IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK BEFORE YOU BID. 


You are bidding on a 2001 Lexus IS 300, it currently has about 144k miles. I am selling the car because I just bought a new Lexus IS-F. 

This car includes the following upgrades:
-18'' Konig Wheels w/ NEW tires
-Upgraded full exhaust system(headers,intake, and exhaust)
-JVC Double-Din In Dash Receiver with DVD/CD/USB capabilities
-10'' Kicker L7 Subwoofer w/ Kicker box 
-Eye lids
-Clear inner tails
- Midnight black grille w/ emblems
-Amplifier for Subwoofer

I bought the car at Northside Lexus, which is located in Houston, Texas. It still runs great, and the exterior is in good condition. The known defects include: CEL is on because of the aftermarket headers(Sometimes there can be issues with the o2 sensors), and there is a small barely noticeable mark on the hood and the bumper. 

A beautiful car, in a rare color. Buyer is responsible for additional fees and shipping. Fun to drive, and I have never broken down or had any reliability issues with this car!

I just got a new detail, oil change, and wheels aligned.

PRICED TO SELL FAST, SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY. THANK YOU


I will answer as quickly as possible, I check my emails consistently. We can talk by phone, or email- which ever you prefer. I am here to help and I can answer most, if not all, of your questions. We can go over the car panel by panel.

Additional details:
-Smoke free
-I just spent over $700 on new Bridgestone racing tires from Firestone, I still have the receipt.
-Quality Wheels were bought from Discount Tire Co. for $1500.
-The paint is still in amazing condition, pictures do not do justice! There is the minor chip that is above the right rear window (in the pictures) I really don't know how that happened or why it could've but it really is not noticeable. 
-This car was in one minor accident and has a CLEAR TITLE
- It was bought as a certified pre-owned from a certified Lexus dealership in Houston, these cars have the ability to put on much more mileage. 
- The car will include the owners manual, remote for JVC In-Dash Receiver, Lexus Medical kit, 2 set of keys and the upgrades mentioned above. I also have the stock headers and exhaust if needed.
- The car interior has been maintained well, there are a few minor stains on the floor carpets but you can buy new carpet rugs for a quick fix if that bothers you. The seats are all in great condition.
-Lastly, I have described the car to the best of my ability, I am not a professional. The car will be sold as-is, however, I am confident that you will be happy with your new car. The winner of the auction can pick up the car or we will arrange for shipping by auto carrier(rates can be very competitive, no matter how far you live from TX)

Lexus in no hurry to be a big player in China

Mon, 03 Jun 2013

For a while now, China's spiraling wealth, population and development has had the world's luxury automakers in an expansionist fervor, with many executives exhibiting the sort of gleefully maniacal behavior historically reserved for gold-rush prospectors. Yet Toyota, of all companies, is exercising a surprising amount of caution in the Asian nation.
As The Wall Street Journal notes, Toyota's premium brand, Lexus, sold all of 64,000 vehicles in China last year, while BMW cleared its books of 326,000. In fact, it didn't even bother entering the market until 2005, while rival Audi built its first car in the market a decade and a half earlier. Even now, Lexus doesn't build any vehicles in China, and with the country's notoriously high tariffs on imports, that's a major disadvantage. Yet the business daily quotes Lexus executive vice president Mark Templin as saying that the brand is nowhere near ready to start building cars in the market. "We're not having those discussions about when we're going to go to China... We have a lot of work to do before we get to that point."
Part of that work includes establishing a more expansive dealer network - Lexus only had 99 stores as of 2012, while rival Mercedes-Benz had over two-and-a-half times as many, and it's still expanding. Adding a lot of dealers without having a goodly number of competitively priced offerings for them to sell may seem like an odd strategy, but Templin tells the WSJ that the goal is to "cultivate our image for quality and customer service and let the customers that we have go tell that story for us."

Is now the time to snap up a Lexus LFA?

Fri, Apr 22 2016

If you missed out on getting a Lexus LFA when it was new, the time might be near to start looking for a less expensive used one. Listings indicate that the cost for the Japanese supercar is finally starting to drop below the original $375,000 sale price. Lexus built just 500 units of the LFA between 2010 and 2012, and around 200 of them came to the US. The supercar's major highlight was the 4.8-liter V10 with 552 horsepower and a 9,000-rpm redline. It's among the best sounding engines to ever hit the street. Since production stopped, LFA prices have generally remained higher than the original $375,000, but as CarBuzz recently found that trend has shown signs of changing. The site discovered a black 2012 example on Craigslist with 2,797 miles for sale in the San Francisco for $369,000. It's quite a beauty, too. Further research shows you can find an LFA even cheaper. AutoTrader currently lists eight of the supercars for sale, including the one in San Francisco. However, another black 2012 example in Florida is just $349,000 with 2,005 miles on it. If you wait around for the right auction, there are even better deals out there. Sportscar Market reported that a White Pearl 2012 LFA went for $335,000 at a Russo and Steele auction in California in June 2015. The buyer got quite a deal because the Japanese supercar had a mere 140 miles on it. Buying a vehicle for over $300,000 is still well out of the reach for most customers, but these listings hint that LFA prices are beginning to fall. The Lexus will never be at the neighborhood used car lot, but if this trend continues, it could make for some interesting shopping. For instance, if the Japanese supercar drops into the $250,000-range, would people consider spending a little more to buy one instead of a well-optioned new Acura NSX? The Lexus' engine certainly sounds better, and the company has no plans for another supercar of that caliber. Related Video:

Lexus Eco Challenge rewards schools for clean water, briquette press projects

Fri, Feb 28 2014

Teams from one New Jersey high school and one Michigan middle school reversed the old adage by thinking locally and acting globally. And that strategy won them the grand prizes in the most recent edition of the Lexus Eco Challenge. The future is indeed bright. The Toyota luxury-vehicle division gave out a half-million dollars in this year's contest. One $30,000 grand prize was awarded to the Pinelands Eco Scienteers from Little Egg Harbor, NJ, which produced and distributed low-cost briquette presses to rural villages beset by deforestation. The other grand prize went to the E.T. Electrical Team from Byron Center West Middle School in Michigan. That middle-school group raised money to send water filters to Haiti, Kenya and the Philippines. Lexus also awarded eight $15,000 first-place awards, with the winners including high schools from California, Florida, Missouri and Pennsylvania as well as middle schools from Arizona, Michigan, North Carolina and Texas. A special shout out goes to Daniel Boone Area High School in Birdsboro, PA, where students created an educational and public-relations campaign to publicize algae-based biofuels. In all, Lexus has doled out more than $4 million in Eco Challenge awards in seven years. Check out Lexus's press release below. Students Get Dollars and Sense in Lexus Eco Challenge - $500,000 Awarded to Teams Who Learn About Environment and Community Empowerment Two Grand Prize Teams Earn $30,000 Eight $15,000 First Place Awards Given to Innovative High School and Middle School Teams Students Bring Ideas to a Larger Audience and Make a Positive Impact on the World TORRANCE, Calif., (Feb. 24, 2014) – It's a win, win situation! Communities become a better place, and students, teachers and schools have the chance to share $500,000 in scholarships and grants through the Lexus Eco Challenge. This year, the $30,000 Grand Prize winners are the Pinelands Eco Scienteers from Little Egg Harbor, New Jersey, and the E.T. Electrical Team from Byron Center, Michigan. The Lexus Eco Challenge is an educational program and contest that inspires and empowers young people to learn about the environment and take action to improve it. High school and middle school teams nationwide define an environmental issue that is important to them, develop an action plan to address the issue, implement the plan, and report on the results.
