Due to winning bidder from Knoxville not being about to come up with the money according to clear instructions stated in ebay listing, I must re-list. Up for ebay auction today is something very special and hard to find...a low mile 2008 Lexus GS460 Mark Levinson edition luxury sedan with every option offered, top of the line, V8, it has it all. Beautiful condition inside and out, runs like an Indy car and luxuries inside like a millionaire's yacht. There are two known GS460 models in all of Kansas City proper, and she owns one of them. If you want the best Lexus they make, and every known option including navigation, sensors, automatic rear shade, tint, sunroof, auto, full leather seating, all airbags every direction, heated seats, the list goes on and on. I suggest you Google this model for all the options on a "Mark Levinson" model, it would take up a full page. Speaking of Mark Levinson, this is the finest car audio in existence, and one of the main reasons I purchased the car for her. She loves her stereo and nothing beats the quality, this option alone is in the $6000+ range! Speakers everywhere in this treasure. Every navigation and electronic button works like it should, auto climate, so many I can't keep up with all the electronic marvels. If there's an option you desire, ask me about it and I'll reply "yes" because this model has everything in the catalog. Exterior is amazingly beautiful and straight, pearl white, with the very minor highway chip here and there but it's hard to spot from 6 ft. away, you'd have to get up close. Any time I sell one of my collectible cars I have to mention that it's a previously-owned car, not a brand new off the dealer showroom floor car...so please, expect a little wear somewhere. But I can't find any dents or dings anywhere, maybe hood chips if you look, but overall...this Lexus is in amazing condition! Look at the pictures! Enlarge them with the ebay cursor...you'll be hard pressed to find a 2008 nicer than this one. Good luck with that search. Am I bragging? Yeah, a little, can't help it on this example. It's always been garage stored and looks it. Paint glistens in the sun, always professionally detailed during the year, always maintained at our Lexus dealership in town. Whatever it needs along the way, it gets. Considering this vehicle retailed new at $64,000, you are buying a Lexus that most will not have seen...a V8 GS460, limited production and marketed mainly to the West and East coast dealers with scattered southern state availability. Included in the sale: original FOB transponder key with newer battery so you won't have to bother with that for a few years use, all original owner's manuals, any paperwork associated to the car that might be in the glovebox. All four original Lexus stitched floor mats come with, all have been professionally cleaned and detailed with the car itself and located in the trunk. GS460 uses premium gasoline and I will fill the tank for the new owner so you can get in and drive home without stopping at the gas station. I think that covers it. My wife has owned and enjoyed this Lexus from 7600 miles to its current number, and drives it daily so that number could change by the time you win the bid. Once the reserve has been met, she will park it in the garage with a tarp over it and from that point on...it sits until a new owner is determined. The salvage title represents an early wreck and insurance claim dealer repair in California from owner number one. We are owner #2. Everything was Lexus dealer serviced/repaired and inspected before insurance sale bidding began. If you know anything about insurance claim sales, they repair the vehicles at the factory dealership of the car. No aftermarket parts or subpar mechanics used. Expensive, Lexus-trained personnel and expensive Lexus OEM parts only used on this one. That's why I purchased it in the first place! You won't notice a thing different between this vehicle or a clear title Lexus other than the title stating as such. Drives like a low mile sedan, performs in every way without hitch, no known current issues you need to deal with...Lexus is ready for sale and because of that salvage title, you will own something special, out of reach financially for most, but for a price most successful people could afford. No one will own a nicer Lexus anywhere, in any city for this reasonable of a price because I purchased the car correctly from day one. I will not give the Lexus away for Volkswagen money, just being as honest as I can be upfront so you don't get your hopes up and want to lowball and waste time. This is a luxury supercar loaded and scarce on the market, running perfect and looking as nice as any 2008 on anyone's lot in America. It's been taken care of by a local celebrity mortgage executive and it shows. She wanted a car that nobody else was driving around town and one that had all the options Lexus offers. Also of note: never ever smoked in...owner is non-smoker. That's important to me when buying a car and I know it's important to many. If this is something you are ready for, get your finances in order, make a decision to own, not just bid for bidding sake...and somebody is going to hit the jackpot today on this gem. 2008 Lexus GS460 Mark Levinson sedan is sold "as is/where is" from Kansas City, MO, 64111. There are no warranties expressed or implied. Buyer must satisfy payment in full within 3 days after auction end. Wired funds to the Kansas City Policemen's Credit Union are accepted, must settle before transfer of any property. Cash in hand is also acceptable before any property transfer takes place. Do not show up with cashier's check in hand and expect to drive away, that's not happening. Any funds must settle or clear credit union before any title signing or transport of vehicle, no exceptions whatsoever. If any of these rules are not acceptable to you, please do not bid. I am a serious seller and this is a serious machine selling for serious money. I have salvage title in hand, and that title will be signed over, dated, in full compliance once funds have been satisfied to me, the owner. If you have a problem with buying salvage title cars, please do not bid. Thousands of salvage title cars sell every day on ebay and all have insurable, loanable titles just like clear "non-salvage" but for any reason you are not comfortable with this, please let someone else buy the car. Every car sale I make goes through smooth as silk and I consider salvage car buying the ultimate "deal" in the car buying market. Once payment is made in full to the seller's satisfaction, transport home of your Lexus is next on the schedule. It is up to you, the buyer, totally to take care of transport arrangements with various companies or paid drivers, etc. You handle all the details of transport. Can you drive this car home? Of course you can, and if you're within driving distance...that's what I'd do. I would get in this beauty and drive to any point on the map, it's serviced, it's comfortable, and you'll never drive anything like it on the highway. Power galore and quiet interior, smooth handling. If you're a buyer who likes to keep the miles down and want a rollaway transport, then make arrangements. Please keep in mind, if you're not familiar with the GS460 that it sits rather low to the ground and needs a rollaway type transport or car-specific company to do the hauling. Like BMW, Mercedes, Audi and such, you are buying a high end luxury sedan that needs proper treatment when transporting. You're buying something special, don't let just anybody haul it to save a $100 bucks! Almost done...I will hold the car, undriven in my garage, for a couple weeks while you get your business together on transport, but need to be paid in full...I repeat...PAID IN FULL within 3 days time after auction end. 3 days time after auction end. 3 days after auction end I want paid in full. 3 days after auction is over, I need the car to be paid for in full. Everybody understand? Good. That means during the bidding process, I want you to go to your bank and prequalify for the purchase and prepare yourself like I do when buying something of substance. Don't wait until the end, find out you've won, then casually go to the bank and start the process. If you do not have the money (as my Knoxville, TN bidder did not) in your bank account or accessible immediately, I do not want you to bid on the car and waste my time and yours. I don't know how much more clear I have to put this. I'm a busy man, wife is a busy woman, you're probably busy as well. Excuses are for somebody else, I only want people of means to bid. If this is too much for you to handle, go elsewhere, what more can I say? My reserve price is not a lot of money in my world. And if you aren't the winner and ask for a second chance...act upon that second chance offer! I'll email the winner with my phone number and expect a call back and money paid in full within 3 days and let's move this sale along. There is an epidemic of ebay bidders who don't pay when they bid for some reason. Nobody with zero feedback is allowed to bid or with negative feedback. Your bids will be canceled. I want a successful, money-earning man or woman to buy this Lexus. Excuses are for somebody else. I'm reasonable, I'm fair, but eventually I want my garage space back so do not pay for the car and a month later show up to take it home. Please, pick up the Lexus within a couple weeks time, is that too much to ask? I don't think so. I'll work with you but let's keep the time frame reasonable for both the buyer and seller. I think that covers it. Good luck to all bidders and I know she is going to miss this treasure, it has served her well these past 4+ years of ownership, loved every day of it. I doubt we'll ever own something this nice again, maybe, but doubtful. What's nicer than a GS460 Mark Levinson? Not much in that price range, I can tell you that. Somebody is going to love this car. Let the bidding begin... |

Lexus recalling 3,000 NX 200t CUVs for faulty brake system part
Wed, May 27 2015Lexus is recalling about 3,000 examples of the 2015 NX 200t in the US because of possible damage to the ABS actuator during assembly. On vehicles with the faulty part, the anti-lock brakes, traction control and stability control might not function properly. If the ABS is activated while driving, it could cause "a loss of vehicle stability," according to the company. No crashes, injuries, or fatalities have been reported. According to company spokesperson Cindy Knight to Autoblog, affected owners will receive notification by mail of this problem in early July. Dealers will inspect the actuator on the NX200t and will replace it, if necessary. Related Video: LEXUS RECALLS CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2015 NX VEHICLES TORRANCE, Calif., May 27, 2015 – Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. today announced that it is conducting a safety recall of approximately 3,000 model year 2015 Lexus NX 200t vehicles. The involved vehicles are equipped with an Anti-Lock Braking system (ABS), Traction Control System (TRAC), and Vehicle Stability Control System (VSC) which are controlled by the ABS actuator. There is a possibility that a component inside the actuator could be damaged during assembly and later not operate properly. Under some driving conditions, if the ABS is activated, this could cause a loss of vehicle stability, which can increase the risk of a crash. To date, Toyota is not aware of any crashes, injuries or fatalities caused by this condition. All known owners of the involved Lexus vehicles will be notified by first class mail. Lexus dealers will inspect the ABS actuator and if necessary replace it with a new one. Information about automotive recalls, including but not limited to the list of involved vehicles, is subject to change over time. For the most up-do-date recall information, customers should contact Toyota Customer Service at 1-800-331-4331, or Lexus Customer Service at 1-800-255-3987. Customers can also access current information on open safety recalls for their vehicles by visiting www.toyota.com/recall or http://www.safercar.gov/ and entering their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). ###
8 things you should know about the Lexus LC 500h powertrain
Thu, Feb 18 2016Lexus unveiled the LC 500h today in The Netherlands, and I got to take a look inside its new hybrid system. On one hand it seems like a box of magic – it combines two seemingly incompatible transmission types into one package. But that's also the ingenious simplicity of the thing. We don't have all of the details on how it all works yet, but here's a rundown of the high points.Efficient business in front, low-key party in the back. What makes it all work is the mullet of transmissions. For the new hybrid transmission, Lexus used the Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive/Lexus Hybrid System – which consists of an e-CVT with a planetary gearset and two electric motors (one for charging the battery, the other for motivation and regen) – and grafted a conventional four-speed automatic onto the back. The two units actually coexist in one package, with the e-CVT making things efficient and the automatic expanding the capabilities. So at the low end, the system can deliver more torque, and the engine can also run at lower rpm on the highway. It's all thanks to those fixed gear ratios, and it's surprisingly simple.Except it's not that simple. This is where the virtual gear ratios come in. Like current Lexus hybrids, the system has ratios it can call up with the e-CVT. In this case, there are six virtual ratios to complement the four real physical ratios, for a total of 10 "gears" at the transmission's disposal. (Not coincidentally, the V8 LC 500 coupe has a 10-speed automatic.) One of the four fixed gears is always engaged when the car is moving, so the 10 ratios come about from combinations of what the e-CVT in front and the automatic in the back are doing. In other words, all 10 ratios are variations on the four fixed gear ratios, which means that all 10 gears could be considered virtual.It won't use all the gears all the time. In Eco mode, the car will start off on electric power and skip the first couple of "gears." When it's set to Sport or Sport +, the engine will be engaged from a stop and the transmission will select the lowest ratio. The sportier modes will also ignore the top couple of gear ratios.It can drive faster with the engine off. In a Lexus GS 450h with the Lexus Hybrid System, for example, at speeds above 62 mph or so the engine has to start up. This is because something needs to take up some slack from the battery-charging motor-generator or else it will start spinning too quickly.
Lexus LS spied wearing googly-eyed mask [UPDATE]
Tue, May 17 2016UPDATE: Judging by this mule's dash-to-axle ratio, we think it's probably an LS sedan, not an ES as previously identified. The text below has been updated. Wow. Take a good look at those headlights! As you can see from the images in the gallery above, Lexus is hard at work on the next generation of its luxurious LS sedan. The massive appendages affixed to the front of this mule make us wonder what's going on behind those fake headlights – we'd expect some fancy LED units on the production model. Ditto for the rear, where those equally tacked-on taillights will be replaced with a fancier set with upward-sweeping light bars. Getting past the crazy eyeballs, it seems that Lexus will continue refining its current styling language with the next LS. There's sure to be a pinched Spindle grille, and a long wheelbase ought to offer plenty of space for four adult-size occupants. Whereas the IS and larger GS carry the brand's sportier aspirations, going up against the likes of BMW and Mercedes-Benz, the LS will continue to be aimed at a more relaxed luxury buyer. Interestingly, our spy shooters were quick to point out that Lexus brought along 5 Series and 7 Series sedans to compare with its next LS. In any case, we wouldn't expect any significant changes to excite the enthusiast crowd. Related Video:
