you would have to be throwing in extra money on top of the car to get a decent sc300. especially if you want it in manual. i'm not talking about my sc.. just in general.

good luck, but that in most cases would be a downgrade for an sc owner. Not to dog on the es owners.

yea i'd have to agree. i wouldn't go from a SC to an ES myself.

do you have any pics of the car? might help others get some ideas.

ur best bet would be to sell the car, then buy the sc
not many SC owners would do a straight up trade
also, if they did, something's probably wrong w/ their car

I guess im screwed!

When I got my car I thought that the SCs were ugly. Now I think they are the best looking Lexus ever made (tied with the new GSs). The reason I got my car was I wanted to be able to drive my friends around. Now im sick of having such a big car, and want something that less people have. Everyone has a 92-96 ES 300 where I live. It doesn't feel right when I pull up to a stop light and the car to my left and right is the same car as mine.

I know that I can't sell my car because I have wrecked it. I smashed the whole front in. It was $9,000 to fix. I was told by one body shop that it was ready for the junk yard and that they would give $800 for it.

The car looks ok now, but the hood isn't on right and left head light is foggy and the a$sholes that fixed the car ripped the floor mat in the back seat. The glove box is a messed up a little from the air bag going off. Also there is a cigarette burn in the back seat.

That's gonna be a tough sell, amigo. Best bet is to take that beater ES to Carmax and get what you can for it before problems start to show up. Then, take your cash & get what you want. Just my .02
