I rarely ever see IS300 wagons on the road, but the ones I do are all stock.

I always toyed with the idea of building a turbo IS wagon, but I've never seen any nicely modded ones to base my decision on.

Anyone know why these seem to be so rare? I think they're cool little cars.

Isn't there a IS wagon with a UZ swap?

 

[CodyK]

Because they are ugly as fuck and more questions?

 

[Dresden]

They were all automatics I believe.

I saw the second or maybe 3rd one I've ever seen in person yesterday and the same exact question popped in my head. Weird.

I found that response funny as hell too:lol::lol:

I am not fond of wagons, but I love Volvo wagons:agreed:

I guess a high HP turbo IS300 wagon with a manual would be a cool project.

I remember seeing a turbo Mitsu Diamante wagon in Cali a LONG time ago (talking ~14 or 15 years ago), I think this is it but when I saw it it didn't have this paint job:

I've seen one in Md at some carmeets that had a single I believe it was auto though.

Is there a reason why nobody swapped the drivetrain over and made an AWD IS300 sedan??

An AWD IS300 sedan with a turbo would be my ultimate DD.

That's a lot of customization. I always wanted an AWD/Manual Matrix and swap a 3s-gte into it. Now THAT would be a badass wagon.

Yea, I'll agree there def not the best looking cars but it would be fun to have one that ran 11's or 12's even.

Actually, I want to say that they were 60% 5-spd. They def came with the shitty W58 option. :lol:

Actually, you missed where I called it the "shitty W58" option.
