So I've begun my search to find a CPO 02/03 IS300 w/ 5-speed and navigation. After talking to dealers in 7 states, they've told me that finding one is going to be nearly impossible.

So, I've decided to just get a 5-speed and get an aftermarket navigation system.

Problem is, I don't know which one is good for the IS. I'd like to have it installed where the stock navigation would be, so that it doesn't cover up the climate controls and so that I can still use the stock stereo.

Can anyone reccomend a navigation system that has touch screen, voice recognition, and DVD playback abilities?

Thanks...

 

The popular ones out right now are the flip out Pioneer AVIC N2 or the double din Eclipse AVN 2454 or the new one AVN 5435.

Fujitsu-Ten the parent company of Eclipse develops alot of OEM Radio and Nav interface and equipment for Toyota/Lexus.

 

You really wanna 5spd with nav? I'll sell you mine! Actually I think for the right price I would! hahah )

 

I'd consider it, but I'm looking for one with less than 20k mileage and I want it certified with that lexus 3 yr/100k warranty...call me a wimp but I find the warranty reassuring

 

Oh sorry - i got 33k on the odo...oh well.

I'm probably better off keeping my fully loaded, not missing a single option for 2002, absolutely red IS ) Yup...its got it all - from the ful leather heated seats to the chrome wheels...ok ok i think i'm braggin now...i'll stop!

 

You can also consider the Kenwood Excelon double-DIN systems, those won't cover up your A/C controls. Look into the Kenwood Excelon DDX7015 or similar models.

 

yeah i heard that the eclipse is really good system, take a look at it

and man, where were you when i was selling my 03 is300 5 speed with nav a month ago @_@
