Default FS: 2008 IS350, Fully Loaded, Luxury, Black (only 2000 miles and asking $31,900)

Hello everyone,

I have a practically brand new 2008 IS350 (306 HP with 6 speed automatic & paddle shifters on the steering wheel) "Won one of Ward's 10 Best Engine Awards for the last three years in a row", fully loaded, luxury, black ext/grey int with only 2000 miles for sale. Some of the many features include: High resolution voice activated Navigation with push button screen climate control and stereo operation, bluetooth, backup camera, park assist on front and rear bumpers utilizing sonar technology, keyless lock/unlock and push botton start, Xeon headlights that turn with the steering wheel, headlamp washers, automatic rear sunshade, cooled and heated seats, premium stereo and many more. I had the dealer perform the first oil change early at 1,000 miles with Mobile 1 and the car has been babied. I get about 27 mpg on the highway and 19 in the city. Practically the entire factory warranty remains which is 48 months/50000 miles bumper to bumper and 72 months/70000 mile powertrain. Used retail Kelly Blue Book value is $38,655 but only asking $31,900 (with latest price drop). This car was awarded the Kelley Blue Book, best midsize resale value award.

I am in the military and have a busy schedule but will try to get some pictures up soon. I have been selected for a special college masters degree program and will be taking a pay cut so I have to unload this wonderful machine. I am located in Connecticut just off I-95 half-way between New York and Boston. Please PM if interested and thanks.

Scott

Just got back from a short deployment and didn't have a chance to get any pictures up, but will soon. The car still has only 2,100 miles on it and has been parked in a garage.

Hello,

The carpet is black and the seats are light gray perforated leather. Lexus did a nice job on the interior with the dual colors as they offset nicely. I think it looks better and more classy than just pure black on black.

Mikeeymikee,

I am working with the admins to get permission to post in the classified section of that site since my minimum total post count was not yet reached for classified access. I thought you mentioned that you were in the market for a new IS so I just PM'd you my car in case you might have been interested.

Take care,
Scott

Thanks for everyone that has PM'd with interest so far, I've had a few good offers however I really can not afford to drop the price any further.

Just some more tech tid bits on my car for anyone that is interested, I know I paid attention to these things before I purchased:

Build date: 4/2008
Build location: Tahara

My car is a late model 2008 build run and was built at the Tahara plant which is the same plant in Japan that exclusively builds the LS460. Some of the IS's are built at another plant in Japan where the ES350s are built. Supposedly only the most skilled Lexus craftsmen are assigned at the Tahara plant due to the LS460 being Lexus's flagship model and although quality is high at all Lexus factories, Tahara is supposed to be the best of the best.
