this is why I'm ripping my hair out trying to find a 350 Sport in white.. WAY TOO specific...

I live in NYC.. i have only seen 3 IS350's... in recent years (seen as in identified the rear badge as an IS350)

I saw one last month and almost got like excited

I have seen only two other IS350s besides my own in my area of the far NW burbs of Chicago.

I have seen a few IS350 here (probably about 20%). They are all SFP.

Yeah most of the ones I see around CA are white too! And a few Obsidian/SGM ones once in a while.

I am running into the same problem! I have been looking for a 2007-09 is350 for a couple of weeks now and have come to find out that they are rare indeed! They really do keep their value! I have expanded my search to 150 miles and still only a couple are listed. With the new models coming out I am hoping some one with trade one in for a newer one!

I'm on the same boat as you but my criteria is next to impossible.

IS350
2007-2009 (Preferably 2007 because it's a lot cheaper and I like the number 7 LOL)
Starfire Pearl
Black Interior
Stock Spoiler
50k mileage and under

and oh yeah, 25k and under price tag.

the 350s are much rarer up north. Lexus of North Hills in Pittsburgh told me that between the 2 Lexus dealers in the area they only sold 9 350s in an entire year. this was before it was awd but even with the awd it doesn't tend to sell as fast as the 250
