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 takes aim at electric vehicles, again
Wed, Oct 12 2016Lexus is once again taking aim at plug-in vehicles by emphasizing the perceived challenges of recharging batteries, rather than simply filling up with gas or hydrogen. Only this time, Toyota's luxury division appears to be zigging while everyone else is zagging. Of course, the nameplate can use all the help it can get when it comes to hybrid sales. First highlighted by Green Car Reports, Lexus has added a banner to the website of its hybrid vehicles that says "Always Charged. Always Ready." That's a not-so-veiled shot at plug-in vehicles, a sector where Toyota has minimal exposure. Lexus also notes of its hybrid vehicles that there's "nothing to plug in." Of course, there may be sour grapes at play. Through September, sales of its five hybrid models in the US dropped 17 percent from a year earlier to about 21,500 units, and September was particularly tough as hybrid sales plunged 34 percent to almost 1,800 units. Even so, the third quarter likely represented a record when it came to plug-in vehicle sales. We say "likely" because Tesla doesn't break out its US sales, and not all automakers disclose sales of their plug-ins. We calculate that sales for the quarter were at about 36,000 vehicles, up 38 percent from a year earlier. For now, Lexus doesn't sell a fuel-cell model, though it may sell a fuel-cell version of the Lexus LS full-size sedan. Toyota, of course, offers the Mirai, which has moved about 710 units this year. Lexus has gone down this proverbial road before. In 2014, the brand unveiled a similar campaign that highlighted how long it took to recharge EVs, and was ultimately taken to task by electric-vehicle advocates Plug-In America. Lexus apologized for offending anyone and said it'd review content related to hybrid advertising. Doesn't seem like an apology is in order this time out, but that doesn't mean that it's a good strategy.

Recharge Wrap-up: Formula E gets more power, Tesla outsells competition
Thu, Jan 7 2016Tesla sold significantly more electric vehicles than its competitors in 2015. Tesla delivered 50,580 vehicles in 2015. 208 of those were its new Model X SUV, and likely half of its Model S units were sold in the US. By comparison, Nissan sold 17,269 Leafs. For General Motors, through the end of November, Cadillac sold 1,024 ELRs, while Chevrolet sold 15,393 Volts and 2,477 Spark EVs. Ford sold similar numbers of its plug-in vehicles in 2015, compared to Nissan and GM, putting each of those automakers between 17,000 and 19,000 EVs. By comparison, Tesla had quite a year. Read more at Teslarati. Lexus is teasing an "unprecedented" world premiere at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. The automaker is rumored to debut its LC 500, powered by a 465-horsepower, 5.0-liter V8, as well as the LC 500h using a hybrid powertrain consisting of a V6 engine and electric motor. The LC 500h is rumored to produce over 470 horsepower. The Lexus LC will be based on the LF-LC concept that debuted in Detroit in 2012. Lexus has set up a dedicated microsite for its presentation at the Detroit show on January 11. Read more from Hybrid Cars. Formula E will raise its power limit for its third season. According to the newly published FIA Formula E 2016 Technical Regulations, output will be boosted from a maximum 200 kW (268 horsepower) to 250 kW (335 horsepower). While race energy will still be limited to 28 kWh, the battery weight limit has been raised from 200 kilograms (441 pounds) to 230 kilograms (507 pounds), likely to help accommodate the higher output. Meanwhile, overall car weight drops from 888 kilograms (1958 pounds) to 880 kilograms (1940 pounds). Lighter, more powerful cars should make the next season of Formula E even more exciting.

Lexus GS F coming in 2016 with 500 hp
Sat, 06 Sep 2014The Lexus GS F has been one of those cars that's been rumored and whispered about for years, but has never come to fruition. The last time we spoke of the Lexus-badged BMW M5-killer was in a crop of spy photos, posted one year ago yesterday. So what's behind this latest rekindled round of rumors?
Well, according to Autocar, sources have claimed that the GS F will hit markets in 2016, and that it will make use of a more potent version of the Lexus RC F's 5.0-liter V8 that will sing to the tune of 500 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission from ZF will be included, as will a Torsen limited-slip diff. Taken as a whole, the executive sedan should get to 60 in the mid-four-second range and accelerate to a top speed of 170 miles per hour.
Prices in the UK will start at 80,000 pounds ($130,000 at today's rates, but as we know, translating British prices to American prices is an inexact science), and right away, we run into a big issue.
