I've been reading through the forums a bit and like what I see. You guys have a lot of information on these cars. The 2002 IS 300 I'm looking at buying is listed for $7900, it has 175,000 miles on it. I know the guy so he said he would let it go for $6000. My only concern was the high mileage. He said the inline 6's can go up to 500,000 miles... I wanted to check in with you all and see what kind of experiences you've had. How high are the miles on your cars? What's the highest you've seen on a IS 300? I'm not going to race it or get rims and all that sweet stuff, this would just be a replacement for my fiancee's Honda accord I just wrecked. The main reason why I would get this is because he said it would last a long time. I could get a Honda accord that I could get 150,000 miles out of before it dies, or I could get this, for maybe a grand more, and get... 200,000+ more miles??? Let me know if there is something I'm missing here PLEASE. Also, even though the engine would last super long, would there be other huge maintenance costs? Transmission, etc? Thank you so much for your insight!
