formica wrapped.

3. These are the front headlamps of the 98 model, the 01-03 model headlamps are a bit different

Its either the dealer is trying to b smart with u or he's ignorant, but I suspect the former.

Thanks my brother, my intuition could be right. Im suspecting its a 98 model.

@Nijac or anyone that can help out, please can u help me through pictures to understand where the VSC is located on the interior of RX300 and furthermore show me how the interiors of the different models of the RX300 (98,99,2000,2001,2002,2003) can be differentiated.

Thank you.

Check the seat belts, at the tail end, the Year of Manufacture is written there...

it could be changed. That is what i was meant to understand

He refused to give you the VIN then what are you waiting for before you run away??

Bros you seriously don't want car trouble if you can avoid it because the VIN will most likely also hint you on the history of the car. Make the guy park well joor!! Except maybe the price he's giving you is tempting

2000 model
