I am selling my 96 FZJ80 Lexus LX 450/Toyota Land Cruiser

NO RESERVE AUCTION! High bid wins-------------

Only 151k CarFax certified miles. California car since new. NO rust.

Yes, it has the DIFF LOCK option!

I bought this LX earlier this year after a long search for a clean, well kept, well maintained 80 series with Diff Locks. I finally found this one pretty close to home just north of Santa Barbara. I am the 5th owner and the title is in name. Was going to keep this one long term but things change. It's ready for a new home. I have sold some very nice Land Cruisers and Toyota's here on eBay with 100% satisfaction. So bid with confidence.

It's the champaign color scheme from Lexus with pretty much all the options available in 1996. Running boards, roof rack (I removed the Lexus rack and added Yakima load bars, still have orig rack), tow package, 3rd row seats, Diff Lock, auto climate control, etc.

It also has the CDL switch (center diff lock) added. It's been very well maintained with extensive Lexus Dealership records and others. Major items to note included: pesky heater hose replaced, valve cover gasket replaced, front axle rebuild, new distributor cap, spark plugs, plug wires and tube seals. Newer brakes with slotted rotors on all four wheels. Recent service of the AC (blows cold). Just serviced with oil change, filter and full lube.

Within the last 2k miles I purchased an Old Man Emu 2.5" medium lift from Spector Off-Road and had it installed at my shop in Santa Barbara. Includes castor correction kit and Emu steering stabilizer. Then I had an alignment done and installed new BFG All-Terrain TA 282/75r16 on the stock Lexus alloys. New center caps (Toyota Logo) installed as well. It rides incredible with this set up and looks great. All in it was well over $3,000 for these upgrades.

The interior is almost in perfect condition. The power seats work perfectly. All electronics such as the power windows, locks, HVAC, etc work just as they should. The power button, 2nd gear start and overdrive buttons work perfect. The front, rear and center diff locks all work and engage as they should. The radio, CD player work and sound great. Though the power antenna motor doesn't work and I replaced the aerial with a carbon stub. Looks pretty good The leather is near perfect and original. The only things to note would be a small "cut" or separation of the leather on the drivers seat right side back bolster and a little wear on the top of the steering wheel(I use a nice cover, you'll see in photos) and gear shift lever. Otherwise the interior is close to a 9 out of 10. Non smoking owners and smells like a Lexus.

The paint is all original and overall in really great shape. Things to note include some clear coat fade on the top center of the hood and right rear fender flare (pretty minor). The left rear fender flare has a little worse fade, please see in detailed photos. Doesn't really bother me as I like the original paint aspect. All original VIN stickers present. No accident, paint or bodywork history.

So overall much less dings and fade than an average Land Cruiser/LX450 of this vintage. I've owned quite a few and this one is on the nicer side by far.

It runs, drives, shifts, brakes, etc just as it should. Throws no codes and is a pleasure to drive. It's turn key and needs nothing. This is most likely one of the nicer Land Cruiser/LX 450's on the market.

Current California tag until February 2015. Two Lexus keys, owners manual, Lexus OEM floor mats (fronts, center & rear) and few other extra parts included. Have the original Lexus coil springs if you want them. On, the "D" light and the "overdrive" light are bulbs are burned out.

As is where is sale. I offer no warranties expressed, written or implied. The Lexus has a clear title in my name. It's located in Santa Barbara, CA at my home. I'll happily pick you up at the Santa Barbara airport or train station and can assist with your transporter.

Pre buy inspections are welcomed and encouraged BEFORE the auction ends.

Please message me through eBay or for faster response call me at 805-415-2848 with any questions. My name is Patrick.

Bidders with zero (0) or negative feedback please contact me prior to bidding or your bid could be canceled.

$500 deposit due immediately at close of auction via PayPal. Balance due within 5 days via Wire Transfer, Bank Transfer or Cash. Vehicle to be picked up in a timely manner hopefully within a week or so.

J.D. Power: Vehicle dependability at all-time high, Lexus and Porsche lead

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Each year, J.D. Power and Associates surveys original owners of three-year-old vehicles to find out what kinds of problems they have had experienced over the last 12 months, and then it uses this data to create its annual Vehicle Dependability Study. This means that the models in the 2013 study are 2010 model year vehicles, and J.D. Power rates each make as well as the top individual models based on how many problems were experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Debunking the idea that carryover models are more dependable than new or updated models, the 2013 study found that the average carryover model experienced 133 PP100, while all-new or redesigned vehicles for the 2010 model year had 116 PP100; vehicles that received minor changes fared the best with just 111 PP100. The overall average for all makes was 126 PP100, which is the lowest figure since the findings were first issued in 1989.

2014 Lexus IS brings boldest design yet to entry-level luxury

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

Lexus is evidently dead serious about removing some of the starch from its collar, as evidenced by the boldly styled new IS sedan just unveiled here at the Detroit Auto Show. We didn't know what to make of Lexus' entry-level sport sedan when we first saw images of it earlier this week. Dominated by the gaping maw of a spindle grille and flanked by headlamps with Nike swoosh daytime running lamps, the photos showed a distinctive (if not completely cohesive) design. Having now seen the design in the metal, we have to admit it comes together better than it does on screen.
The new model will feature both rear- and all-wheel drive models in both 2.5-liter V6 (IS250) and 3.5-liter V6 (IS350) trims. Lexus also showed an IS300h hybrid model at the reveal, but it is earmarked for Lexus' home market of Japan, along with Europe and other markets. No word yet on why the model probably won't be sold here in North America, but our AutoblogGreen compatriots are looking into it.
Aside from its bold new look front and rear, the IS carries forward a lot of the ideas seen in other newer Lexus models, namely the GS. Hidden beneath the IS' sheetmetal is the multilink rear suspension from the GS, along with its electric power steering setup. The new IS rides atop a three-inch longer wheelbase for better rear seat room, but during our brief time sitting in the car at the press conference melee, it still didn't feel terribly roomy (it rarely does in this class). At least the seatbacks fold 60/40 for the first time for additional utility.

New Lexus ES will debut at Shanghai Motor Show

Fri, Apr 10 2015

Lexus will debut a new version of its ES sedan at the Shanghai Motor Show later this month. Don't expect it to be a total redesign, however – with the sixth-generation ES having just gone on sale in late 2012, we only anticipate a mid-cycle refresh. That's the impression we get from the teaser image above, too. The most prominent change is the reshaping of the headlamps with an LED swoosh, the overall shape of the fascia is very similar to that of the current car. The grille looks to be a bit more angular and pronounced, perhaps indicating the inclusion of an F Sport trim Â– something the ES currently does not have. The ES holds a unique position in the Lexus lineup. It's the only of the automaker's sedans not to be based on rear-wheel-drive architecture Â– the ES uses a version of the fullsize Toyota Avalon platform. That said, the ES is hugely important, with some 1.7 million examples being sold globally over the past 25 years. We'll know more when the ES officially bows in the not-too-distant future. Related Video: THE NEW LEXUS ES TO MAKE ITS GLOBAL DEBUT AT AUTO SHANGHAI 2015 BEIJING Â– April 10, 2015 - The new Lexus ES luxury sedan will make its global debut at Auto Shanghai 2015 on April 20, 2015. The Lexus ES established a unique and important position in the luxury sedan segment with its elegant styling, extraordinary quality, and Lexus' best-in-class service when it was introduced in 1989. More than 1.7 million units have been sold globally over the past 25 years. The new Lexus ES maintains its classical elegance while conveying a more dynamic experience and luxurious craftsmanship. The ES will be on display April 22-29, 2015 at the Lexus booth in Hall 7.1 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center at Auto Shanghai 2015.
