1st Generation 1994 Lexus LS 400. Original white pearlescent exterior paint. Overall good running condition and smooth riding car. Alignment and tire balance are excellent. Recently had the alternator replaced in March of this year and fuel system cleaned. The rack and pinion was replaced about 3 years ago. I will include all paper work of service done while I have owned the vehicle. The service tech at AAA explained that the vehicle will be in need of a tune up sometime in the  future. I usually clean the K&N air filter twice a year. Vehicle has good brakes and rotors. The battery is new as of 2011. Overall the engine runs strong still with no knocking and has great pick up for its age. Since I have owned the vehicle in 2008 I only run 93 gas in it from Shell. Transmission shifts very smooth while accelerating and has either normal or power mode,vehicle has great pick up speed as it is a V8. The inside of the vehicle has some cracks on the front leather seats from heat and age and it has been smoked in. Otherwise the back leather seats and floors are very clean. The dashboard cluster has the classic Lexus problem of not turning on and flashing especially when its cold outside. Lately if I take the vehicle for a drive over 20 minutes it eventually turns on, but until then it is dark and hard to read. This is a problem with the capacitors on the cluster unit. This can be repaired although the cluster has to be removed from the car and have the capacitors changed on the board, I have complete instructions on how to do this. If you have the know how on this type of repair it is only a few dollars to repair, otherwise I know that you can find the repair service here on ebay. The gas gauge does not give a reading for sometime after the car has been on this is also caused by a bad capacitor on the cluster unit which can be repaired with the same service as the lights. The odometer still keeps accurate mileage even though it cannot be read until the cluster turns on. The A/C and heater both work great although the LCD displays for the time and temp setting have both blacked out so they cannot be read( which is another common problem for this year Lexus). Stereo works great and has a six disc CD changer in the trunk, the antenna works well and raises and lowers as it should. All power windows and moonroof open well with no issues. Otherwise the only other interior issue is the headliner towards the back window on the driver side needs a couple new clips as the original clips have come off at some point so it hangs down a little. The exterior paint is overall pretty good condition with only a couple spots of sun damage on the roof with some pitting in the paint in front of the moon roof and a couple small spots about the size of a pin head on the hood where light rust has started from road chips.  Body has no dents. The front bumper was repainted in 2009 as the paint was wearing off the top part in front of the grill and was yellowing (like the gray lower area along the back where it meets the chrome middle divider). The company that painted it tried to match it up as best they could although where it was repainted is a slight color off from the rest of the car, as the paint on the rest of the vehicle has faded over the years from the sun and is pretty much impossible to get an exact match on. Vehicle has had dent repair done on the hood and roof from hail in 2011 through a Geico certified body shop (Wilburn Repair Charlotte). Dual exhaust system is in great condition with no issues. Wipers work great. Right front headlight glass has a very small hole in it about the size of a bb, all lights work as they should (headlights, taillights etc..) Tires have a lot of tread left with some cracking on all four. Rims are after market and are very clean with no scratches which I purchased from Discount Tire. Spare tire is the original Lexus rim that came with car. Trunk is very clean and has tool kit and first aid kit along with full size spare.Comes with original key fob and two extras.  Overall has been a great vehicle for me, I just got a SUV so vehicle has just been sitting. Feel free to ask any questions. Phone # available upon request. Clean title in hand. Buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping. Serious buyers only please, any non pay will be reported to ebay resolution center.

Lexus parts prices cut in China amidst antitrust fears

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

It's been a topsy-turvy summer for foreign businesses in China ever since that country's National Development and Reform Commission and State Administration for Industry & Commerce launched a horde of investigations into anti-monopoly practices. When the law outlining monopolistic behavior was passed in 2008 foreign companies appreciated it, expecting it to illuminate some of the more opaque corners of Chinese government enforcement. That hasn't exactly been the case, and now as more than 1,000 auto-sector firms get investigated and pay huge fines to settle the nebulous charge of having prices that are too high, that hoped-for clarity is all but gone.
A recent news report said Audi, Chrysler and Daimler "would be punished for unspecified violations" concerning the prices of spare parts. Earlier this month Toyota said that Lexus China was being looked at, and before there's been any public notification of punishment Lexus has decided to lower the price of its replacement parts. From next month, customers will save an average of 26 percent on roughly 15,000 parts. It's unknown whether the move will appease authorities enough to end the investigation, which outside analysts have said targets foreign firms in China over domestic industry.

Lexus LX to get diesel engine?

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Australian consumers appear poised to get another diesel-burning luxury SUV in the near future, and word is it's coming from Lexus, of all automakers. Sean Hanley, chief executive of the company's branch in Oz, recently told Aussie website Drive that he's "pretty confident" that the new engine for the LX is getting the green light.
Like in the US, the LX in Australia is currently only offered with a 5.7-liter, gasoline-burning V8. However, sales of the big SUV are presently minuscule Down Under, with Drive reporting just 153 LX570s sold in all of Oz last year. Hanley is negotiating with Japan to get the new diesel in hopes of boosting flagging sales. If his efforts are successful, it would be the first diesel engine offered in a Lexus there. Hanley didn't specify exactly which mill the SUV would get. However, given the LX's close relationship with Toyota Land Cruiser, the diesel 4.5-liter twin-turbo V8 already available in the Toyota in markets outside of North America seems like a natural choice.
Don't expect the variant to be hopping across the Pacific, though. Lexus spokesperson Allison Takahashi tells Autoblog she has heard "nothing" about an oil-burning LX coming to the US. That's not a huge surprise, though, because neither Toyota nor Lexus offer any diesels in their lineups today. Also, Lexus has only sold 1,981 LX570s through June, which only placed it ahead of the LFA supercar in the brand's sales. It's probably just not worth certifying the engine for such a low-volume model.

Toyota fills in details about its future design direction and global platform

Fri, 25 Oct 2013



"In the future, out of 100 customers, we want to excite ten of them instead of not offending all 100."
Almost all of the details about the Toyota New Group Architecture (TNGA) strategy have come out since the initiative was first reported on in March of this year, but Autoblog did learn a few new things about it on a recent trip to Japan. Probably the second-most important detail is that each new segment platform will be based around a common hip point to create an "optimal driving position architecture."
