trying to sell before my friend moves on tuesday so i can buy his s2000



Location: Whidbey Island WA

Vin #: JTHBD182610003381
Clean Title in hand

Asking $7600, looking to sell ASAP because I found an s2000 I am going to buy. Most clean title IS300s are going for around $10k on craigslist.


120k freeway miles
automatic 5 speed tranny
Clean inside and out
1 previous owner besides me
needs an allignment, check engine is on for 4th o2 sensor (after the cat so doesnt affect driving)
leather/suede interior

optional chrome rims w good tires
Just had oil change with full synthetic, tranny fluid change, and coolant flush from Jiffy Lube

I have a set of megan racing 2" lowering springs I can throw in for $100 more

Not a bad price at all! I loved driving my friend's IS, other than the fact that his is Yellow. They're fun cars to drive, with plenty of power.

Why is it so hard to find a manual transmission for the IS300?

BTW: the 2002 is300 is rated 2/5 by JD Power for initial mechanical quality. 2002 3-series was rated 4/5. so much for lexus reliability...

-From the link that you posted.

Ouch. There goes that idea of purchasing a Lexus.

^^My buddy went from a 325i to the IS which he's had for almost 5 years without any mechanical problems at all. As long as you treat it well, it will do so in return. I swear he was always fixing that annoying BMW, and it wasn't cheap.

Bump for a great deal, compared to many others in the NW price-wise.

Yeah, My friend has had his for almost 5 years now, and the only thing to ever give him a problem was some O2 sensor that threw a code, but didn't affect drivability. He replaced it finally, and it didn't make a bit of difference. Good reliable cars from what I've seen of them.
