Thanks everyone... I appreciate the feedback... I am not going with the original one I posted. I"m actually haveing someone look for me and call me when and what they see at auctions ect... So, I can pick and choose which one I want, and hopefully get a good deal on year and price. Ya, I'd rather have a 2003 with 75k than a 2001 with 60k. We'll see what happens. One just popped up around me... 2003, 83k for $15,900, but by the pictures, it looked like it was maybe a little "ghetto'd" out......

Hi all, I would like to purchase an IS 300, and have read through what I can here on the forum on maintenance issues ect... However, if anyone would like to reiterate on any major issues or costly general maintenance issues you have seen or had done, that would be great. There are very few in the massachusetts area... I have one that is an '01 with 78k that I got a dealer down to $15k.... but that's it... still seems a little expensive for what I'm seeing. But otherwise Ihave to make a 200 mile trip to get anything else in NY, NJ, or PA. Which is no fun and extra expense. What should I be looking to pay? Does this sound inline... I've seen 100k '01'S FOR $10K at the lowest... and a 2003 with 72k for $16k.... '01 with 90k on ebay for buy now at $12,900...... Any advice would be appreciated! EDIT: I will be driving what I buy for at least 4 years and probably 60+k....
