Do cars with auto-boxes come fitted with cruise control as standard?
How much can I expect for my 2003/03 IS 200 SE manual with 7k miles. How much extra should I expect to pay for a similar age/mileage SE auto?

I am ideally looking for a crossover to an auto for little to no money at all. For an IS200 I suppose that will mean similar age but 15-20k miles OR similar mileage but upto 6 months older.
What are your opinions on getting a late 2001/02 car instead with reasonable mileage (upto 50k) and pocketing a 4-5k difference?

Autos are more new, but are cheaper second hand.
So you shouldnt loose too much (if anything).

remember that if a dealer is buying your car he will be looking to add his profit on the price he offers
where as when the dealer is selling you a car he will have put his profit on
there could be a difference of quite a few pennies !!

Shocking px on my car. Offered 14.5 for mine (6.8k)and dealers want in the region of 17.5-18.5 for an late 52/early 03 auto under 15k.
