IS300 Exhausts
I’ve seen aftermarket exhausts for IS350s but none for the IS300 AWD (2016). Just trying to have it sounds like the IS300 has ***** to it. Plus, who doesn’t like the sound of a nice exhaust?
1. Do they even make aftermarket exhausts for the IS300? (didn’t find any after a quick google search)
2. Would the IS300 have the same fitment as the IS350?
I am a a complete noob and this is my first post. Hoping there will be many more!

There's only one section on the midpipe of the AWD that is different, just need to get a detour put in. I've bought a RWD exhaust and hope to have it on next week, will post pics of the modification.

Depends on whether you’re just wanting to do an axleback exhaust swap or a full catback exhaust swap. Axleback will be easier and cheaper, it’s what I did on mine and it sounds amazing. Axlebacks on all 3IS should be interchangeable if I’m not mistaken, but the midpipe is definitely different between AWD and RWD on the V6.
Any ideas why these companies only market these parts as IS250/IS350 parts?

Any 350 exhaust will fit the 300...its the same car literally. Likely the aftermarket companies are too lazy to go back and relabel everything to include 300. Also once you hit 2018 the 300 is now the turbo 4...so that will even create more labeling issues.
Except for trim level options, the only difference of note is the Engine ECU.
And the RWD cat back exhausts can fit the AWD if the driver's side pipe is bent slightly to clear the transfer case. Any reputable exhaust should be able to do this for you if you bring them a RWD exhaust.

Yeah, I don't know but I saw that price while they were out of stock, and once some started showing up on eBay I saw they had them back in so jumped on it in case they go back up. And as I said, the 2.5" mandrel piping alone is worth it, swapping out the resonators and mufflers would still be cheaper than others. Or if you only want one piece, sell the other. The whole thing is cheaper than any other axle-back alone out there, save for something like CircuitWerks. Most are $500-700, and most full cat-backs are well over $1000.
