Where the Lexus IS350 starter is listed
We found priced Lexus IS350 starter listings at 141 salvage yards across 30 states. Florida supplies the most, with 73 listings (19% of the total) from 17 yards.

Market analysis
How much does a used Lexus IS350 starter cost?
Asking prices for a used Lexus IS350 starter are unusually spread out: the top listing asks about 9 times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 92% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $125.
Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $45, while 2022 tops the table at $179. Parts from 2006–2015 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 10 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Lexus IS350 sits 7% below the Ford F150 ($120), 11% below the Mercedes S Class ($125), and 31% above the Dodge Challenger ($85) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used starter: what to check
- Ask if the unit was bench-tested. Starters are cheap to test and yards that do will say so.
- Match the flywheel tooth count and mounting bolt pattern to your engine code.
- Check the solenoid connector style; mid-year changes are common.
- A remanufactured unit with warranty is sometimes only slightly more than used, so compare both.
