Lexus Is Is F Neiman Marcus Special Build 16 Of 50 on 2040-cars
Greenwood, Florida, United States
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!

Toyota profits up 23% on high US sales, despite mounting legal costs
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Toyota earned $9.3 billion in net income in the financial year that ends next month. The number beats earlier forecasts and marks a five-year high for the automaker, with both operating income and revenue up by 9.5 percent and 2.5 percent, respectively. Toyota saw quarterly profit enjoy a year-on-year jump of 23.4 percent, with the manufacturer earning more than $1 billion between October and December 2012. The good news comes in spite of the fact that the Japanese automaker actually endured an operating loss in North America, due in part to legal fees.
Toyota is set to pay more than $1 billion to owners who claim their vehicles decreased in value as a result of the company's recent spate of recalls. Even so, all three of the automaker's brands enjoyed a 13.5 percent sales increase in the US in the last quarter, beating the industry average. Toyota faltered in Europe, however, where it earned $99 million in operating profit last year, compared to $111 million in 2011. You can take a closer look at the company's full press release below for more information.
BMW M4 vs. Lexus RC F in Head 2 Head sports coupe showdown
Wed, 29 Oct 2014It's the showdown everyone's been looking forward to, the East versus West grudge match of the year. We're talking, of course, about the BMW M4 versus the Lexus RC F.
Although BMW uses a twin-turbo straight-six and the Lexus uses a free-breathing V8, the two are pretty closely matched on paper: a luxury coupe with over 400 horsepower channeled to the rear wheels.
The BMW has been doing these cars for longer, and the M4 boasts a higher power-to-weight ratio. But then the RC F has more power - and without forced induction to break up the rev range. So which is the better luxury muscle coupe? Watch the latest episode of Motor Trend Head 2 Head to find out.
J.D. Power study sees new car dependability problems increase for first time since 1998
Wed, 12 Feb 2014For the first time since 1998, J.D. Power and Associates says its data shows that the average number of problems per 100 cars has increased. The finding is the result of the firm's much-touted annual Vehicle Dependability Study, which charts incidents of problems in new vehicle purchases over three years from 41,000 respondents.
Looking at first-owner cars from the 2011 model year, the study found an average of 133 problems per 100 cars (PP100, for short), up 6 percent from 126 PP100 in last year's study, which covered 2010 model-year vehicles. Disturbingly, the bulk of the increase is being attributed to engine and transmission problems, with a 6 PP100 boost.
Interestingly, JDP notes that "the decline in quality is particularly acute for vehicles with four-cylinder engines, where problem levels increase by nearly 10 PP100." Its findings also noticed that large diesel engines also tended to be more problematic than most five- and six-cylinder engines.
