well since i'm down on my luck, my parents and grandparents have decided to purchase the car for me instead, atleast until i can get my 525i parted out and get some money to start paying for it. If i do get a ES it will go VIP.

Isnt the ES 2001 the Windom (aka ES330)? Cuz when I was in Japan during the winter of 2001 I saw the new Windom at the Tokyo Toyota HQ and I was one of those few people who saw it before it was released lol.

I think I just answered my own question

I would get the es over the camry. you realize you listed an economy sedan, a semi luxurious cross over vehicle, and a sporty box on wheels. I wouldnt even know how to start comparing those.
