That's a fine looking ES with some cool mods. el gato, are you trying to emulate this one?

I think this ES has been posted on CL before. This is what mezoom caught on camera early last year. It looks almost the same to me.

your's looks much nicer gato.....like no comparison if you ask me. Those wheels look like trash, and the quad exhaust is just way too much on an ES, especially because it has nowhere to take them....if they sat flush into the bumper like on an M3 then maybe, but not here.........your car is absolute class the way it is....this thing looks like trash.

just my .02 cents of course.....

I love the tail lights on the 00 & 01 models.....I think that's a very smart 'upgrade' in the 97 - 99 model's!! Their georgous.

yeah the car is nice, but i'd probably choose some less 'i can check my tartar and floss needs in your wheels' type of rims. the double/dual exhaust has to go.

thas my 2 cents also.

The more I look at the ES now, the more I also think the double/dual exhaust does not belong at all. It sticks out too much from the stock bumper for no reason. For what it's worth, I'd rather take the stock double exhaust from the Pontiac Grand Am
