First off, please only post if you have something helpful to contribute, or are interested, no BS or lowballing please. I know I don't have a ton of posts here, but I'm extremely active on the IS forums, and can give people contacts of the many people I've sold things to and purchased things from.
As some of you know, I've been planning to sell my car later this summer for a while now. My wife and I are looking at moving and buying a new house, and it's time for me to move on. I'm listing it up now because I'm guessing it will take quite a while to sell, and I'm in no hurry.
It's a 2004 GGP that I purchased brand new back in 04. It is a 5spd, with every option possible (nav, lsd, leather, etc)....a very rare combo!
It has been treated very well, and stored during the winters. People that know me can easily vouch for me and the quality of this car. I never beat on it, tracked it, raced it, or did anything that could have been damaging.
The car made 392hp & 387tq at 12lbs, but it was driven at 10lbs at 366hp & 360tq on the Haltech. I just switched to the full AEM EMS standalone a couple months back now too.
The attention to detail on this car is amazing, I have cleanly modified almost every area of this car. It won Best Lexus in my division at HIN Chicago this year. It is also featured in a 5 page article in Modified Magazine for July 2009: http://my.is/forums/f87/modified-mag...ck-out-390418/).

Please Stop wasting this guys time with Low Low offers! and show alittle Respect. Obviously the seller is not broke and doesn't need to dump the car..
A Fully loaded STOCK '04 IS300 -- Trade-in value is $15K.. Please, if i owned this car i wouldn't even grace you alls offer with an answer.
The car STOCK retails for almost $20K so with his upgrades and magazine coverage. I would not insult someone with that kind of BS LOW OFFER like that..
I'm considering the car myself but i already have one garage queen and i need to buy a clean daily driver or i already would have taken this car..
Bump for an awesome example of what IS300's should look like..

Thanks. you are correct, I am in absolutely no hurry to sell it. I think this is a fair price for what you'd be getting. I will consider offers, but only reasonable ones.
I'd much rather sell it to someone who appreciates the time and money that went into it, and will take good care of it. Lowballing only shows that you don't know what you are talking about, and you likely wouldn't be someone I'd want to sell it to anyways.
anyways. whats wrong with 2 garage queens? or this could be a damn nice daily driver....

I should have this car at HIN Chicago on July 11th as well (if it doesn't sell before then).
So people can take a look at it there if they are around, or drive it home if they want to buy it there....
