Established 1989

 

 

 

 

100% Positive eBay Feedback, 100% of the time since 1999

 

 

 

 

Please do not buy this vehicle if . . .

 

. . . your wife/husband/etc. isn't going to let you buy it.

 

. . . you have zero (0) feedback. If this is you, please call or email me first.

 

. . . you don't have the money and haven't been pre-approved for financing on this vehicle through your bank/credit union. I do not finance, but I can work with any lender of your choice.

 

. . . you don't have the ability or refuse to pay for this vehicle within a reasonable amount of time. This listing specifies 3 business days and that is my preference, but if you need a coupIe of extra days that is always acceptable.

 

. . . you're not comfortable with buying a vehicle through the internet. Food for thought: Do you think your local used car dealership would have 15 years of 100% positive ratings on each and every vehicle sold all over the world if their buyers had the ability to leave them feedback on an open forum (even after driving the vehicle a couple thousand miles)? There is a difference!

 

. . . you buy this vehicle and expect me to pick you up at the airport on a Sunday morning - unless you catch an early flight and want to come to worship with my family and I - it starts at 10am and that's where I'll be.

 

Thanks!

This is a beautiful 2002 Lexus SC430 Convertible with the 4.3L V8 Engine and Automatic Transmission. This Lexus is ready to drive anywhere. The engine is very strong and doesn't smoke, doesn't leak, and doesn't make any strange noises. It starts up immediately and runs perfectly smooth. I just had a brand new set of tires mounted and computer balanced, along with a 4-wheel alignment. The transmission shifts perfect. Only 70k original miles. Carfax Certified car with no previous accidents. Never abused or driven hard - only very well kept and maintained, and lightly upgraded. Several very tasteful aftermarket custom touches. Drives tight, straight and smooth with no issues. I've put about 100 miles on this car myself and it has performed flawlessly.

 

The 18 inch wheels are from a newer model Lexus and are in excellent condition with only a couple tiny nicks on the outer rim lip. The factory tire pressure sensors are installed and operate perfectly. The tires are brand new. The suspension has lowering springs installed, so the ride is firm but not harsh, and it handles excellent. The axle-back exhaust is from Blitz and the extra sound is barely noticeable, but it sounds amazing. Many underhood pieces have been professionally smoothed and painted silver, and there is an Injen air intake system installed as well.

 

The interior is in mint condition. Everything looks great and the upholstery all in excellent condition. Never smoked in. Everything works perfect. The A/C is cold and the Heat is hot. No smells. No stains, tears, or worn spots. Power top works perfect. Navigation and all accessories work great also.

 

The exterior is also in excellent condition. No rust. The paint shines excellent. No previous accidents or fender benders. All body panels appear to be original. No dents, dings, or scratches. This is a stunningly gorgeous car that gets a lot of attention.

 

This Lexus is ready to be driven anywhere you want to take it. It drives excellent. If you'd like to fly in and drive it home, I'll personally bring it to you at the airport when you arrive. If you need it shipped, I can arrange that for you too.

Our History:   Short Motor Company was founded by my Dad, Leo Short, in 1990 after he was a Snap-On Tool dealer for 9 years. He was guided in starting his business by his uncle, John Short, who owned several new and used car dealerships throughout Texas over the course of more than 30 years in the business. I started working for my Dad at age 16, finished high school, and began my college career toward my Associates Degree in Automotive Marketing and Management from Northwood University in Cedar Hill, TX. I married my wonderful wife Rachel in 2007 and we welcomed a baby boy to our family in February 2011, and then a baby girl in December 2012. My Dad and I continue to work together: he sells vehicles strictly from his storefront just as he has done from the same location since 1989, while I have chosen to cater to the online community. Since 1989 our family business has been a member in good standing with the Fort Worth Independent Auto Dealers Association, the Texas Independent Auto Dealers Association, and the National Independent Auto Dealers Assocation.

 

When I was 12 years old, my Grandpa gave me a 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback that had been sitting in a field since the 1970's. It was my dream car, but once I started looking to buy parts for it and realized that wasn't going to happen with my small budget, I sold it for $1,300. By the time I graduated High School at age 17, I had bought and sold over 30 cars. For my High School yearbook, they made up a new "Most Likely To Be..." category for me - I was "Most Likely To Become President Of Ford Motor Company". When I joined eBay in 1999 I was buying and selling rare Hot Wheels toy cars. Now since 2006 I've been selling pre-owned cars and trucks full-time on eBay and specializing in diesels. Since day one, I've maintained 100% positive feedback with over 350 transactions.

 

 

My Philosophy:   To provide quality pre-owned vehicles with outstanding value and superior customer service. I realize that my customers have a lot of choices when purchasing a vehicle and my goal is to cater to you personally by providing a perfectly painless purchasing experience. I treat you with the same respect, honesty, and integrity that I would expect to receive. All of my vehicles are hand-picked, thoroughly inspected and fully serviced, and then inspected cosmetically and test driven by me before they're ever offered for sale. If you have a question about anything at all, please don't hesitate to ask - I'm readily available through email (bradyshort@gmail.com) or a phone call (817-988-2629).

Finance

I DO NOT OFFER FINANCING. However, if you choose to seek your own financing through a bank or credit union, I can work with them to finalize your purchase. But, if you are going to need financing, please make sure that you are approved by your lender for the vehicle you would like to bid on before bidding on it.

 

A few suggestions for financing providers are shown below:

Shipping

- FREE PICK-UP AT ANY AIRPORT, BUS STATION, OR TRAIN STATION IN THE DALLAS/FORT WORTH AREA -

If you choose to fly into any airport in the Dallas/Fort Worth area (Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and Dallas Love Field are the two main ones), I will deliver your vehicle (and paperwork) to the airport at any prearranged time (during normal business hours, unless other arrangements are made ahead of time). I can also accommodate any buyers who prefer to ride the train or bus into the Dallas/Fort Worth area as well.

- NATIONWIDE "TO YOUR DOOR" DELIVERY OF YOUR VEHICLE -

I recommend Will Haul It, LLC (www.WillHaulIt.com) for all your vehicle transport services. For a shipping quote, you can either contact me or call Russell at Will Haul It directly at (321) 610-4798. The service is honest and personal, the price can't be beat, and the delivery time is extraordinary. Almost every vehicle shipped with Will Haul It only takes 7 days or less to get to its destination from the time the shipment is booked.

- PERSONAL DELIVERY -

If you choose to have me deliver your vehicle to you, I can do so personally for $1.75 per loaded mile within a 600 mile radius of ZIP code 76115, and can facilitate that within 3 business days under normal circumstances.

Terms and Conditions

Fee and Tax Information:


BUYERS FROM TEXAS: You will be charged 6.25% State Sales Tax (Sale Price x .0625), $33 Title Transfer Fee, .2365% Vehicle Inventory Tax (Sale Price x .002365), and a $50 Documentary Fee. New license plates, registration sticker, and safety/emissions inspection sticker will be taken care of at no charge to you.

BUYERS FROM ANY STATE OUTSIDE OF TEXAS: You will only be charged Vehicle Inventory Tax of .2365% (Sale Price x .002365) and a Documentary Fee of $50. You are responsible for paying sales tax in your own state of residence (if applicable).

TO ALL BUYERS: Total amount of vehicle is to be paid within 3 business days after the auction ends. Acceptable payment methods are: Cash (in person), Cashier's Check, Certified Loan Check, or Bank Wire Transfer. All buyers will be issued a temporary buyer's tag good for 60 days from the time of sale. Vehicle must be picked up within 2 weeks after auction ends. After 2 weeks, a storage fee of $15 per day will be charged.

 

 

If I already have the title to the vehicle it will be given to you in person when you pick up the vehicle, or sent to you via FedEx if you choose to ship the vehicle. If I do not yet have the title (very few cases, but does happen sometimes because of paperwork delays), once I do receive the title (no longer than 10 days after the sale in most cases) it will be sent to you via FedEx.

Winning bidder MUST contact me within 24 hours of auction end, and make arrangements for payment at that time. If no contact is made within 24 hours I reserve the right to sell it to the next highest bidder, re-list the vehicle, or sell it elsewhere. Please do not bid on this auction unless you are serious about owning this vehicle. All non-paying high bidders will be reported to eBay. If financing, make sure your financial institution accepts the year and miles of this vehicle before bidding. Please arrange financing prior to bidding.

If you are not sure about something, please ask. Do not assume anything not listed or pictured is included. Feel free to call me (817-988-2629) or email me (bradyshort@gmail.com) for any reason. I reserve the right to cancel bids for excessive negative feedback or not enough feedback. If you have less than 2 feedbacks, please email me before bidding.

All of my vehicles are thoroughly checked out by my mechanic before they are ever put on eBay and any maintenance needs are taken care of. Most of my customers are from out of state, so I take great care to make absolutely certain (to the best of my ability) that the vehicle is in excellent mechanical (and cosmetic) condition. Please understand these are used vehicles, and may have very minor imperfections that are not noted. I try very hard to describe each vehicle accurately; however, if you have a question about something specific that you feel is not addressed adequately in the description, please call or email me.

Sometimes the vehicle may have slightly more miles on it after the auction is over than what it had when the eBay listing started. This will not be a drastic mileage increase (usually only a couple hundred miles at the most), but it does happen on occasion because of test drives and demonstrations during the auction.

I want this transaction to be as smooth and pleasant as possible. A happy buyer is a well educated buyer, so if you are in doubt about anything, please ask.
