How many Lexus IS300s were made?

My parents sold me their 2006 Lexus IS300. It’s a great little car but the only one of these I’ve ever seen is the one my parents drove, so I was wondering if it was rare. How many Lexus IS300s were made?

The
Lexus IS300
is a great little sports car, but it’s probably more common than you think. Getting production numbers on this model isn’t easy, but we can safely assume since the IS300 was sold in North America from 2001 through 2020, that it plenty of Lexus IS 300 were made.
It may not be as prevalent as the
Honda Civic
, but that’s because it serves a different market. The IS300 was designed as an entry-level sports car with intentions to compete against the **
BMW 3 Series
.
If this car marks your entry into the world of luxury brand sports cars, you should be prepared for the ups and downs of
buying a sports car
. They’re a little more expensive to maintain, and your
car insurance
will likely cost more.
On the other hand, you’ve now got a luxury performance vehicle that, if well-maintained, will be a lot of fun to drive!
