1997 Lexus Es300 Base Sedan 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Arlington, Virginia, United States
|
1997 Lexus ES 300 Luxury Sedan, V6, 148k miles.
This is our personal vehicle that was primarily driven by my wife as her daily commute vehicle. The car has 148k miles on it (all actual), and can be inspected by prior appointment. I can be reached at (571) 399-5510 for any questions. It has served us well, and and am sad to see it go. It is a good car, and has very minor issues that are easy fixes, and will continue to serve the new owner well. I don't have the time or patience at present to get the issues fixed, thus selling it AS-IS. The car has had regular tune-ups, had its timing belt changed, brakes changed - basically, we have been particular in maintaining the vehicle and it shows. Some of its known issues are: 1. Loose strut or bushing on front passenger side, which makes a knock noise at times (when car goes over a bump). 2. Front Passenger side window switch is faulty on door, but operate-able from drivers door master window switch. Needs switch changed out only. 3. Check engine light does come on sometimes - had it checked, and it is most likely the front catalytic converter. Light if off at present. 4. Front passenger side turn signal gets loose at times (broken tab). I have been too lazy to fix it or switch out the turn signal. It works fine as-is. 5. Crack on rear drivers side turn signal. It is a cosmetic issue, and turn signal functions perfectly. 6. Side scratches on passenger side (car got side swiped against parking garage pillar) - cosmetic issue, which needs scratch paint touch up. Doors function perfectly. 7. Scratches and paint peeled off on rear bumper and side mirrors. I had touched them up with touch-up paint. Cosmetic issue, as no functionality is affected. 8. The Carfax/AutoCheck shows an odometer discrepancy, which is incorrect. It was a clerical error when the car was registered and I never went back and had the mileage corrected (I had guessed the mileage when registering the car, as the vehicle was in a different state, and I was in a rush to get the vehicle registered). 9. Windscreen has a small crack at the base of the drivers side (see photo). This does not impact the view and the car legally passed inspection in this state every year. In addition, there are 2 small starts which were minor chips that were fixed. They dont impact vision either, and I am only sharing for full disclosure purposes. 10. Minor rust around windscreen (top and drivers side edge). I have tried to fix this, but did a sloppy job. Does not impact functionality. I will give a 15 day warranty on the engine and transmission to put to rest any concerns the buyer may have. I trust this car to drive well and provide many years of great service to its new owner. Please remember that this is a 10+ year old car, and has been driven daily in the city, thus will have scratches and minor issues, but runs beautifully. We have performed regular oil changes, and other servicing. I had all its service records, but put them in some box when we moved, and I cant find them. You are welcome to have the car checked out. Over 80 photos are posted here: link Additionally, I can email the CarFax report to you if you want (it should be available for free on this listing also), but email me if you still want it. Some basic rules for this eBay sale: 1. If you have less than a rating of 10, I WILL delete your bid, unless you have contacted me beforehand and confirmed your contact info and intent to bid on this car. I've been around eBay many years to have experienced the frustrations of non-serious buyers. 2. This is a used car and I have posted more than 80 photos of the car, and have done my best to share all the facts. If you are going to be a super nit-picky buyer, please go to the local Lexus dealership and buy a pre-owned certified vehicle or a new vehicle; your hard earned $$$ will be well spent there. I honestly don't have the time to deal with buyers who are too afraid to buy a good deal on eBay or locally, and I don't have the time or the patience for someone to waste my and your own time. 3. You are welcome to look at the car in person in Arlington VA. I travel extensively for work, and thus you will NEED to work around my schedule, and not the other way around. I will return all calls within a 12 hour window, but don't expect me to answer on the first ring. 4. You are welcome to have the car inspected by a person of your choice at my location. I will entertain it being driven within a 3 mile radius, but no farther, as I don't have the time to baby sit every prospective buyer. The car is listed for sale locally, and I have the right to sell it before this auction ends. Feel free to make an offer on eBay also. 5. Good luck on your vehicle search and purchase! |

Volvo S90 Recharge, Lexus RX 350 and spring beer picks | Autoblog Podcast #679
Fri, May 21 2021In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski. They start off discussing the Volvo S90 Recharge and wonder out loud why the brand's plug-in technology isn't also offered with a wagon body style. They then discuss the Lexus RX350 and why it's likely an ideal premium crossover for a large percentage of buyers. From there, Greg and Jeremy cover some recent news items, including the current state of BMW's coupes and rumors that Toyota's next Land Cruiser will lose its V8 engine in favor of a turbocharged V6. Then it's time to go over some of our current favorite spring beers before turning to the mailbag and spending some listener's money.

2016 Lexus GS gets 2.0L turbo engine, updated styling
Fri, Aug 14 2015The Lexus GS gets a number of enhancements for the 2016 model year, and the updated sedan makes its official debut in California during Monterey Car Week. The usual mid-cycle refresh styling nip/tuck is evident, but the bigger story is the addition of a new, rear-wheel-drive GS 200t model. Lexus' IS sedan isn't the only one getting turbo-four power for 2016. The GS 200t uses that same 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, good for 241 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. It's paired exclusively with an eight-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, and Lexus says the GS 200t should be able to achieve 33 miles per gallon on the highway. Not to be left out, the naturally aspirated GS 350 gets a small power bump for 2016. The 3.5-liter V6 now produces 311 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque, up from 306 and 277, respectively. The GS 450h hybrid carries over with its powertrain unchanged, as well as its 29/34 mpg city/highway rating. Other changes for 2016 include standard bi-LED headlamps as part of the reworked front fascia, and a host of technology upgrades. The 12.3-inch central display screen now has full-width map capability, and the controller gets some extra "enter" buttons. Lexus also gave its Enform system some updates, with a Service Connect system. The ever-important Apple CarPlay and Android Auto features are missing from this update, though it's not exactly surprising. Have a look at the updated GS 200t in the gallery above, and scroll down for the full press blast.

The GS enters 2016 with a bolder design, a new GS 200t rear-wheel drive model and new luxury finishes that match the refinement of Monterey. The Lexus GS continues to feature impressive agility and sporty handling for turns along California Highway 1, as well as comfortable ride quality for extended highway driving.
Lexus looking for performance with 600-hp LF-LC?
Sun, 27 Jul 2014Lexus has been keeping development of the production version of its LF-LC concept tightly under wraps. Last we heard, that halo GT car had received the green light for production, but that was over a year ago. Since then, things have been pretty silent. Finally though, fresh rumors about the luxury coupe are starting to leak out, pointing toward the model's powertrain lineup.
According to unnamed sources speaking to Motor Trend, the production LF-LC will eventually sport three very intriguing engine options. The base model will reportedly use a naturally aspirated V8 providing around 450 horsepower - very similar specs to the upcoming RC F. The next step up will allegedly be the upcoming hybrid powertrain shared between BMW and Toyota pumping things up to around 500 hp. Finally, a top-of-the-heap F version will use a twin-turbocharged version of the RC F's 5.0-liter V8 to bring output to 600 hp. The insiders even claim that the hybrid and the twin-turbo V8 could find their way into other Lexus products like the LS and possibly even a more beastly RC.
None of this speculation sounds too outlandish. Lexus could get more capacity out of the RC F's tuned V8 by shoving it into other models, and rumors are flying about performance cars spawned from BMW and Toyota's partnership. Given Lexus' recent embrace of turbocharging, even the twin-turbo V8 doesn't seem too dubious. That said, with no hard facts to back up the rumormill, we'll have to keep waiting to see what the LF-LC shows up with.
