Picking it up saturday morning

 

Congrats and dang thats a pretty good price. wells happy future motoring and turing

Congrats! Hmmm i wonder who's getting to 50k first. You with your 2001 IS, or my 18.5 month old 2004 IS w/48100 miles on the odometer.

 

good job...did you happen to get this one?

let me know, I got my IS300 from them also back in 2002

...good people....and I live 5 min away from there...

 

Hey that's the rare cloth interior model with the rare 16" 6 spokes.

 

yeah that's really rare, seriously this is probably like the 3rd or 4th time i see 16s, let alone cloth seats

 

The 16" wheels and cloth alone do not make it rare...a number of those were produced. (except in yellow). What makes it rare is the fact it has the sunroof with the 16" wheels and the cloth. I don't think I have ever seen one like that myself.....sunroof, cloth, 16" wheel package.....unless that is an aftermarket sunroof. The factory sunroofs pretty much came with the power seats, leather, and 17" wheels.
I have a rare 2001 myself....a yellow base model with the 16" wheels, no sunroof, and cloth....just the way I wanted it. Lexus tells me that only 2 were built this way......in yellow......if you can believe them.

 

Congrats
Post some pics when you get your car!!

 

That's not true. I've seen a handful of Cloth seat interior w/ factory moonroof. Moonroofs are a standalone option but are often packaged with the leather or alcantara(escaine) value packages. 16" wheels was a stand alone option as well.

 

OK...I'll take your word for it that you've seen them....but they ARE rare in this area. Perhaps SoCal's generally warm, dry climate makes them more popular where you are....as are the lousy-in-the-snow 17" summer tires.

We do, of course have plenty of sunroof IS300's in this area but they are almost without exception the way I described them...with other options.

One thing we BOTH will agree is not rare is the silver color.

 

No but what is rare is seeing a nav model IS Sport-X w/no moonroof and in Bluestone. Now that's rare.

 

What you are taking about is SUPER-rare. ANY SportCross is pretty much rare.

 

HAHAHAHA, why thank you very much Flip

Its very nice of you calling my car rare, not like my cousin, which refers my Sport-X as an roof-less abnormal freak LOL

 

LOL!!! Hahaha. Yeah very rare combo IS that you have.
