1996 Lexus SC300 468 HP Custom

This is one of the fastest SC300’s you will find! The heart of this wicked beast is a 2JZ engine that has been retrofitted with a Precision twin ball bearing turbo which has been dyno tuned and is putting 468hp to the rear wheels. It was just tuned and runs incredibly. You will find that this is a top of the line build and the car has been fitted with high pressure fuel injectors, a high pressure fuel pump, a turbo timer and an AEM engine management system. Getting the power to the rear end is a snap with its Stage II racing clutch and it sounds just plain nasty ripping through its Flowmaster performance exhaust system. The car was lowered 2 inches and currently rides on TIEN adjustable coil over damper shocks with a stabilizer bar. The brakes were upgraded with cross drilled and slotted rotors and it has all stainless steel brake lines. In addition to all of the performance upgrades you will also find the wood has been removed from the interior and replaced with carbon fiber parts including the rear package tray. The seats have brand new leather and cushions and the stereo has been upgraded with Rockford Fosgate speakers, amps and a sub. The thing that really sets this car off is the custom body kit with hood scoop which has been blended in so well it looks like it came from the factory. Not only is the body work perfect but the paint is a flawless House of colors black with red metallic that perfectly compliments the red carbon fiber racing stripe that gradually fades into real looking flames on both ends. The custom forged MB Motorsport wheels were painted to match as well and are wrapped in a new set of Goodyear F1 tires. All said and done over $30,000 was spent to customize this car less than 2,000 miles ago and that did not include the original cost of the car. If you are in the market for a fast and reliable toy you will be hard pressed to find a better value than this one. If you like what you see don’t wait till it’s gone to call!

Mercedes, Infiniti, Lexus rank tops with mystery shoppers

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

If you want the best experience possible when buying a new car, then you'd better head down to your local Mercedes-Benz, Infiniti, or Lexus showroom. According a mystery shopper study conducted by the Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, those three luxury brands ranked highest among the 33 makes surveyed. The highest scoring mainstream brands included GMC, Hyundai, Kia, and Ford.
The study asked 5,203 mystery shoppers about the tactics used by salespeople during their most recent automotive purchases, and found a few interesting parallels along the way. For example, dealers at Infiniti, Land Rover, and Smart leaned heavily on vehicle walk-arounds with potential customers, while Jaguar, Volvo, and Audi were quick to point out exclusive features.
This study contrasts with a similar study conducted by JD Power in 2012. Its Sales Satisfaction Survey listed Mini as the top scorer, while Pied Piper's mystery shoppers ranked the BMW-owned brand below the industry average. Lexus scored highly on both surveys, as did Infiniti and GMC.

A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]

Thu, Dec 18 2014

Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
