Help with vehicle
Hello, I would like to know if anyone knows if this is a Lexus and a possible year. I'm unsure and wanted to ask the experts. Thanks for the help.

Could be a 1992-1996 ES300 going by the wheels, but pic is too poor to really say.

The pursuit of F
99.99% sure it's an 92-96 ES300.
Giveaways:
- The painted gray lower section, it starts at the same height 1/3rd down from the top of the wheel well.
- The thin B-pillar.
- The wheel rim size and design mimics the 15inchers of the 02-06 ES.
- The long front and rear overhangs. The 07-2001 ES has slightly shorter overhands and longer wheelbase.
- The rear door glass/chrome trim joining the C-pillar is rounded.
- Front bumper bottom has a slight angle pointing outward seen from the side profile. The 07-2001 ES's lower front bumper angle points inward from the side profile.
- At night, what appears to be a thick C-pillar is actually the protruding glass. If you look closely at the night shot, you can see "through" the top which implies glass and not metal from a C-pillar. Again, the next gen ES has a flatter rear glass.
- The bottom profile of the rear bumper is mainly parallel to the road. The GS and next ES start thicker/lower at the wheel well and point slightly upwards towards the back.

And why do you need to know what this car is in this meaningless pic? I don't get it.
Probably first and last post....
Edit: I guess the one reason I could think of needing to ID this pic is because the driver is suspected of some crime?
