2008 Lexus IS F Special Build #16 of 50. Full Lexus Warranty until 3/11/16. 5.0L 32v V8.I love this car. The ONLY reason I'm selling is because I now have 3 kids (2, 3, & 6) and they aren't allowed in the F so anytime we go anywhere we end up taking the minivan. I live very close to my work and the trip back and forth is the only time I drive it which is such a waste for this beast. I did a little calculating and I've only been driving it under 4,500 miles a year so it's time to let somebody else enjoy it.This is an adult driven and car enthusiast owned vehicle that has been carefully driven and immaculately cared for (no burnouts etc). I have always spent a couple weekends each year fully detailing the car inside and out with Griot's Garage products (clay bar, polish, wax, etc) in addition to regular hand washes. I have all service records and paperwork that have been kept in a binder since I bought it, including the original sticker. Serviced almost exclusively at Lexus of Clearwater and just had the oil changed last month. Both keys are included.Details:2008 Lexus IS F Special Build #16 of 50. This is one of the first 50 IS F's off the assembly line and was featured and sold through the famous Neiman Marcus Christmas catalog making it rare and collectable in addition to being a awesome daily driver.-Just over 46k miles-LEXUS PLATINUM WARRANTY. I jumped through some hoops when I bought this car to purchase the official Lexus Financial Platinum extended warranty and not some 3rd party junk warranty. I had to purchase out of state to get it done but this is the best warranty available and you can use at any Lexus dealership and it IS transferrable. It doesn't expire until 3/11/16 or 75k miles. I highly doubt you find another one under warranty so you have some extra peace of mind.- Window tint-Custom Sunshade-WeatherTech Digifit floor mats (front and back)-New front brake pads, Brembo rotors, and water pump replaced 4k miles ago-Entire NAV system/screen replaced in '13 under warranty -There are really only two flaws on this car to speak of. 1. Is rock chips on the front bumper which seems to be unavoidable with Lexus paint (high quality and beautiful, but soft) and 2. A dent on the underside of front bumper from a parking lot stop. Because you can't see it I chose to not get it repaired. There are a few other paint imperfects but very minor.- It will need front tires in the near future as well. There's about 14k miles on the current set and I'll leave it up to the new owner to select the brand/model of tires they prefer when the time comes.I've been following these cars for years and I rarely see them come up for sale. The last one I saw was #6 of 50 and that sold for $38,990 in March of this year in Sarasota, FL.Title in hand. Cash buyer preferred but I'm willing to work with a buyer that is financing as well. I know PedFed.org has very competitive rates and there is a local dealer I have in mind that can facilitate financing if needed. Even if you don't use them you can probably use their rates to negotiate a lower rate with your lender. It think used car loans with them are currently at 1.99% APR.I did just have the vehicle serviced at Lexus of Clearwater but you are free to have it inspected yourself at your expense if you would like.Please email me with any questions. Thanks a lot!

Lexus spotted testing LF-LC coupe for production

Tue, Oct 27 2015

Lexus has been preparing a production version of the LF-LC concept for some time now. The coupe would fill at least part of the void left by the culmination of the LFA's production run, albeit at a much lower market position. And judging by these latest spy shots, it looks like it's finally getting down to it. Spotted undergoing testing in Germany around the neighborhood of the Nurburgring, this camouflaged prototype provides us with our first glimpse at what the production LC will look like. It's still hard to tell with all those swirls encircling its bodywork, but the production version looks poised to adopt a form derived from the concept first seen at the Detroit Auto Show way back in 2012. Just don't expect the details to be quite as extreme as those on the show car. It may also be too early to determine what's under the hood, but the signs point towards implementation of the 5.0-liter V8 from the RC-F. A twin-turbo version of the same engine in the form of an LC-F could follow with even more power, while a hybrid V6 is also said to be in the cards. If you're having trouble imaging what it would go up against in the marketplace, though, our spy photographers on the ground inform us that Lexus has been benchmarking this prototype against a BMW 6 Series, Porsche 911, and Maserati GranTurismo. That'd put it in good company, and we're looking forward to seeing how it turns out. Related Video:

Toyota investing $200M in Southern manufacturing

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

Over the past two years, Toyota has invested more than $2 billion at its North American production facilities, and it apparently doesn't plan on stopping there. To keep up with recent strong sales, Toyota is investing an additional $200 million at its engine plants in the Southern US to increase production capacity of its V6 engines.
The bulk of this money ($150 million) will go to expand Toyota's engine plant in Huntsville, AL, which is currently responsible for supplying engines - four-cylinder, V6 and V8 - to eight of Toyota's 12 domestically produced vehicles. That includes the best-selling Toyota Camry (shown above).
Toyota didn't say exactly what improvements are being made to the plant, but this follows last year's $80 million investment in the plant that is set to be completed by next year raising the engine capacity to 750,000 annual units including 362,000 V6s. The remaining $50 million will go to the casting plants of Toyota-owned Bodine Aluminum in Missouri and Tennessee, which supply engine blocks and cylinder heads to the Huntsville engine plant as well as others in Kentucky and West Virginia.

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name

Thu, 07 Aug 2014

The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
