Default Any issues on IS300 1st Gen?

Hello;

I'm assisting a neighbor with purchasing a Lexus IS300. She is currently looking at a 2002 MY. I did search the forum and am concerned about transmission issues. Is there anything I should specifically look at in a Pre Inspection?

Thanks. Ohh, I did check out some of the car in your forum. Looking good.

On the inspection part...Just make sure that they had the major services done. At a stealership, it will cost roughly around $1600+ on a 90k service.
Other than that, I am very happy with my IS.
