Default Where to Buy?

Returning to the ES scene. I recently totaled my Infiniti I35 and have decided I want another Lexus ES300. My first car ever was a 92 ES300 and I've missed it ever since I traded it in.

I've decided to persue a late model ES300, 97-01 model. I've got a $3000 cash budget and would love to squease into a 00-01 model, but I know that's unlikely.

Anyone have any suggestions for where to look for an ES? Craigslist has a few, but they're all over my price range. Are there any auctions I should check out?

Thanks!

While likely out your price range I recommend Hennessy Lexus of Gwinnett, ask for Frank Mullin and tell him Mike from SELOC sent you. They sometimes have older ESs there and they stand behind their cars, even used ones. Good luck.

I will also vouch for Hennessy Lexus...I know the guys over at the Atlanta store a bit better due to my dealership being practically right across the street!!!

I would really try looking at dealership websites for a good used car...keep in mind that this would not be recommended in the past, but with the used car market booming right now, dealerships are selling more used cars than new ones so they are holding onto their trades and wholesale cars...some good deals out there, just need to look...

Good Luck
