****SOLD****

*Clean Title*
Exterior Color: Absolutely Red
Interior Color: Black Escaine (Suede)
5 Speed Manual Transmission
190k Miles

Car runs great, is mechanically sound, and free from any major body damage. The 2JZ-GE engine runs strong and has always been filled up with Premium fuel. Just changed the transmission fluid and engine oil, so the car is ready for a new owner.

Includes the optional Limited Slip Differential - which is a must have!

The car is bone stock minus the exhaust and alarm system. The exhaust itself is a Manzo unit, which has a mild boost in sound level over the stock unit. Sounds great on throttle, but otherwise is near stock sound levels when cruising. In my opinion, it is the best exhaust for a daily driver. The alarm system is aftermarket and works great!

Slight Quirks for being a higher mileage car:
-Rough clutch engagement when cold (does not occur once car gets to operating temperature)
-Tricky 2nd gear engagement when cold (does not occur once car gets to operating temperature)
-Front door locks don't have the clicker lock function, must be manually locked (because of aftermarket alarm, however rear doors are locked via the clicker)
-Slight buzzing from dash area for 8 seconds after startup (I believe the A/C servo motors need replaced, however doesn't have any effect on A/C operation)

Overall this would be a fantastic daily driver, or platform to build further. The choice is yours! The car has all receipts from my ownership as well as the previous owner.

Car is in excellent condition for being 13 years old. Everything works as it should. Exterior is 8/10, Interior is 9/10.

*Absolutely no test drives without cash or proof of funds in hand.*

Asking $7,300 Firm (CASH ONLY)
Or trades + cash on your end. Looking for mainly VW 20th GTI/ VW GLI, or other oddball manual RWD Japanese cars.

Car is located in San Diego, CA.

Damn this is cool. Hope you get your asking price or close to it. My friend was just saying how much he misses his IS300.

Had it in another post, forgot to transfer it to this post. It's at 190k miles now. Running great!
Dashboard seems to be fine, isn't sticky in my opinion.

Red & white are so nice for these cars. The black interior is a must too! GLWS

My manual '03 is around 190k and hasn't skipped a bit so far :2f2f:

These are great cars with tons of potential.
