the is300 was purchased in 2001. i purchased one of the first vehicles to come stateside. it was a great car and offered adequate room, excellent power, handling and brakes, the fuel economy was excellent. the one drawback was because of the compact size of the car, it did not have the room for lots of passengers or luggage... but that is not what this car was built for anyways.May 28, 2014

I guess I have to write something here. I have owned this car for over 4 years now, done nothing to it in regards to repairs, and I am not necessarily an easy driver! Lots of fun do drive, and looks good doing it. The gas mileage and premium gas are it only downers...I'd buy another!Sep 04, 2008

I loved the inteior,good for longer trips. heated seat, ALL leather power windows, sunroof power everything. out of the car, it had good acceleration, good on gas Triptronic push button gears. very relible, nice midnight blue color, straight 3L straight 6. tail lights a unique but not asain rice rocket look. Dont like, one thing...i wish the seat were A/C, not just heated.Aug 07, 2008

Great little car, not the largest car in its class, but is quite comfortable. Decently equipped for the price. Sporty, Rear wheel drive. Good factory sound system. Gas mileage is mediocre at best (~22mpg) Decent power under the hood, more than enough to get you around (3.0L I6 215hp) But could be better, underpowered in its class, but makes up in nimble handling.

The car picks up pretty quick. It is faster than that of many other cars on the road. The braking is also pretty good good. The turning circle isn't bad although I still wished it was better. My car is unique because I added tint to the windows and a blue AEM short ram intake under the hood. I hope to have more upgrades to come in the future!Jun 30, 2008

Every thing is exceptional, the interior and the exterior. The only thing I don't like is the cd player.May 17, 2008

I love it! I bought it last fall! The car handles great, and with a V6, is very fuel efficient but still has that get up we are all looking for! Apr 30, 2008

actually it was a 99 IS 200 but they didn't list the option. Only kept in 3 months, good spec, but no performance.Nov 27, 2007
