Sounds a little pricey being i payed 8k for my 99 ES with 60k on it. But i guess these are somewhat rare cars. Can these engines last with high miles?

You're comparing an ES to an SC in pricing comparison?

I fear crossovers.............

These engines last forever. My '92 5-speed has 225K on original engine and transmission and it's still running strong. I wouldn't call that car overpriced at all, it's not a steal of a deal but it's not overpriced either.

Car is priced exactly where it should be, and could actually be a bit low considering it's a 5-speed.

Looks to be a little expensive but 5 speeds are hard to come by. I would also take a 93 5-speed SC300 over a 99 ES but thats just me. I'm sure you should be able to talk them down to the $4500 area.
