Went to photograph my friend's Honda S2000 the other day, so I came back to my own car and tried a few new angles...

Time to fantasize about getting 18" wheels and a 1" drop... :confused:

Shiny cars kick ass!!! :woot:

As far as 18" wheels, that's easy. I'm not sure about springs for the ES350 though...

moky Dec 2, 2008 03:14 PM

springs are easy. it has already been confirmed that the gen6 (07-09) camry suspension can fit. there were a couple of threads on it before and one member has gone with coilovers on his es350. if i recall correctly it was bchi99 who had em

Wow....now that's damn smooth!!...When you got a car like the ES you have to keep it 'tight'...I agree shiny 'black' cars kick ass.....lol

Bump...forgot to post the other pictures from that same photoshoot, but at a different location. I particularly like the last one.

Man...you really got this ride together....I can really appreciate a good car well taken care of.....you know how to handle your bizness...Is that Black Sapphire!!...that last pic looks different in the shade...Question. Did you wax or just wash it and what did you use...Thanks

This car was new in February; I have yet to wax it. Scrub marks are beginning to appear, so I will be having it waxed after this rain season. The car is actually a Smoky Granite Mica.

Don't worry, it looks nothing like that right now after the recent rain and mud.

Beautiful car. Elegance, Bold. :cool:

LexPaul Dec 20, 2008 07:41 PM

Ok...it's all good...yeah I can understand the elements not a lot you can do about that. For the short term I plan to keep mine in the driveway....until I can move some things around my garage...I'll probably go with a car cover in the interim....I think I will add the rear lip spoiler as well...looks really good....You still rockin though!!

Mister T Dec 20, 2008 09:24 PM

Clean car and nice pics :thumbup:

LexPaul Dec 23, 2008 07:04 PM

Everyone,

This Friday is the real deal I hope...Plan to make an offer on a Level III 09 ES (premium plus w/Nav+park-assist). I'm going for invoice...Color black/black...got to have this combination.... and I'll probably add a rear lip spoiler...I'm in the ATL area...One dealer said he would give me 1K over invoice on a 09.....not bad...but I believe I can do better...Has anyone purchased a Level III ES at invoice??..I know Lexus' sales are off by some 30% for November...so this should be a great time to nail down a good deal...I'll let everyone know how it goes....

Unbelievable pics!

My SGM hasn't looked that good since it rolled off the showroom floor...long ago. I think I might treat myself to a Lexus detailing after looking at those pics. Especially since I have freeze protection on all the hose bibs. :rolleyes:

Some scrappy snaps while my car was in for maintenance...

First a bonus shot, a silvery/greenish hue RX350:

A less pose-y shot, at my high school (been a while...).
