Rare 2008 Lexus Gs460 4.6l V8 Mark Levinson Luxury Sedan * Low Miles * Nav *auto on 2040-cars
Kansas City, Missouri, United States
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... |

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
Jaguar solution to keyless start could save lives
Mon, May 14 2018UPDATED: An earlier version of this story indicated the Jaguar keyless start function was meant as a safety feature, when in fact, it is meant as a convenience one and will not work as described if automatic stop/start is not engaged. Today, The New York Times published an article about more than two dozen deaths related to drivers accidentally leaving their cars running, closing their garages and later succumbing to carbon monoxide that flooded their homes. The reason has been identified as "keyless start" features, or proximity entry and push-button start, where owners don't need to physically handle a key or fob to gain entry into the vehicle or start it. It is the latest, and deadliest, issue raised with this system after those related to security and simple inconvenience (for instance, leaving the car at a valet or car wash with the fob in your pocket). From my personal perspective, The New York Times had a rather harsh "evil carmakers" tone throughout the article. This is not a matter of a known faulty component, as with the GM ignition switch recall. This has as much to do with user error where people leave their car without pressing the "off" button and without noticing the engine is still running. About half of the cars in question are produced by Toyota and Lexus, brands that have offered keyless start longer than most. They are also brands with high rates of elderly owners, who seemingly made up a majority of reported deaths and injuries. One fire department in Florida even started a campaign alerting those in the area of the dangers of leaving your car running when it noticed a correlation between an increase in cars equipped with keyless start and calls related to carbon monoxide poisoning. I see several contributing issues at play, most of which go well beyond this particular issue. First is insufficient training of owners by dealers and/or owners not paying close enough attention during this training. Cars are complicated, but you should at least know how basic functions work. Second, woefully inadequate driver training in this country. Third, and with apologies to the AARP, insufficient testing of elderly drivers and/or insufficiently low standards for elderly drivers. If you don't know you have to shut the car off or cannot hear that an engine is running, perhaps you shouldn't be driving. Fourth, re-examining keyless start systems.
Toyota reveals latest autonomous tech test bed
Fri, Mar 3 2017Toyota revealed its latest autonomous technology effort Friday, a sophisticated Lexus LS 600hL prototype that showcases its plans to advance in the emerging field. The Lexus is the first developed entirely by the company's in-house Toyota Research Institute and it will focus on the car's ability to learn and see behavior on the road. Toyota is showing the car at the Prius Challenge event at Sonoma Raceway. The Lexus uses Lidar, radar, and sensors, which potentially reduce reliance on mapping. The prototype advances Toyota's last concept vehicle shown at the Consumer Electronics Show in 2013. This one is said to be more flexible and it will focus on Toyota's two autonomous tech pillars, called Guardian and Chauffeur. Guardian is meant to improve safety features, while Chauffeur moves toward full autonomy. "We believe Guardian can probably be deployed sooner and more widely than Chauffeur, providing high-level driver-assist features capable of helping mitigate collisions and save lives, sooner rather than later," Toyota Research Institute Gill Pratt said in a statement.
