IS300's

[Flicktitty]

Opinions?
Thoughts?

I'm thinking of picking up a 2001 IS300
Automatic
130K miles
Greddy Evo exhaust
Altezza grill
Tein Basic coils

guy is asking $9,500

I thought it was a good price.

I was gonna pick it up for a nice daily that i could take anywhere, and have it be NICE. Most likely just do a intake shave the badges and put some differant wheels on the car. I know it won't be very quick, but seeing how i'm building a 2JZ'd S13 with the women, i don't need anything fast. just thought it would be nice.

Just wanted to see what you guys thought of the cars?

[stiizy]

^ I would do it

[Daniel.]

price sounds good. its comfy. probably pretty reliable. id put the stock exhaust back on though. dd's dont need loud exhausts imo. but do whatever you want to it.

mileage is rather high though. *shrug* probably explains the low price.

[BustedS13]

manual is300's seem to be very rare, but i'd hold out for a stick. i will never buy another automatic car, this acura is the most ho-hum boring driving.

Yeah, i know the mileage is about at the most i would want. But my buddy has a SC300 w/275K miles and it's still drivin strong. And i've seen Alot of 130K+Mileage MKIV supra's so i'd think it should still be good.

I'm not too sure how fond i will be of the Greddy exhaust on it either, but it could be nice.

Yes they are very rare, But i'm not sure i would want a manual Daily car, Never had to daily a 5spd car.....not sure i'd be a big fan.

[Jimmy Up]

I love stick daily's but you cant deny thats a bitchin little car.

DO IT!

[RiversideS13]

01 automatic are known to have a lot of problem. try to find a 02+ IS300. 01 is300 don't even come with armrest

manual IS300 are certainly worth it, it is much funner and 02-04 manual came with stiffer spring, carbon tail light and wheels, and LSD. i drive my manual IS300 in LA traffic just fine....

[The Chad]

I know a few people that went form S chassis to IS300's. They all love them. Smooth ride (stock suspention), good power, and auto tranny is smooth as crap so the ladies can sit back and enjoy the ride.....Did I mention they are quiet on the highway too :)

--There is tons of aftermarket support for them too, sooo easy to find parts in the future.

hmm i'll have to look into that. Thanks.

I just thought for the $9,500 he is asking if i can get it for 9, or $8,700. It would be nice. cause i think a Nice 02-04 Would be 10-18K and for that much i'd rather look into the 00-02 Audi S4....

Idk i will look into it. Thanks for the info though. Do you know what kind of problems?

That's what i like the Aftermarket, like i said some nice wheels, and some more suspension goodies it would be nice. Maybe even a NA-T kit? but i don't know. Thanks for the input.

[Brian]

I like them.
They are pretty nice, yet sporty (i guess)

:)

[RiversideS13]

i cannot remember exactly what are problems of 01 because i have not been to IS300 forums for a while. check out my.IS - Lexus IS Forum (http://my.is/) for more information. i just remember i read about the ECU, stereo, and transmission issue about 01 before.

my 02 has 70k miles and have not had any major problem yet besides one faulty oxygen sensor (that sucker got 4 of them) and air condition gets slightly warm compare to before. all power window or lock still functions well unlike bmw lol. my manual is300 gets about 22 mpg very consistently and i think automatic would get about 20 average. all females (young or old) loves it

i brought mine used in 06 with 49k miles

[allntrlundrgrnd]

my buddy drives a 6-speed one w/ intake and 3" exhaust.

its LOUD as FUCK lol but he likes it.

they are real nice cars, i LOVE the dash setup. plus its got the lexus factor= p-magnet

[illxs14]

^^ with what he said.. it's sporty and still a lexus
i've been looking at them too lately, the mileage is kinda high but the price is low for the car, and its white! haha

do it...do it.
my :2c:

[lucky7]

i'd get a 3 series instead. thats just me though. im not a fan of yotas in general. they bore me to death. lol.

[Flicktitty]

My buddy has a 03? or 04 325Xi and idk what it is about that car, but EVERYTIME i am in it i get a massive headache. i don't know if its the leather or what.

[Om1kron]

manual is300's seem to be very rare, but i'd hold out for a stick. i will never buy another automatic car, this acura is the most ho-hum boring driving.

they're not very rare, they were made for like 3 years after the car was released, it's just finding an is300 for less than 15k+ is rare.

that's a good price, i used to have an auto is300. great daily driver with no balls!

[SexPanda]

get a bmw.

1995 M3. <150k miles, under 10g's.

Lol. Nah, the lexus is a nice little car... But evety time I see one its just kinda ho hum to me.

[ZX88]

i love the is300 wagon /hatchbacks. so hot.

[VROOOM]

Yeah, i know the mileage is about at the most i would want. But my buddy has a SC300 w/275K miles and it's still drivin strong. And i've seen Alot of 130K+Mileage MKIV supra's so i'd think it should still be good.

Yes they are very rare, But i'm not sure i would want a manual Daily car, Never had to daily a 5spd car.....not sure i'd be a big fan.


those motors are strong. i had a SC300 with 180k and it still ran perfect.

[IIIXziuR]

I really do like them.
They are usually out of my price range though :(
I seen maybe 2 that were Manual Trans.
Most are Auto which is kinda boring but still a cool car.

[Erjay1]

I hate IS300's. To me they're just an expensive civic with ugly tail lights. But thats just my opinion and you can buy it if you want to. goodluck.

[Mtndrifter14]

I think you should wait for a stick one nick.

You know that's why I bailed cause its so hard to find one in stick and now why Im leaning towards wrx's.

But they are nice cars, but rwd in winter can be interesting especially on the highway cover with ice.

hahah you guys have snow there :p

[The Chad]

I hate IS300's. To me they're just an expensive civic with ugly tail lights. But thats just my opinion and you can buy it if you want to. goodluck.
:smash: :rl:

[Charlie]

If I could find one for that price around here I would buy it.

[rubenbandman]

^
agreed
looks like a very clean car..

[Flicktitty]

Thanks guys, There's lots of good info here.

I think i'm gonnna go look at the car up close this week.
I did some more searching on Craigslist and saw an ad 2 weeks ago with the same car for 11K with some work wheels. The person said he wanted a better car for winter. So i wonder if he traded the car in to that dealership or another one and they got it through a auction. So i'm gonna get ahold of him and see what he got for the car. And work from there.

[Fat Felix]

how about a gs400?

[Flicktitty]

how about a gs400?
Rather a 300.
I like the 3L not a huge fan of the V8.

[cxlo8331]

been looking into this aswell.
looking for a new daily.
something a little less flashy than my current.

price seems good.
mileage is slightly high; but shouldn't be an issue.
hope you like it.
toyota's are reliabe.

[s14kings]

I hate IS300's. To me they're just an expensive civic with ugly tail lights. But thats just my opinion and you can buy it if you want to. goodluck.
How do you compare a lexus to a honda...

[Bubbles]

They seem alright.

Personally I would buy a cheap civic or something and get to work on the 2jz hotness.

[Fat Felix]

Rather a 300.
I like the 3L not a huge fan of the V8.

what's a 3L? I have a gs300 right now, and wish I waited to get a 400. 300's are sooo slow.

I think is300 is cool too, but they look kinda girly without dope wheels and stance.

[soreballz]

I hate IS300's. To me they're just an expensive civic with ugly tail lights. But thats just my opinion and you can buy it if you want to. goodluck.
WOW. You're fucking dumb. I sincerely hope that you haven't had the opportunity to reproduce yet, and if you haven't already, please, for the sake of the rest of Mankind, DON'T.

I like IS's. I drove a few while I worked at a Toyota dealer. They are soooo fucking comfortable; it's ridiculous. Stock cluster and steering wheel setup is rad, too. lol

[RiversideS13]

I hate IS300's. To me they're just an expensive civic with ugly tail lights. But thats just my opinion and you can buy it if you want to. goodluck.

lol Does G35 sedan just like a expensive sentra too?

[Gnnr]

Mileage is too high for my taste. I feel you can get a better car for the price. If you like it go for it.

[touge monster]

YEp. 5spd IS300 is amazingly comfortable to drive.

Auto IS are super slow

3Liter ;)

Thanks for hte thoughts everyone.

it's something to think about.

[VQMaxFan]

Go for it man, i cant stand white IS300's for some reason (ex had one). I love the dark metallic blue ones though, Ive only seen 2 or 3 of those.

Id love to get one of those or a wrx as a replacment for my maxima.

[lflkajfj12123]

*waits for someone to post risky devil sxe10*

[drift freaq]

lol Does G35 sedan just like a expensive sentra too?

If you think that you have not driven a G35 there is no comparing them to a Sentra.

Oh and IS300's are dope and the fool that compared to a Honda is a complete idiot.

[Mangudai]

Its been 9 years and I still want a IS300. Love those cars.

[mehsilvia]

Yeah, definately a good buy.

My wifey has an 04 IS 300 Auto in Graphite. Its a very comfortable and sporty car for a daily. The Auto trans is a bit sluggish (hesitation/lag when mashing the throttle), but thats my ONLY complaint about the car.

I say do it.

[Dutchmalmiss]

Since everyone says the manual trans models are difficult to find, I'm assuming a manual trans wagon would be even more rare? If these exist, I may seriously consider one if so.

[Erjay1]

Thats why I said "That's my opinion". I hate IS300's. TO ME they look like crap and they look like an expensive Civic. Notice I said LOOKS. Again, thats just my opinion. Some people think 240's are ugly and worthless and others like most of us here actually love them. Yes Ive driven an IS300 and I hated every minute of it. Handles like ass, looks like ass and performs like ass. <--- Again, just MY opinion ;)

Have a nice day.

[Flicktitty]

Yeah. i think they only made 2000? or 3000 Sportcrosses (wagons) So i could only imagine how tricky it is to find a 5spd one.

Also do the Auto 01's come with a LSD? or just some of them?

[ESmorz]

Apparently there is only one good looking IS in the states.

[C. Senor]

^heat.

is's are pretty fun. got one in as a trade in. girl driven. i took it out and came back...she was like was it fun. i laughed and told her it wasn't too bad. lol

but is's are pretty comfortable. i had a gs, compared to that the is's is way more sporty feeling. i say get it. great daily driver and fun little car to drive.

[RiversideS13]

Since everyone says the manual trans models are difficult to find, I'm assuming a manual trans wagon would be even more rare? If these exist, I may seriously consider one if so.

I believe sportscross (wagon) only comes with automatic model. however, it also comes with staggered wheels and different front bumper.

a manual model with white body color is also very very rare, i only seen one so far.

my supra owner friend said it drives just like a NA supra

[driven_]

feng auto (fengauto.com) has an 04 Manual. (yes, manual) IS300 for 13k.

has like 60k miles i think?


go take a look.
i'd love to get it. but i'm 16. :P

[lucky7]

i dont like that red one. too much shit going on. i like them better with a more subtle color and only a nice set of wheels.

[BustedS13]

front plate? yuck

[BRAIN_Z33]

IS are great cars if you can find one with alright milage, but the one you specify would scare the bejesus outta me, my friend had one with 100,XXX miles and ran like garbage, but than again he didnt even know how to CHECK his own oil, let alone never gave it oil changes :duh:

that guy is still in business?

I think i'll pass. My buddy bought a S13 from him a few years ago when they first got into the "popular car scene" and it was a dud.

but it looks like it was a bank owned car.... i just don't know how he can price shit the way he does.

[ayuaddict]

i would LOVE to build one...

maybe throw like a 1J in it if im feeling tricky.

too bad i can't even afford to build a decent S13.

...one day.

[sidewaysil80]

i just picked up an 04' sport edition w/ 54k and MINT condition. its auto, but it was nice to get away from the 240 scene and not have to worry about any reliability problems lol. but i do miss driving manual though, the paddle shifters are kinda rad though lol. the best part is is their is an intake that gives like 20something whp and and a set of headers that showed 27whp gains. so you you figure, that intake,header/y pipe combo, and an exhaust and your looking at or around a 50whp gain for under 2 grand!!!!!

[JoeC1982]

how much did you pay if you don't mind me asking? i'm looking at a 05 auto with 35k on it, they're asking 17,900 but i was going to offer 15k and see what happens.

also which intake and headers are those?

Damn, wth. Where they using straws for the intake and exhaust system? Those are some big gains...

[!Zar!]

It all comes down to emission really...

But I'm not sure if you're just able to just say (X1 X2) = Xhp.

But I will say that the power increase is pretty good.

[Flicktitty]

Well, i guess i'll update if anyone cares. I went and looked at it. I liked it, sat in the car started it up, no problems, looked at the odometer...and thought what the fuck am i thinking. and got out.......

i like the cars but i think i wanna find a better mileaged one.

[!Zar!]

Yeah if you're going to drop some cash on one, get one you really like.

There is a GGP 5sp with 90k miles at a dealership up here for 12.5.

With times and money being tight these days I'm sure you can talk them down...

Never settle. I'm looking for an m5 and still haven't found the right one and I've been searching all over the place.

[JoeC1982]

mileage is high, my 96 S14 only has 112k miles on it.

[lflkajfj12123]

NO do not!

i bought a 95 s14 from there

(it was the only clean car on the lot)

and the fucker put in a smaller battery causing my alternator to fry

guy is a total prick rip off central

place is a piece of shit in the slums of china town

his little bitch cockboy helper was hitting on my girlfriend while i was looking at the car

[!Zar!]

mileage is high, my 96 S14 only has 112k miles on it.Not really. The average person drives 15k +/- years per year. So that puts the prior owner of that car right around the average.

The mileage on your s14 just happens to be low.
NO do not!

Yeah, I've heard quite a few stories about feng.

As for your gf... I call BS that she is worth looking at until you pm me pics.

[Gnnr]

Not really. The average person drives 15k +/- years

That's not what I remember reading. The way I calculate it is 10K is whats supposed to be normal. 12K is the real average. 15K is the more extreme of the average....if that makes any sense.

What I always wonder if people calculate it from the year the car was made or the year its tagged with. A car made at the second half of '03 is tagged as a '04 model for instance.

But what it comes down to is this. If you're gonna be laying down $10K or $100K the car better be worth that (or more if you're getting a bargain) and you should be comfortable with the mileage and condition.

[!Zar!]

True.

But it really depends on the buyer.

I wouldn't buy a new used car with over 50k personally.

[Flicktitty]

NO do not!

Your from Chicago? No idea.

as far as the mileage, when i found the car it was posted twice on CL. once by a dealer and a few days prior by the original owner. Guy said he drove 45-50Miles 1 way to work every day on the freeway so i could understand the miles.

[dynamicck]

i always wanted an IS. this video only made me want it more.

how much did you pay if you don't mind me asking? i'm looking at a 05 auto with 35k on it, they're asking 17,900 but i was going to offer 15k and see what happens.

also which intake and headers are those?

long story short i paid 14k, the dealership had two of them one sport design (they were asking 19,900 for) and the regular one, same color and interior colors were the same. well, i got them down to 14k for the regular one (which was in worse shape) and they sent the guys to grab it and wash it, after the paperwork was all done i went out side to drive away and noticed some dents were no longer there, i opened it up and noticed the carbon fiber trim kit and thought they added it, then i realized the car washers brought the wrong car and the salesman sent someone else to grab the vin off of it and he obviously didnt realized the mistake either lol...checked the paperwork and no shit they accidentally sold me the sport design version for 14k... they called a couple days later after they realized it and asked if i would come back and switch out, they were dicks though the whole time, so i politley told them no.

oh btw, the headers/y pipe combo are made by mazzuri racing and the intake is a swift racing technologies (srt) and it comes with a ecu chip thats plug and play. on the is forums you can find back to back dyno runs and proof.

[JoeC1982]

Nice work on that one, i found the swift intake already. Mazzuri just closed its doors from what i've read so their header may be hard to find.

[sidewaysil80]

Nice work on that one, i found the swift intake already. Mazzuri just closed its doors from what i've read so their header may be hard to find.


shit that sucks i was really planning on buying that...i wonder if their is another y-pipe/headers that give that much gain and "not ricy" sound quality

[Mi Beardo es Loco]

the is300 is a beast, especially when you turbo it.

[SimpleS14]

i love the is300 wagon /hatchbacks. so hot.

really? you're the first I've seen (read) that actually likes that body style.

[origin_s135]

^^
i know a friend that has one, it's allllllllllllllllright. i prefer the sedan more.

[JoeC1982]

I went and drove one tonight, very smooth drivetrain and i liked it alot but the interior didn't feel as nice as my 05 TSX. they wanted way too much too, 19,900 for a 05 even with under 30k miles.

[DrIvEsldEwAyS]

my roomate just sold his 5spd is for 12k. he loved it, fun to drive, somewhat good on gas and pretty comfortable.

[Flicktitty]

really? you're the first I've seen (read) that actually likes that body style.
X2, i am a HUGE wagon guy and not a real fan of it.

[pink godzila]

Take your time and look for a 5sp!!

[Jeezy240]

if it was me i would hold out and find a manual one with less miles for less money.

but i would look around a little more.

01 automatic are known to have a lot of problem. try to find a 02+ IS300. 01 is300 don't even come with armrest

manual IS300 are certainly worth it, it is much funner and 02-04 manual came with stiffer spring, carbon tail light and wheels, and LSD. i drive my manual IS300 in LA traffic just fine....

not all manuals came with smoked tails. that was only L-tuned and some other model.
but thats not all manuals.

my buddy drives a 6-speed one w/ intake and 3" exhaust.

its LOUD as FUCK lol but he likes it.

they are real nice cars, i LOVE the dash setup. plus its got the lexus factor= p-magnet
what IS came with a 6speed?

did he do a v160?
they're not very rare, they were made for like 3 years after the car was released, it's just finding an is300 for less than 15k+ is rare.

that's a good price, i used to have an auto is300. great daily driver with no balls!


go look on my.IS you can many IS for sale. you can find a a turbo one for 13 right now. and you can find a 5seep with 75k and a bunch of mods for 7,900 obo.
I hate IS300's. To me they're just an expensive civic with ugly tail lights. But thats just my opinion and you can buy it if you want to. goodluck.
lol hah yeah your right about the tails. they are horribly ulgy.
If I could find one for that price around here I would buy it.

my.is

all day long for cheeper.

My.IS. You can many them.


hahaha. I had to...


Honestly, my.is is a shitpile of a forum.

I haven't posted on there in forever. Those guys are stubborn and jerk each other off worse than nico.

Only a handful of people were worthwhile on that forum.

And those people joined zilvia/zt.

if it was me i would hold out and find a manual one with less miles for less money.

but i would look around a little more.



not all manuals came with smoked tails. that was only L-tuned and some other model.
but thats not all manuals.




interesting, so what do i have? it is 02 intensa blue but not L-tune or sports design, but it has LSD, graphite tail light and wheels. as far as i remembered, there are only non sports design model and sports design model available, so what are other models are out there? I thought i read somewhere that manual model comes with a package with those stuffs.

What's another good IS site?

i was on my.is but more the marrier.

clublexus.com is another one but as posted above IS forums are pretty shitty, its like talking to a bunch of little kids who jock each other.

Smoked tails came on 03+ darker colored cars also I think

[sblack13]

i'm pretty sure smoked tails are 02+ up.
manuals are only +02 up.

Recently picked one up. Have no regrets at all, its a great car.

[!Zar!]

Smoked tails are only on L-Tuned models.

Funny, I live in Florida I don't see those things anywhere. Guess I'm not looking hard enough.

All I ever see are those ghey SC430s.

some came with the TRD package. it kinda sounds like it was a special order car. some guy liked those things and bought it.


dont know. but not all manuals came with that.
