Why are they so bad? Yet is300 is gold?

A number of reasons about that platform:

-The chief engineer of the first gen IS was Nobuaki Katayama who worked on the original 86
-The JCE10/15 / GXE10 / SXE10 platform had double wishbone suspension front and back (no longer the case after the first gen)
-IS300 has a variant of the 2JZ engine (but no, it's not the Supra NA engine which was the non-VVTi version)
-Heritage - this is the platform that kickstarted Toyota's Gazoo Racing efforts: https://www.reddit.com/r/IS300/comments/kbsbs4/for_some_motorsport_cred_the_altezzais300_is/

This car does have its flaws but it comes from a period when Toyota overengineered their cars and you are able to drive it to its limit day in and day out without putting a big dent on your wallet as long as you are willing to maintain it. And driving it feels nostalgic.

I have been putting Cusco parts on mine recently because of the Yen dropping and it reacts so well to suspension modifications.

Exactly this. Besides the... linear nature of the inline-6 (re: boring powerband) the suspension is the biggest problem on our IS300 we got here... even just the simple addition of 1" lowering springs all around completely changes the car.

Someone who shouldn't have at Lexus won an argument when that car was built for NA about how soft the suspension needed to be and it's unfortunate. When it came out, every review complained about how it fell short of the E46 because of slightly soft/aloof handling characteristics.

I kept having this thought in my head - with the way EVs are going, how long will Toyota keep making parts for our cars and how long are we able to keep these cars realistically?

It may become a luxury to drive an ICE car in the future with less and less gas stations around.

Around when my Celica hit 25 years old is when some of the model-specific OEM parts started to become NLA (ie bumpers, hoods, tail lights, etc). Things like bolts and relays and stuff that's shared with other, newer models is still around no problem.

Normal is like less than 3-5000km a year. Anything more is considered high.

A 458 with over 30,000km would be quite challenging to sell even if the DEALERSHIP only service history is complete.

This was on sale in Langley a couple of weeks ago for just under $7,000. The seller was nice and thorough in explaining the work he did to it which made it a pretty good deal. I was going to look at it but he told me it sold.

So to clarify you have to go through the hassle of building up a relationship with the worlds whiniest car manufacturer just so you can spend a fortune to buy a car that's so badly made you have to spend another fortune to have them maintain it while you don't actually drive it. If you do drive it, or have anyone else fix it, it's worthless.

Yes it’s stock, yes it’s low mileage. But it’s an automatic narrow body base model naturally aspirated Impreza. Literally no one wants that car. And in the ad he admits it was a trade in, so they probably offered grandma $3000 for it. And he’s asking 17k lol

A bit of a rant post but posting this POS so ppl dont waste their time with this junk.

This thing was originally posted for $3900. A Supercharged A4 3.0 with a 6spd manual already on winter tires for $3900? Fuck, its cheaper than buying winter tires and wheels for my car! So why not, i went to go check it out.

I get in, first thing i notice is the odometer reading near 290k, not 260k.
Inside reeked like weed, used matches piled up in ashtray. Coolant level light comes on lol. Supercharger pulley also squeels like shit, owner brings a spray and sprays the belt and says its fine now.

Cars is also a rebuilt title which is NOT mentioned, He just brushes off lightly when asked about it.
Says he owned it for 3 years but the invoice he provides shows a completely different owner literally early this year. hand brake doesnt work.

Some douchebag kid who probably doesnt have a job. Looked like he just woke up out of bed at 12pm. Asking me why im so hard with the car when all i did was slight pulls and a downshift on a test run to make sure the thing doesnt fall apart.

Shortly after he jacked up the price by $100, and now at 4g lol.

Some people are just nuts on Craigslist

I use the site quote often, and have endless questionable experiences on there from cars, free shit, to basic items.

One of my cars that I put up for sale, some guy kept flagging my ad, posting counter ads, and sending me emails that I need to stop scamming people with my broken car. Supposably it had 0 brake life, failed power steering, and other issues that all did not apply to my car.
I think he thought, I was the previous owner of the car, and probably had some beef with him, or maybe that particular car was flipped for a profit from the previous owner or something

Another time I posted a car for cheap due to space issues, some lady wanted the car bad, but I clearly listed first come first serve in the ad.
She ended up flagging all my ads, posting counter ads, saying it has problems etc, and sending proud emails to me that I will never sell the car because she will just keep flagging them. And this lady was actually nuts, she literally monitored CL every 10 minutes for HOURS, just to prove her point.
I replied thank you for letting me repost the ad, because each time I repost it, it comes up as the first link on the search.
That was a classic

This one isn't really associated with nuts people, more of a wtf:
I had a D150 for sale, guy says he wants to test drive it, no problem, come on by
Dude shows up, meet him on the street, and I say "hey man, here for the D150?"
He replies: uhhhhhh I thought It was a b m w

At this point I realize he is half baked and dead serious about it being a bmw, and I'm probably gonna waste my time like most CL interactions

I reply: uhhhhh no, it's a Dodge truck
Him: well, ummm, alright, let's go for a drive anyways

He takes it for a spin around the block, and says "pretty sweeeet, I think il take it"

At this point I'm even more dump founded, story cut short that was the FASTEST sale of a car I ever had.

I hate seeing a bunch of junk that doesn't match what I put in, then a week later on the main page something that didn't show up, but should've, is sitting there, posted a month ago. wtf.

I have always always always sold cars on CL... never on FB Marketplace... but there's been a lull the last 6-8 months where I wasn't selling anything and I suddenly have to sell a couple cars, I tried CL and got literally nothing. LIkewise I used to like selling cars on Seattle Craigslist because Americans pay more for cars and I'm used to selling to them now, it's pretty easy, so I tried that and not even 1 email after paying the $5usd to list a car there.

FB Marketplace I got like 30 inquiries/offers and a couple of serious buyers.

Seems the landscape has changed...

I notice the same. Hardly any inquiries through CL. FB is loaded with the automated "is this still available" and when you answer it, they never respond back.

I slap big stuff like cars up everywhere. Craigslist, Kijiji, Facebook, and Castanet (local site). When I sold vehicles for myself and family a couple years back I sold one through CL, one through FB and one through Castanet so it seems kinda hit and miss.

I’m kinda long out of the game from selling stuff. The last few things were wheels (5x108) on Craigslist but I’ve never had an issue selling those mostly because it’s a rare bolt pattern, people always on the hunt.

When it comes to buying stuff, almost every single thing I’ve had to get for my STi has been on marketplace. I don’t have fb so it’s always a dance of getting a friend to message and text me etc. but wheels, exhausts, downpipes, bumpers etc all on marketplace

Dealing with FB:

1) Is it available? Is it available? Is it available? Is it available?
2) Ad says the price is firm. "Will you take XX?"
3) "My budget is only XXX." Like that's my problem
4) "I have to drive all the way from XXX." Again, that's my problem
5) Ad says located in XXX, pick up only. "Where are you located?"
6) "Give you XXX Cash." Like I was going to take KFC as payment
7) Can you deliver?
8) "Give you 50% of asking."
9) "Why do you want to meet at the bank?" Cuz I want to scam you for $30, what do you think?

95% of my responses are "Did you read the ad?"

I swear FB brings all the idiots to the yard if you're selling anything under $100. If your item is cheap, just donate it or throw it into the Fraser River (I kid), but selling cheap items brings out the sub 80IQ ppl with un-supervised internet access. Anything over $200, everything is super easy to deal with.

Pro tip, never go out of your way more than 5mins to meet for an exchange.

I've had three assholes pull the "OH GEE, I have no idea where the 5/10/20 dollars went; it was in my pocket!" I just stand there and let them put on a show, and if they stick to the story I say "Oh that's too bad", and get in my car. The cash always showed up in the pocket they were just looking in. Riddle me that.

I drove 3mins to get here, you drove for 45mins. I'm not playing this game. I stood there for 5mins one time watching an asshole pretend they misplaced 3 dollars.

Haha the car I was selling and pulled the ad for because I was too busy... I was asking $8000 and I lost count how many "Will you take $6000" messages I got.

It's actually not a horrible offer to be honest, could probably negotiate something, but who offers 75% on a car they've never seen? I've been in the game long enough to know they get you to agree to $6k and then they actaully come to look at it and they start picking things apart on the car and go lower because $6k is the new ceiling price to them... so I just keep writing back "I only take offers in person from people who have seen the car" and don't hear back.

Also had one Chad who, when I looked at this profile has a Hyundai Veloster with the vents painted blue inside he sent me the "$8k for that trash? lol" type message in the middle of it hahaha ok bud.

ngl, a lot of those msgs are from car sales.

Because we also get paid for buy-ins, ofc they have to be a good buy

so what a lot of sales do and mass msg all the "normal cars" like civics/accords/altimas/corollas/mazda3s with a somewhat unrealistic offer

all they need is 1 desberate mofo who has had the ad on for the last 30 days and are just wanting to get rid of the car that day....etc etc...

I dislike k20 swapped dc2 type Rs. I feel like it just ruins the whole chassis from a purist point of view. K swaps should be done on dc4s or GSRs, but that’s just me lol.

Unless its a rebuilt or theft recovery. From a drivers point of view K20 would bring the chassis to life. From a collector/enthusiast point of view it would make the car less desirable.

I bought a 2005 Corolla XRS brand new from Downtown Toyota. Had the same 2ZZ-GE except detuned on horsepower but I think had some better low end torque.

That 2ZZ-GE sounded great, but coming from a smaller 6 cyl engine the lack of torque on the 1.8 was a real "wtf did I get into" moment lol. I eventually got used to slipping the clutch perfectly and could accelerate pretty decently. Except off the line I'd get whipped by a Dodge Caravan.

Yep, and places like Hanger 111 get 280-300 out of that little 1.8. Torque isn't all that special but it does spin up to 8.5k RPM.

The K20a may be a better motor, but (and I could be very wrong here) I thought I heard it didn't take forced induction as well as the 2zz. Also, I think Lotus went with the Toyota because it was slight cheaper, and there relationship with them was much better at the time than it was with Honda.

I was scammed by a broker one time on my GSXR. I didn't notice until the following year they set a crazy high declared value that I paid for coverage on. I asked about it when I went to renew, they kept passing the buck, contact that agent.

ICBC doesn’t give valuations like that, he was probably talking to someone who works there who was talking completely out of their ass and now he’s taking it as gospel instead of just clicking the search button on a couple auction sites for a reality check.

How are agents at the broker getting values these days? Is it not ICBC and the blue book or whatever the fuck they use?

The book only goes back to 2000, so for anything prior to that you can literally say you paid anything you want. It's honesty policy for older vehicles.

I think the new black wings are actually above competitors according to all the reviews I’ve read.

Ct4 better than m3. Ct5 better than m5
