If you want to make a deal, pick up the phone

and make your serious offer.

I don't respond messages such as:

"What's your reserve?"

"What is your bottom line?"

"What's the least you'll take?"

"What is your bottom dollar?"

"Do you have a Buy-it-Now?"

"What's it take to buy it?"

"What is your asking price?"

I will not email you a figure but we can talk about it.

Intelligent buyers know exactly what this car is worth to them and have researched real market values like we did when we bought the car. IS300 Sportcross's are quite rare and pricing we've seen for examples like this will range between nine and twelve thousand dollars. Finding one for less that is in this condition is like hoping for a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Real Simple, it's your offer that may buy this car. You need to tell me what you are willing to offer just like any other auction. 

Also, if yours is among the hundreds of emails I get with any of the questions above, I will immediately assume that you(r):

• have not taken time to read the listing and just an online tire kicker

• have zero intent to purchase and just like "seeing" what sellers think their cars are worth. Publications do that real well.

• are clueless about relevant market values because your have spent time really looking into valid information.

• forthcoming "offer" will be completely detached from reality like most initial eBay bidders. 

27 years in the business has proven beyond all doubt that serious buyers read every line, look at every picture, research well enough on their own and feel confident making a real offer.  99% of the time, I accept those offers without haggle.  Try me.

THE ONLY WAY TO WORK YOUR DEAL IS TO CALL ME!

My vehicles are so unique and so rare,

knowing how much they will or should sell for is nearly impossible.

That is the magic of an eBay auction . . . serious buyers making a serious offer.

If I'm in the black, you will own this vehicle!

One owner, 2002 Lexus IS300 SportCross wagon.  133,714 freeway miles, lifetime Henderson, Nevada vehicle.  Inline 6-cylinder engine, rear wheel drive, Xenon HID headlamps, premium audio with 6-disc in-dash changer, 8-way power driver and passenger seats, moon roof, chronograph instruments, chrome shift knob, Leather/Ecsaine Trim Package slotted/drilled rotors, red painted calipers, strut tower brace, white side marker lights, headlamp brows and dark tint.  Starts, runs and drives like new.  A/C blows cold, stereo sounds awesome and the car is an absolute gem to own and drive.  Looks and functions like a vehicle with half as many miles . . .

Rare quality condition for sure and this IS300 actually is rare.  Only 1,958 built for '02 and from 2002 to 2005 (years available) total SportCross production for all four years was just 3,078.  That means this bad boy will be worth like, a million dollars at some point in the future.  Probably several million . . .

No doubt about it, wagons are hot these days.  Body seams and panel alignment are tight, consistent and typically Lexus . . .

The SportCross's overall length is nearly identical to the sedan version but offers a lot more room in back and a lot more loading options . . .

Besides a much sleeker shape than the sedan, the SportCross comes with staggered wheels.  The sedan has 7-inch wide wheels front and rear but the wagon's rear wheels are a half inch wider, with one size up tires. (rear: 225/45ZR17 front: 215/45ZR17)

With a silky smooth inline six, sequential Sport Shift 5-speed automatic and rear wheel drive, the first generation IS was much desired when new and has been strong in the used car market ever since.  The SportCross brings a lot to the table (HIDs, killer audio, lots of seating/loading configurations) but another reason people want these so much is actually quite simple.  It's a Lexus; designed-in quality and built right in the first place.  This particular 2002 Lexus IS300 SportCross is a respected, high quality vehicle having just one previous owner that (obviously) loved and cared for their ride.  Never been in an accident, great body, outstanding paint, gorgeous interior and mechanical reliability.  You should buy it . . .

My wife and I took this little wagon to Utah a day after it arrived at our facility.  It was then my driver for about two weeks.  Besides impeccable reliability and near functional perfection during that time, some important fundamentals stood out and I think these things separate the IS300 from the rest of the herd.  Handling and balance of this car reminded me again and again why top sport sedans (and wagons!) are proper front engine/rear wheel drive and unlike most 6-cylinders these days, the IS300 is an inline six.  Why does that matter?  It mostly doesn't except it seems smoother, sounds better and I like how it feels.  The IS300 is surprisingly up-market, too.  When I turned on the lights, ice-white illumination told me this bad boy had HIDs.  Pretty cool, and the chronograph cluster was fun too.  Both seats are 8-way power adjustable, the optional stereo is strong and the air blew ice-cold the whole time.  I'll admit having small concern about taking an unknown vehicle on a trip so soon after getting it.  My past experience with the brand should have set my mind at ease.   Every Lexus I've ever known has been a superbly built car and this gem was no different.  It simply does not look, feel, drive or function like a "high mileage" vehicle in any way.  The above pictures are Saturday morning a few hours after our very late arrival the night before  The little wagon performed marvelously and we had a great time.  Made all the better with a comfortable car that had enough room for an occasional relative, and we didn't mind being seen in it.

Driver and passenger frontal/side airbags, 8-way power driver and passenger seats, automatic air conditioning, tilt steering, 240-watt/9-speaker premium audio with 6-disc in-dash changer, amplifier and equalizer.  All of it in great condition . . .

This SportCross has the Leather/Ecsaine Trim package which includes the suede seat inserts, power passenger seat and HomeLink universal transceiver . . .

The back offers lot of loading configurations and there's even a "hidden" covered storage bin just behind the rear seat.  Under everything is a full size spare tire mounted on a matching alloy wheel . . .

133,714 is actually extremely low mileage for a 12-year old car.  With barely 11k a year, this Lexus is well below industry average . . .
