Great cars! I had a 2002 IS200 sport and it was probably the best car i ever owned. Never missed a beat at all! Some say a bit under powered but you have to consider its in competition with the 320 which is not exactly quick either. In my opinion, its more than enough power once you get them going.

Things to look for are sticking cd players, corroded wheels, ball joints on hgiher mileage cars, make sure the timing belts been done at 100k, and check the little water pipe near the water pump fpr a pink crust (anti-freeze leaking) as these are prone to corroding after time. Other than that you cant go wrong mate. Oh, also check for uneven tyre wear, that would indicate worn ball joints with the geometry being out, crutial to the handling of these, which provided the geometry is set up right, is second to none!
