2001 Lexus Is300 on 2040-cars

Thank you for looking at my auction! I’m selling my 2001 IS300 with no reserve. It has 171,000 miles and will climb slightly as I do drive the car a small amount every day. It is loaded with power windows, power door locks, ac, cruise control, heated leather and suede seats, power sunroof, factory HID headlights, and yellow fog lights. It is an automatic with a manual mode for use with shifters located on the steering wheel. It also has traction control and sport mode. I have the original owner’s manual and 2 sets of keys. Everything works and functions as it should; this car runs and drives really well!

Exterior:

The black paint is in really great shape, as it has been repainted at some point. The rear bumper has some scrapes under the paint, but they are not very severe. The driver’s side rocker panel has a small dent in the very lower portion that should be fairly visible in the photos. There are not any major dents or dings on the exterior and there is no rust whatsoever. The factory headlights have been repainted to look like JDM lights a shave the fog lights. The front grill is a TRD replica, but looks very nice and fits very well. There is a small rock chip in the windshield, but it was repaired a few years ago and hasn't grown or spread since. There are some small scrapes on the driver’s front corner, but other than that, they exterior is really awesome! I wash it regularly and revive a lot of compliments on it. No one believes it’s a 2001!

Interior:

The interior is in unbelievable shape; all of the interior features work as they should. The leather and suede seats show very little wear. There are no tears in the seats or carpets. The original floor mats are in wonderful shape as well. The head unit has been replaced with a Pioneer unit that has Bluetooth, iPod connectivity, and iPhone AppMode for GPS, Pandora, and other apps from your iPhone. There is a noise-cancelling microphone located to the left of the rear-view mirror and works very well. There aren't any loud rattles or squeaks and nothing seems to be broken.

Drivetrain:

The engine and transmission seem to be in perfect working order. The previous owner told me he had the major service done around 115,000 miles which should have included a full fluid “flush-and-fill”, the timing belt, tensioner, water pump, and thermostat. I can’t verify that this has been done, but I don’t have any reason to doubt it. It idles nice and smooth and shifts through the gears swiftly and smoothly. I've changed the oil recently and it doesn't use a drop. It doesn't leak anything either. There is a check engine light on, and when checked out at the dealership, they told me it was for the oxygen sensor in “bank 1”. I never got around to replacing it, but they are about $75 online. It’s very clean underneath, especially for its age. The wheels are stock, but they have been painted satin black. The tires are new Bridgestone Blizzaks; the fronts are 205-45-17 and the rears are 215-45-17. This wasn't on purpose, but the difference is not visibly noticeable at all. These tires are amazing in bad weather! I’ll never drive a car through the winter without them again!

Again, thank you for looking at my car! I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere and it has been a champ in the sub-zero conditions that Indiana has suffered through this winter. If you have any questions about this car, feel free to let me know. I’m happy to answer anything I can for you or provide additional photos. I've done my best to describe this car openly and honestly. It I've left anything out, it wasn't on purpose and I will not be held responsible. This is a used car and is being sold as-is, where-is. I reserve the right to end the auction early, as I do have it for sale locally as well. Thank you!
