New top-of-the-line econobox or used entry-level luxury?

There's 4 Lexus dealers in my area, and between all of them, '14 IS is the oldest they have.

I found a few at other dealers, and it's a similar story. Checked carfax.com and it's pretty similar, but with a few older models with reported accidents.

Why would I be mad that you fucked up?

Why restrict your search to Lexus dealers? There's plenty of older IS 350's on the used market.

Carfax is an aggregate of dealers, so it shows the inventory of every dealership in my area.

How far are you willing to travel? You can always just wait a bit for something to come around. I picked up my IS 350 for $16k with 72,000 miles. One year later and it still runs great.

I could smoke the fuck out this in my 1994 EG hatch

How dare you sir. Please list your mods.

OP here.
How about a used 2016 Mazda 3 Grand Touring?
52k miles.
$15k.

Btw... I just searched within 100 miles of my area and only turned up three. I have no idea where the fuck they all went lol. There were way more when I was shopping for mine.

That is an impressive amount of miles for a 2016...but I have a 3 and 6 GT and they are great cars.

No such thing, you fucking nigger
An IS250 is an econobox and it should be called an econobox, you CarMax shopping bitch.

I'd try lowering it to $11000 because of the miles.

How is it an econobox if it struggles to get 30 hwy? What exactly is your criteria for being an econobox?

This. I'm in the market for a '11-'13 IS250/IS350 and there are barely any around. looking to spend around $16-18k.

>$16-18k
At that price, I would really go for the 350. Might need to look in the 07-10 range though.

Pro tip:
Avoid '06 so you can have the ability to turn off traction/stability control. They added a switch in '07.

>no such thing as entry level luxury
are you fucking retarded

You can get an E550 or v8 jag xf for around 25k. You'd be retarded to get the badgewhore tier lexus.

>You'd be retarded to get the badgewhore tier lexus
Except that it actually runs. That's nice.

e550s are pretty reliable. mechanically jag xfs are reliable but sometimes the keyless go system acts up

>calls a reasonable Lexus purchase "badgewhore tier"
>suggests what at that price would be a well-used money pit that you're getting just for the badge

really activates the almonds

The Lexus is going to be nice as fuck.

Since you were already looking at Civics and Mazda 3's I'm assuming that speed isn't your primary concern. In that case, look for a current generation IS250.

However if fun is what you're after, go buy a 2015 or 2016 WRX - easily doable for $25k - you could probably manage a 2016 Premium for that price since orders are starting for the 2018's in short order.

The 250 specifically is badgewhore tier. A 350 is ok.
