The Lexus IS300 was the first design of the Lexus IS. It is available as a 5-door hatchback/wagon and a 4-door sedan. It is considered as a tuner (as in Tuner, Muscle, Exotic) which makes the IS unique because Lexus cars are usually exotic. From 1998 to 1999 it was the car of the year. It is no longer manufactured because of the newer models. It can be bought on the internet or at a used car lot. It doesn't have the extreme luxury of other Lexus's. It may not be the fastest car in the world but the IS300 and are popular with lower-class tuners. When Lexus designed the IS300 at the same time they also made the IS200. The IS200 was exactly the same as the IS300 except it had a 2-litre petrol tank while the IS300 had a 3-litre petrol tank (this is how all the IS Lexus's got there name). Also the IS200 wasn't sold in the USA.
The Is300 was produced in the USA from 2001 to 2005. After 2005 it was then called the Is350. There was no IS 200. In japan it was called the Rs200. There were various models produced in japan. There was only one trim available in the US market. The Is300 also came with the non aspirated version of the legendary Toyota Supra engine. The 2JZ-GE.
