I am testing the waters on my 2003 Silver 5-speed Lexus IS300. CLEAN TITLE, No accidents, no thefts, no bullshit. Non-smoker. It has some dings and dents and front bumper fade, headlight yellowing, not perfect however for a car of this age, very nice condition. Interior is good with the exception of the common tacky dash paint issue. I was planning on removing and repainting/flocking the dash, however school has kept me too busy to. Very well maintained. This car is one of the most reliable vehicles one could possibly own, yet still have fun with. Powered by a naturally aspirated 2JZ-GE, it can be driven in stock form or upgraded to near Supra status. What makes this even better is it is a 5-Speed car. These tend to be rather rare, surrounded by a sea of automatic IS300s. This makes it the perfect platform for upgrading and building your own 4-door monster, whether you want to build a big turbo highway machine, or a drift car to get you sideways in style.
It has the stock audio system (CD 6 disc in-dash changer, tape player, amplifier), which sounds awesome, no blown speakers, etc. It has power seats, power mirrors, sunroof (I just Googled the difference between sunroof and moonroof, now a days the same thing, its glass and shit), keyless entry (and I still have the spare key), and climate control, featuring Ice Cold air conditioning. It also has some goofy cargo net for the trunk.
The mileage just hit above 107k, and is ready to go on to 250k+, not uncommon for IS300s, and Toyota reliability in general. This is my daily driver so the miles will increase, I will update with any big mileage increases.
On the car, I have Stance GR+ and SSR Vienna Kriess F- 18x** +**, R - 18x** +** wrapped in ****. Car is stanced out with rolled fenders all around. Car was also recently aligned. The cars braking system has also been upgraded with Endless Brake pads and Power-Slot rotors. The car also has a straight pipe welded from the catalytic converter back. I have all the stock parts including the exhaust, wheels, and suspension to go with the new owner, though the exhaust will need a new flange welded on to reinstall***. Reinstall stock shit and make some good buck off me.
I am looking for something different. I would prefer to sell for outright for cash, however I will consider trades for higher end cars plus cash on my end. Please do not send me offers for Civics, 240sxs, Miatas, etc. I have had my share of those cars, not very interested.
I am asking 11,500 or best offer. Reasonable offers considered, I don’t care what you saw the salvage titled, high mileage, automatic car for, or how much your friend got one for. You could part out the wheels and coilovers and put yourself below that range, and still have a manual transmission car to work with.
Only trades I will consider would be for Mercedes-Benz (AMG models preferably), BMW M3, M5, 135i, 335i, (maybe other models, inquire me), Subaru STIs, Mitsubishi Evolutions, and other higher end cars, plus cash on my end for a fair value. No projects, or shenanigans.
I am in Shreveport, LA. I can get any pictures upon request, however I have tried to outline the car as well as I could with the photos to show you any flaws the car has.
