Hey, I'm a collector now!
Just finished cleaning up my second ES300.
Got this one in Orlando just like the first one two years ago.
The new one was pretty rough. usual stuff like the IAV sticky, yellow headlight lenses and scratched up woodgrain plastic.
Some carb cleaner, Sea Foam and the Mirror Glaze treatment and it's ready to go. I bought a quart of grey/beige metalic for the lower valance and painted them both since I was at it.
They both had 178K on them when I bought them. The first one 2 years ago was $3800 and has 210K now. The second one I got about a month ago for $2800.

No worries about getting bored.
The latest one is for my daughter who turns 16 in January.
The cars in her school lot look like Demo Derby contestants so I'm sure it will soon have many "unique" differences.
It will be the only Lexus in the lot though, might as well paint a bulls eye on it.

Was that Gray/Beige metallic paint for the varience the same color as the 94 Black/Gray?
I have a black 94 ES300 with the Gray varience and I have been searching the internet for the particular color of that varience. Nothing in the VIN and/or door tags give me a color number other than the standard Black Onyx main color.
Any color code would be greatly appreciated!
Like the twins, BTW!

That's awesome that you have twin Lexus ES cars and the same color too. Keep up the great work and you'll definitely enjoy many many miles with both of your ES 300's...
