Default FS: Rare Black 93 ES300 5 speed! Low miles! NYC

I have here a very rare hard to find 1993 ES300 w/a manual transmission. I believe it was only produced from 92-93 and only 1% was made. Every time i bring it to a shop, I get alot of surprised looks! the mechanics always tell me this is the first time they seen a es300 in stick.

I love this car. I wish i didn't have to part with it but my mother and I need to share cars and she doesn't know/want to drive a stick shift.

The car was originally from Florida. The guy i bought it from drove it up to new jersey from florida. I bought it at 69k miles and now it has ~86k on it. Over the past two years, I've spent ALOT of time and money fixing and modding the car to make it the car it is now. It is great car for a lexus enthusiast. Low miles and 5 speed! Now that's a gem.

As you can see, I've put IS300 rims on the car and it's the perfect match. Why it didn't come from the factory like that I have no idea.

It's got 4 brand new (less than 500miles) falken ziex low profile tires on it. New distributor cap and rotor. New Denso spark plug wires. All 6 injectors were replaced early this year. I recently replaced all the bushings under the chasis with polyurethane performance bushings. (Front control arms, Rear Control Arms, Rear Trailing arms, and steering rack bushing) Also replaced at the same time were 2 front ball joints and a new rear trailing arm.

The only engine mod i have is a Cold Air Intake.

For lighting, i did a foglight rewire mod so the fogs can come on with the corners only. and i also put in 7000k HID kit in the projector headlamps. The look of the contrast between 7000k headlights and deep yellow fogs is amazing.

The audio system in this car was the best i ever heard. No lies. It's upgraded with a pioneer head unit 5500mp. It plays mp3 cds and it has a ton of options for tuning the sound. The front and back speakers are JBL speakers. The amp is a crunch 500 watt 4 channel amp. Obviously i cannot describe sound so you have to listen to believe.

As for security, it comes with a compustar 2 way pager alarm/ remote start. The remote start is wired so that you cannot start it in gear.

Obviously the car comes with all the luxuries that's standard of a lexus. leather power seats, seat heaters, auto climate control, moonroof, etc.

Oh and it comes with very rare JDM evolution eyelids. I bought them from Juan, a CL member last year. They're discontinued so makes them very expensive and hard to find. Also did the s2000 antenna mod.

It does have a slight oil leak from the valve covers which is very common with this generation ES/camry. It's not serious leak and it shouldn't be hard to fix. Just do a search on CL.

Well, these are just the things i can think of off the top of my head. Theres alot more to this car than what i write.

Come stop by and test drive the car. It's a very fun car to drive! I promise

The Kbb for Excellent condition is $4,975 and Good condition is $4,550.
Keep in mind kbb does not account for rarity and mods.

I would say the condition of this car is in between excellent and good.

I'm asking $4700 negotiable. I'm gonna post it on craigslist too. The car won't last. ES300 enthusiasts should jump on it ASAP and continue this project!

Thanks for the kind words guys!

For those that are interested, the price is negotiable, so don't be afraid to make offers.

The ULTIMATE daily driver! If you were in the southwest, it would have been sold already. Good luck!
