I have owned this car for the last 3.5 years (originally purchased in April 2010) and have loved it. It's legitimately one of the smoothest rides ever - effortlessly cruises at 75 mph+ on highways and is simply a luxurious ride. I specifically sought this particular model out for several reasons: 1) the 2006 model has the classic big body style and look of the newer models (2007 and up), but has the older engine model which supposedly has less power. This still has 245HP and has more than enough burst and speed. To me, this was a great area to concede on. I commute less than 10 miles a day to work - an overly powerful engine was not a necessity. 2) The prior owner: this was the personal vehicle of a manager at the Huffines Jeep Dealership in Lewisville. You could tell it was in great condition and received plenty of attention and maintenance. 3) It does NOT have navigation. Why pay an extra $2,000 for a feature that is readily available on every smartphone in the world. The iPhone and Google Maps apps are better and more user friendly than a 2006 navigation system. It still has a touch screen for radio presets, AC/Heating, etc. I am selling the car because I have already purchased a Jeep Grand Cherokee. I'm at a point in my life where an SUV is more practical for my needs. As much as I'd love to keep two cars, it would make zero sense. There is normal wear and tear that any car built in 2006 will have, but it has less than 92,000 miles and is in really good condition. Please read the disclosures for a list of issues and major maintenance I've had over the last 3.5 years. There is no warranty on the car, which I haven't really needed. The one internal issue I had were the faulty headlights and I replaced those last year. *important disclaimer: I reserve the right to remove any bidder that has an unfavorable feedback score (zero feedback score, no purchase history, etc). *the car is sold as-is. You are welcome to look at the car at anytime to look it over. Just schedule a time with me and I'll meet you. If you have any questions, the fastest way to get a response is via email.

TMG's super Lexus LS Sports 650 gets track tested

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

The people at Toyota Motorsport GmbH have been responsible for the Japanese automaker's motorsports efforts since the 1970s, but since Toyota pulled out of Formula One after the 2009 season, the tuning shop has been developing a super sedan based on the Lexus LS called the Sports 650. Details on TMG's first road car have been scarce, but XCAR was recently invited to drive the 641-horsepower Lexus on track.
Here's what we know: the Sports 650 has enough power to sprint to 60 miles per hour in under four seconds, tops out at 199 mph, weighs over two tons and utilizes LFA brakes. Oh, and its twin-turbo V8 bellows like an AMG V8. That last part isn't surprising when considering TMG could become Toyota's in-house tuning arm - like AMG is to Mercedes-Benz. As for the bespoke body kit, fender flares and stacked exhaust pipes? They fit the car well and even remind us a bit of Lexus' other high-performance sedan, the IS F. Currently there are no plans for the Sports 650 to be made into a production car, but we doubt TMG is devoting this much effort developing the LS into a road-rocket for nothing.
Check out XCAR's video below to see the AMG-fighter wrung out on track, and then ponder what could be if TMG were let loose to fiddle with other cars in Lexus' lineup. Now that's something we could get used to!

2015 Lexus RC F configurator heats up

Thu, Dec 4 2014

Just over two weeks after Lexus activated its online configurator for the 2015 RC350, the Japanese luxury marque is flipping the switch on the car we really want to customize – the 467-horsepower RC F. In addition to letting us play about with various configurations for the new sports coupe, Lexus' latest builder is decidedly different and more visually pleasing. It also does away with the brand's typical, and occasionally unintuitive, grouping of options. In its place, we have a trio of simple, logical packages. There's a navigation pack that adds, um, navigation. It also includes in Lexus' Enform telematics suite. You can also select a Premium Pack, that adds luxury features like heated and vented seats, park assist and LED headlamps, while an all-weather pack tacks on a heated steering wheel, headlamp washers and a deicer for the wiper blades. There are some secondary options, too, including an attractive set of 19-inch wheels, an updated leather interior, adaptive cruise control and a moonroof. All in all, pretty standard fare. Prices for the RC F start at $62,400, not counting a $925 destination charge. Head over to Lexus' consumer page and build your ideal RC F.

Lexus RC F is a predatory sport coupe with a 450-horsepower beating heart

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Take a look at that face. We can't be the only ones who see an automotive Predator staring back, right? Certainly, the Lexus RC F Coupe boasts a visually striking design that some are going to love and others are going to hate, but we can at least appreciate that it's aggressive, especially compared to the standard RC Coupe that we saw at the Tokyo Motor Show. And with good reason - there's a 5.0-liter V8 engine sitting under that massively domed hood with "more than 450 horsepower," along with a newly calibrated eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Interestingly, Lexus has tuned the RC F's engine to run on an Atkinson cycle under most circumstances, while it switches to the more typical Otto cycle when more power is required, presumably using some sort of advanced variable valve timing technology. Helping put that power to the ground with all those ponies wreaking havoc underhood is a torque vectoring differential, a first from Lexus.
Also involved in keeping the RC F planted is an aero package that includes wings and ducts galore. The headline bit is an active rear wing that deploys at 50 miles per hour and retracts back into the deck when the car drops back to 25 mph. A clear-coated carbon fiber roof can optionally join that carbon rear wing. There are apparently going to be three 19-inch wheel options, including the ones you see in our live image gallery above.
