Do you like the wind in your hair and that feeling of freedom whenever you want?

You REALLY need this sapphire blue Lexus is250 hard top convertible.

Imagine skirting sweeping country bends or cruising the city with the top down. Glorious!

The top comes off in 22 seconds so you can enjoy it almost instantly. Amazing. The car has a stance that looks great with the roof up and down. What’s not to like?

Feels like you are almost doing something illegal driving around without a helmet on.

Every time I drove it I couldn’t help but smile.

I never thought I’d sell this car as it’s been an absolute joy.

Everything works (it’s a Lexus).

Amazing reliability, decent economy.

Always fun to drive. Comfortable and yet classically refined and powerful.

No pets in it ever, non smoker, second owner since new.

It’s been driven caringly as I’m not a speed racer. I just like getting there comfy and in style.

Tyres are good.

FULL SERVICE HISTORY only with Lexus.

Last major service completed in the last month. Only filled with 98 each time.

Ample boot space with the roof up and the rear seats are decent for a convertible. Seats 4 no issue.

Premium sound system and navigation maps are last years having been updated.

Car will have a roadworthy when serious buying negotiations happen.

These currently sell for between 19 to 26.4k at this age and this many kilometres (180xxx) according to carsguide.

I’m opening my sale at $22,297 Also open to reasonable offers.

I will take an extra 5% off agreed price if you pay with BTC.

This car lives on Tamoborine Mountain and can be shown at Spring Hill Brisbane City (where I work if convenient).

I’ve listed it at a reasonable price and yet I’m open to offers.

Let’s talk more. Cars are selling fast at the moment so taking action is recommended.

CUSTOM PLATES WILL BE REMOVED AND REPLACED WITH STANDARD QLD PLATES BEFORE SALE IS FINALISED AND ARE NOT PART OF SALE

Like the GS Lexus, the IS series walked away from inline six-cylinder power when the latest version was launched in November 2005. Today’s IS Lexus uses a 2.5-litre V6 giving more power and, importantly, more torque than the 2.0-litre IS200. With 153kW and 252Nm, and driving through a six-speed auto gearbox, the engine has enough power to cope in the heavier hardtop IS250C convertible version. The IS250C offers the best of both worlds by morphing quickly to either open or closed mode without sacrificing any of the charms of the four-door sedan IS models.
