Her name is Lucy and she is one tough babe.  She enjoys long drives along the beach, breathing in the mountain air, road trips to anywhere, camping and taking good care of her driver.

Runs great, drives great.  Don't let the mileage fool you, you will watch the odometer go all the way back around to 0 on this car and she'll keep going.  These engines last forever!  This is a very reliable car and I have most of the maintenance records.  The only other owner was my mother before she gave the car to me.

Before clicking "buy now" please email me for my phone # to ask questions or set up a time to view – TakeRedHome@aol.com.

Feel free to bring your mechanic and inspect the car on-site or we can take it to a mechanic of your choice.  Again, the car is located in Westminster, CA.


Here are the specifics on the car:

4 cylinder

4 speed Automatic transmission

Clean title

247k miles

 

Pros:

 - Great gas mileage! - 26 City/33 HWY

 - Engine and transmission in great shape

 - Ice cold A/C!

 - Brand new CD/USB/AUX AM FM radio - hook your iPod up to it!

 - Polk Audio UV resistant speakers

 - K&N air filter (improved performance, never needs replacing)

 - Well maintained

 - The interior is very clean and in great shape.  No tears in the seats

 - Just passed smog in July

 - Just did oil change

 

Cons:

The car is in great working condition with normal wear and tear.  Only minor inexpensive maintenance should be performed soon:

- replace left outer CV boot

- 2 new tires

- alignment

 

Other negatives to note about the car:

- There is a slight oil leak which will take some labor to repair as it's between the engine and tranny.  The leak is not bad at all, just a drop or 2 per day.  As long as you continue to change the oil regularly, every 3K miles or so, you will not get low on oil.  But if you don't want oil on your driveway, you'll want it fixed.

- Rear driver side fender bent slightly.  This happened shortly after buying the car in ’93 and it's not causing any problems, it's merely aesthetics.  No frame damage.

- Rear bumper paint is peeling.

- Brakes squeak briefly sometimes when cold.

 - Every once in a while the power steering pump hums slightly so it will eventually need to be replaced down the road but most likely not for a while.  Mechanic couldn't couldn't say when, could be a year or 2 or longer.   The power steering works great now and the pump does not need replacing at this time.

- The dome light works, it just does not come on when driver’s side door is open, but it comes on when the other doors are open.  If you need the light on with driver’s door open, simply switch it to “on”. 

 

 There you have it.  Honestly, this is a great car that won’t let you down.  If you take good care of her like I did, she will take good care of you.

Award-winning Lexus Sport Yacht to get a production successor

Sat, Mar 10 2018

Imagine driving along a coastal road in the evening sun, listening to Christopher Cross, Michael McDonald or some other very smooth singer usually associated with the tag "Yacht Rock". Perhaps a Lexus coupe could very well suit that soft rock mental imagery, with "Sailing" playing from its Mark Levinson audio as you cruise down the road in a laid-back fashion. But you could in fact be sailing in a Lexus-branded boat, too. Revealed a year ago, the Lexus Sport Yacht isn't just a badge-engineering job: it was created by Lexus Design, engineered by Toyota's Marine Division and built by the Wisconsin-based boat manufacturer Marquis-Larson Boat Group. The one existing example has just now been honored at the Yokohama International Boat Show, by Japan's Boat of the Year committee. As Toyota's Executive Vice President Shigeki Tomoyama accepted the award, he also announced production plans for a globally sold Lexus Yacht. "Based on our amazing experiences in engineering, building, testing and showing the Lexus Sport Yacht concept last year, we've decided to take the next bold step of producing an all-new larger yacht that builds on the advanced nature of the concept while adding more comfort and living space," Tomoyama said. "We plan to start sales in the U.S. in the latter half of 2019, with sales in Japan following in the spring of 2020." The new, 65-foot yacht will be built in partnership with Marquis-Larson, and more details of it will be revealed later. Related Video:

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.

Construction of Lexus' first US assembly line underway

Thu, 09 Jan 2014

The ES is Lexus' top-selling sedan, but the Japanese luxury marque has never manufactured it outside of Japan. In fact, Lexus has never made any cars in the United States, one of its largest markets worldwide. But that's about to change.
Yesterday, construction began in Georgetown, Kentucky, on the first Lexus assembly line in America, the first concrete (or steel) step in a $360-million expansion of Toyota's plant in the Bluegrass state that will create 750 new jobs. The expansion was announced last April by chief executive Akio Toyoda at the New York Auto Show.
Once the new assembly line gets online in the fall of next year, Toyota plans on building some 50,000 units of the ES each year. Lexus sold a record 72,581 examples of the ES in the United States last year - 30 percent more than the previous year - so Lexus will either have to import some more from overseas or leave some buyers disappointed.
