1996 Lexus Lx450 - Lexus Version Of The Toyota Landcruiser on 2040-cars
Fort Wayne, Indiana, United States
|
For Sale is a 1996 Lexus LX450, which is really a Toyota Land Cruiser with Lexus badges. Overall, this well-maintained 7-passenger SUV is in great shape with a few cosmetic issues. I've been the owner for the past four years and have owned it without any issues other than maintenance projects. I have only put on around 30,000 miles. I've enjoyed owning this vehicle and truly belief it's got another 100,000 solid miles in it. These SUVs are known for long, productive lives. Google it if you're interested in knowing more. Below are some bullet points to consider:
Car Details: 184,5xx miles 7 - passenger All wheel drive with 4-wheel high & low gears Black with Tan interior Tires - 50-60% tread life left on Toyo tires 6-disc built in CD player 2" trailer hitch system installed - not wired for lights Recent Maintenance/Repairs: In Prep for Sale - Full inside & outside detail with buffing & carpet cleaning 2014 - Front & Rear Brakes - new rotors on back, turned rotors on front & new front caliper 2014 - New power steering 2014 - New battery 2014 - New front axle knuckle gasket kit installed in right front wheel 2013 - New Air Conditioner 2013 - New Complete exhaust system from engine to tailpipe 2012 - New heating fluid lines from front heater to rear heater Oil changes with 10W40 every 3000 miles & other routine maintenance like tire rotations Condition Notes: Front bumper - I purchased the car 4 years ago with the front right bumper slightly pushed in. It was likely backed into. Looks like front bumper could be removed, bracket bent back, and then bumper re-installed. It ins't a big deal for me, so I haven't fixed it. Paint & Body - Overall for a 1996, the paint and body work are in good shape. Just waxed/buffed and the only things you see is when you stand right over the flat surface areas where rain, dirt, & anything else have collected over the year and caused spotting. Can't tell from 5' away. There are a few small door dents, paint cracks on bumpers, and small stone chips. There is visible rust on the running boards just at the edge of the running boards. Rear Hatch Under Wiper - this is common place to rust out. I sanded the rust, patched it with metal patch putty, and then repainted those areas. You can tell it's there, but the rust has stopped & it's sealed with satin paint that matches well. Not professional, but effective. Sunroof - The sunroof works. The only problem is that it only goes about half way back. Something stuck in the track or binding it halfway. I personally just haven't wanted to drop the headliner to inspect. Don't really use sunroof that much anyway. Cigarette Lighter doesn't work (disconnected wire maybe) and the rear passenger side window button on driver's side door doesn't work. The window works and the button on that door works, just not the button on the driver's side door. Just haven't taken door apart to inspect. I'm happy to answer any other questions. |

Autoblog Podcast #339:
Lexus reveals LF-NX crossover concept for Frankfurt
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Compact luxury crossovers are becoming big business for upscale automakers. Mercedes is slotting the new GLA beneath the GLK, BMW has the X1 below the X3, Audi has downsized from the Q5 to the Q3, and Lexus is keen to get in on the game. And to that end, Toyota's luxury division is coming to the Frankfurt Motor Show this year with the concept crossover you see here.
Previewed a couple of weeks ago with an enigmatic teaser, the LF-NX concept, in the company's own words, "explores the potential for a compact crossover within the Lexus model range." The latest adaptation of the "L-finesse" design language could be the sharpest and most stylistically Japanese we've seen yet, with the sharp creases of the signature spindle grille repeated all around for a razor-sharp look. Lexus only released one shot of the cabin, but it looks as sharp as the exterior and, while clearly stylized, looks essentially more production-ready than most show cars.
Lexus hasn't revealed much about the powertrain, saying only that it incorporates "a new variant of the Lexus Hybrid Drive system tuned for SUV performance." Whether it actually has an engine that Lexus will detail at the show remains to be seen, but you can delve into the press release below for more and scope out the five images released thus far in the gallery above for a closer look.
Toyota may put Mirai hydrogen fuel cell powertrain into a Lexus
Wed, Dec 24 2014Toyota is hoping to define the world of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles with its uniquely styled Mirai sedan in a fashion similar to the way the Prius pops into people's minds when they think of a hybrid. The Japanese automaker believes it can sell about 700 FCEVs worldwide in the first year alone and build rapidly from there to an estimated 3,000 sales in the US by 2017. Of course, not everyone is completely enamored with the Mirai's design. Toyota is rumored to have an alternative in the works to quell some of those naysayers, possibly taking flagship form with a new Lexus LS powered by fuel-cell tech. The LS FCEV could be unveiled by 2017 to sit at the very top of brand's lineup. According to an inside source speaking to the Australian website Motoring, the front end would feature larger air intakes to cool the electrical components. The fuel cell would reportedly be positioned under the front seat, and the hydrogen tanks would be located under and behind the rear seat. Somehow, Motoring claims that all of this might be lighter than the current LS600hL hybrid, to the tune about 440 pounds. The model is also claimed to offer a range of about 239 miles, just a bit shy of the Mirai's roughly 300 miles. Assuming this vehicle actually exists, the cost for buyers of this flagship would almost certainly ring up at more than the LS600hL's $120,440 base price. Autoblog has reached out to Toyota for any further info about this rumor, one way or the other. If we hear back, we'll update this story with the details.
