ABOUT ME:

Hello, and thank you for viewing my auction page.  Before bidding please review my feedback.  My last transaction on ebay left me with negative feedback that was completely false and unfair.  You will notice that it has been three years since I have listed anything on this site.  I urge you to review my feedback prior to that as a seller and make your bids based on that confidence.  I have never falsely advertised or misrepresented anything I have sold.  I am not out to cheat any one as I am also a consumer and expect the same treatment and respect.  Please bid only if you are a serious buyer. I welcome and encourage you to come view this item prior to bidding to validate my description.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me either by email or you may call me.  I also offer 100% refund on your deposit if the said item is falsely advertised. I received negative feedback on the last sale because the buyer had asked me to fix the A/C for him(which was stated in the sale as car not having a/c).  Out of good faith,I agreed and spent $800 out of my own pocket to replace the A/C in a $1400 20 year old vehicle.  He changed his mind and expected me to refund his $300 deposit. This landed me with the completely unfair and untrue negative feedback.  Please understand everything I list is as accurate as possible. I personally drive my vehicles and do not list them until I have had a a few weeks to "get to know them".  Anything missed might be a small scratch or minor ding that I did not see.  Bid with confidence as I am only trying to rebuild my positive reputation on ebay after the last incident.  I am a small dealer in Florida and I buy and sell vehicles that I have driven personally for a few weeks to ensure any issues are noticed and disclosed.  I DO NOT SELL JUNK VEHICLES.  If I end up with a junk vehicle, I send it straight to a dealer auction.  

BEFORE BIDDING:

PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.  I ENCOURAGE YOU TO COME LOOK AND TEST DRIVE THE CAR.  BRING A MECHANIC IF YOU WISH. I REQUIRE A $300 DEPOSIT FROM THE WINNER IMMEDIATELY AFTER AUCTION ENDS.  THIS IS NOT NEGOTIABLE.  IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO MY TERMS THEN PLEASE DO NOT BID. 



THIS IS MY OWN PERSONAL VEHICLE AND HAS BEEN IN MY FAMILY SINCE 2000.  MY FATHER PASSED IT DOWN TO MY SISTER AND THEN DOWN TO ME.

DESCRIPTION:

1997 Lexus ES300. This car has been in our family since 2000. We are the second owners and it has been wonderful. It has 217K miles but runs and drives excellent. The A/C is ice cold. Power windows, locks, mirrors, sunroof. Its definitely in below average shape in the cosmetics department. The paint has faded in some areas and it has multiple scratches/small dings. The front half has remained the original gold color while the rear of the vehicle has turned to a silver color.  very strange since the car has never been wrecked or painted. All original doors, hood, trunk lid, fenders  with original factory vin stickers.The interior is in fair shape. The leather is torn on the side of the driver seat where your back rubs up upon entry to the vehicle. The rear bench seat has a couple of tears. The driver side mirror is broken off but I do still have it to reattach. There is a slight valve tap thats unnoticeable unless you really listen closely.  The engine is mechanically sound, powerful and very smooth.  Engine and transmission are in excellent working order. Over all its a very reliable vehicle that will offer many more years to the next owner.

It's a V8 party! Lexus IS 500, Cadillac Escalade and more | Autoblog Podcast #667

Fri, Feb 26 2021

In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. It's all V8s all the time this week, starting with the Land Rover Defender V8 unveiling, Lexus IS 500 F Sport Performance debut and pricing announcement on the Jeep Wrangler 392. Next, they move on to what they've been driving. Spoiler alert: That means more V8 talk. Zac has been driving the Cadillac Escalade with the 6.2-liter V8 and BMW M550i with its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8. Greg and Zac take a pause from the V8 theme by discussing their shared time in our long-term Acura TLX. From this, they segue into a "Spend My Money" feature about garage lifts to finish the show.

The Lexus LC 500h has a four-speed auto and that's a good thing

Thu, Feb 18 2016

Lexus is sharing some powertrain details on the LC 500h ahead of the big hybrid coupe's debut in Geneva. Its new gas-electric setup strays from Toyota's tried-and-true system found in everything from the Prius to the Lexus GS. It's called the Multi Stage Hybrid System that's designed for performance vehicles, and it has an antiquated-sounding piece of equipment buried deep inside that's supposed to make it more enjoyable to drive. The basics: In the LC 500h, its first application, the Multi Stage Hybrid System will consist of a 3.5-liter V6, a hybrid transmission, and a lithium-ion battery pack. The hybrid transmission has an electric motor for motivation (and we're guessing a second for charging) and a four-speed automatic mounted to its rear, which either means inside or aft and in series. Why add ancient tech to a new hybrid system? Lexus says it preserves the connection between throttle input and engine speed that gets lost in a CVT. And while four seems like an insignificant sum in the face of nine- and 10-speed autos, remember that it is an infinite increase in gear count compared to CVT-packing hybrids. Toyota has been using versions of the Hybrid Synergy Drive system since the first Prius debuted in 1997, and the same system is sold under the Lexus Hybrid Drive banner in most of the luxury brand's offerings. These systems use what Toyota calls an e-CVT – two electric motors paired with a planetary gearset. This lets the engine and electric motors share the job of propelling the car – one motor handles charging of the battery and the other is primarily used to drive the wheels but can also recoup energy through regen. Like a conventional CVT, the planetary gearset arrangement allows the gas engine to run at its optimal engine speed when called upon for motivation and/or charging. But that doesn't make for the most exciting or familiar driving experience, as it affects both power delivery and the sound of the power being delivered. This is where the four-speed auto comes in. Based on the limited details Lexus has shared, our hunch is that the hybrid transmission will meld some form of the existing Lexus Hybrid Drive system with two more planetary gearsets, or the basic guts of a four-speed auto. This will provide the four fixed ratios and the feeling of actual shifting gears – because there will be actual gears shifting.

2013 Lexus ES earns five stars from NHTSA

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

The 2013 Lexus ES has earned a five-star crash rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The 2013 ES 350 and ES 300h hybrid earned the highest ratings in each of the government's crash evaluations, including overall driver safety, frontal crashes and overall side impacts, save one. The sedan only achieved a four-star rating in the NHTSA rollover protection test, but that fault wasn't enough to keep the vehicle from earning a five-star designation overall.
The announcement doesn't mention the recent Consumer Reports claim that the ES comes with a faulty emergency trunk release that can be easily broken in a panic situation.
As you may recall, the 2013 ES 350 carries an MSRP of $36,100, plus an $895 destination fee and offers buyers a 268-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 good for 248 pound-feet of torque, as well. The ES 300h, meanwhile, stickers at $38,850 plus the same destination charge.
