No love for the RX? I've been driving the wife's car a lot lately and it's a relief after driving a low sc, nothing to worry about like potholes and speed bumps. The car does tend to disappear in a sea of mdx, rdx, and rx being popular around here in the metro dc area.

what about a 3rd gen es300
find a way to put in a 2j and convert it to RWD
idk what it is but i like the look of it the headlights kind of remind me of a S14 or S15
i think that would be a pretty kickass sedan if it were rwd

the ES is just a glorified camry IMO. If you plan to buy a ES just save yourself some money and buy a camry

I find it much easier to just swap it, most people who go for higher hp later on prefer gte anyways.
