It's a toss up between white or black. But if I had to choose a color, dwp is the best only cause I have it.

lexster, what kind of suspension are you running in your ES? Springs/struts? Coilovers? It seems to sit pretty lowered and looks nice with the SC430 wheels

Looks like Intrax to me... Nice height at the rear, still some gap up front... Just like mine.

None of the above… Neither intrax nor coilovers. I’m sorry to tease you guys, but let’s just say I had a lot going on in the trunk.
I can’t wait to get my suspension though, after having the rear just a finger gap. The car looks insane when your finger could barley get between the wheel and the fender! I had to take a few shots of it.
I thought Juan had it figured out when he mentioned that gap in the front.

lexsterES, was it a one or two body soprano day?

on a side note, the SC430 (new style) rims are kickin! Very nice.

LOL you got us!!

One of the reasons I don't want to go with a huge bass pumpin "system"... I won't be able to have anymore passengers with my drop.... also it would make the drop even more uneven. Lucky for you newer model guys, you have coilovers as an option.

Naw, it was the equivalent to a three body soprano day,LOL. I was hauling some bricks for my house. Who said a lexus can’t be used as a truck?
But anyways, thanks for the compliments guys. Just give me a few mouths; I have some mods on the way.

Thumbs up Nicest ES color?

As far as the factory stock colors go, probably a toss-up between the Diamond White Pearl and the Black Garnet. As far as the aftermarket paint jobs on the forum, probably the burnt-orange sunset.

One of the nicest colors I have ever seen on the 2000 ES was Charlcoal Gray. I never even knew these cars were availible in this color. But I saw some old guy driving one down the highway about 2weeks ago. The interior was dark gray as well, what a classy color for that bodystyle!

juan01 and el gato have nice rides, also the worlds best looking ES (the Autocouture model) is black. dont know if that means anything
