Frequently asked questions

Why do 2005 Lexus IS prices range from $5,356 to $21,794?

Is $12,922 a good price for a 2005 Lexus IS?

$12,922 is the market average as of August 10, 2026. Anything meaningfully below the $12,815 median is priced to move — but always compare within the same trim and mileage band, since those two factors drive most of the spread.

How we calculate these prices

We track 11 active listings for this vehicle across dealer sites nationwide, last refreshed August 10, 2026. Average and median are computed from real asking prices on live listings. We exclude the top and bottom 2% of prices to remove data errors, salvage titles, and monthly-payment figures posted as if they were sale prices. Prices reflect dealer asking prices — not final sale prices — and exclude taxes, fees, and incentives. Trim and mileage move the price more than any other factor; see the breakdowns above.
