Hello everyone,

Due to many life circumstances with health, finances and etc. I am considering selling my 2004 Lexus IS300. She has been with me since ONE mile on the odometer. It was originally purchased at Longo Lexus in El Monte, California.

Total vehicle mileage is 52,000. There has been NO body work, NO accidents, NO warranty issues except for a bad starter and faulty CD player.

Car has FACTORY EXTENDED WARRANTY UNTIL 90,000 MILES or 2011.

Car is going to be sold AS IS!! NOTHING WILL BE PARTED OUT and it is completely out of the question. The car is heavily and meticulously modified and every bolt turned on this car has been done so with the utmost care.

ORIGINAL equipment that came with car:
-Full Black Leather Interior
-Rear Trunk Spoiler
-Moonroof, Memory Seats and so on. Car has everything but navigation.

Now for the modifications....

Well, that pretty much covers most of it. I may have missed a few minor things here and there. But for the most part, the car has a brand new transmission (W58) A brand new Exedy/Daikin clutch, brand new brakes, tires have about 65% EVENLY worn tread remaining.

The interior of the car is pretty much flawless and has no defects or damage. Its not covered up in greasy dash treatments and has the stock flat/semi-gloss clean finish. The leather has been conditioned every 4 months and is supple and soft with minimal wrinkles. The backseats look like nobody has ever sat in them.

The exterior of the car is extremely clean. I used to be a professional detailer, and carry the same discipline of having flawless paint in my blood! The car has zero swirl marks, damage and so on. Its a great looking car, especially for being 4.5 years old.

Like I mentioned in the beginning of this post, life has been tough with health, finances and some other factors that are contributing to this impulse decision. I do not want to sell this car by any means, but sometimes a person has to cut some losses short.

My asking price for this car is $35,000 dollars out the door.

Here are a couple pictures, but I am pretty sure you all know what she looks like already..





































Thank you for looking.

No, the engine and suspension are not covered under warranty.

The motor will not blow. This car has been tuned by me and its rock solid. I am willing, and have put my name on the line for the workmanship in this and every car I have ever completed.

The car has ZERO check engine lights, has all Lexus functionality and amenities, isn't obnoxiously loud and raspy and is rock solid with no rattles.

Port work and everything else has been done by me. MRF Fabrications is my company. This is my personal car.

The car on 91 octane with no auxilary injection or race fuel or any type of additive with conservative timing and an AFR of 11.4 is a 520RWHP car. On 100 octane and higher boost levels, the turbo tops out around 25 PSI and 710 RWHP.

The Head is a fully race built and polished head with Supertech Titanium valve springs, Seats and Locks with custom lightweight micropolished valves.

Intake manifold, TB and everything is of course port matched to optimize airflow and velocity. Throttle and boost response is excellent with STOCK drivability.

The car is awesome, but unfortunately my health and finances will not allow me to keep it by any means.

I am very flexible on the price and am willing to sell the car at $29,500. I think thats a pretty good deal.
