Seems like a steal. Hard to tell with such a shitty ad though. I question if it's real. Well worth a look at that price.

Damn thing pulls hard too. I found that the drivers cabin was somewhat snug but I liked that it felt very driver centric.
The 6MT IS250 is a decent car but its a Tacoma gearbox and super notchy and jerky. Also that 2.5 V6 has carbon buildup issues, but not the 3.5.
Damn shame Lexus didn't invest in a real sport 6 speed manual gearbox for the IS350...
