Up for sale is my mint 2010 Lexus IS-F. It's finished in the best color, Matador Mica Red over black leather interior. The car is fully loaded except for park assist. It has been dealer maintained it's entire life and had every oil change done at a Lexus dealer. Absolutely no issues and has been remarkably reliable with zero issues in the time i've owned it. I'm extremely anal retentive and pride myself on keeping my cars very clean. The leather interior is cleaned and conditioned every other week. The car is washed once or twice a week using the two bucket method and a foam gun to ensure no swirls or scratches are put into the paint during cleaning. As you can see from the pictures the paint is gorgeous and looks like a red mirror. It gets a paint correction every 6 months to keep it looking perfect. In the sun it's truly incredible and turns heads. By far the best color for the IS-F (though i'm obviously biased). Car includes 2 sets of floor mats (one brand new) and one original set as well as a ISF sunshade from Sewell Lexus.

With so many 08 and 09 IS-F's on the market at sub 40k prices it's prudent to explain why the 2010 is worth the extra coin for those who haven't researched these cars. The differences for the 2010 IS-F are as follows:

Hard Drive Based Navigation (Upgradeable via USB with Lexus Map updates). Not DVD based like the old ISF. Interface and maps are much more high-res.
USB/Ipod/Bluetooth Integration
True Mechanical LSD (not "e-LSD" that is terrible). The acceleration from a dig or out of corners is entirely changed. Transforms the car on and off the track (though my car has never been tracked).
Revised Suspension
New Sport Steering Configuration
Black Interior Trim Around Navigation
New Wheel Design

Overall the 2010's are the first revised version of the IS-F and a distinct upgrade compared to the 2008/9. The 08/09's were also susceptible to navigation failure as well as waterpump leaking. The waterpump on this car was pre-emptively replaced by Lexus with the new version under warranty to protect against this possibility in the future.

The car is being offered up with a low reserve realistic for a car with these amount of miles and in this condition. If you want a cared for car that will give you no trouble this is the one. It is enthusiast owned and only being sold to move into a GTR. I truly love this car and it's a spectacular all-rounder that can hang with the M3 and C63 without the reliability nightmare and maintenance costs and liability. I work from home so it's not daily driven by only taken out as more of a weekend car. It's garage kept, warmed up fully, and only used in manual mode after the transmission is warmed up to "2 bars". This is not a car that has beaten or abused in any way.

Car is available for inspection by 3rd party or PPI. A 1000.00 non-refundable deposit is due via Paypal or wire within 24 hours of the auction close. I reserve the right to end the auction for a local sale.

TMG still developing Lexus LS Sports 650 [w/video]

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

If you're going to make a super sedan, you'd better do it in Germany. That's where Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz do it, along with third parties like Alpina, Brabus and G-Power, among others. Deutschland is the epicenter of the movement, regularly churning out the most powerful four-door rockets in the world. It's also where one of the racing divisions for Toyota has been hard at work on the TMG Sports 650.
Toyota Motorsport GmbH started with a Lexus LS and turned it into a 641-horsepower, twin-turbocharged super sedan it revealed late last year at the Essen Motor Show. But though we haven't heard much about it since then, the team behind Toyota's F1 and Le Mans efforts are apparently still hard at work on the project.
Speaking with Lexus' own UK blog, TMG chief Alastair Moffitt revealed that the project started way back in 2010, shortly after Toyota shut down its F1 program and left the racing team with nothing to do. The 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 was initially producing as much as 800 horsepower, but has since been refined to 650 so that it could theoretically be put into production and onto the road.

Lexus launching new Crafted Line special editions at Pebble Beach

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

Over the course of the past 25 years, Lexus has done one heck of a job winding its way into the luxury automobile market previously dominated by the Germans. And now it aims to take another step into the luxury arena with The Crafted Line by Lexus.
Set to debut at Pebble Beach later this month, the Crafted line offers the Storm Trooper treatment with high-contrast white paint and black trim. The interiors are done up in two-tone black and red, and Tumi has done up a special set of luggage to match.
The special edition will be available on the ES350 as well as the F Sport versions of the LS460, GS350, IS250 (in both rear- and all-wheel drive) and RX350 AWD. Each will be limited to around 1,000 examples (give or take, depending on the model), with pricing set to start at around $42,000 for the ES pictured above. Scope out the full details in the press release below.

This is Lexus' trick 3D ad in Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue

Wed, 26 Feb 2014

Having driven its RC F into the party at the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, Lexus is making the most of the exposure. We recently saw the blue coupe showing off its L-Finesse curves with a curvaceous Lisalla Montenegro. And a new video shows how the magazine ad will also work without a bikinied sidekick, showing off the Lexus' own body and sounds in a 3D app for iOS and Android.
After downloading the app and the 3D image for your tablet or phone, the 450-horsepower RC F will be yours to play with - or, as Lexus suggests, yours to "create the 3D experience in your own hands." You didn't have any other plans for your hands while checking out the new issue, did you? The video below will show you how it's done.
