Up for sale is a rare 2001 Lexus IS 300 Sportcross wagon.  Because so few were made (less than 3000), it's been called an unintended exotic that you rarely see on the road, especially in this condition.

I bought the car 7 yrs ago and it's been garaged, maintained and meticulously kept since I brought it home.  Oil changed every 3-4000 miles, recent timing belt & brakes.  I had it repainted last year as the bumpers were scuffed, the hood chipped and some nitwit hit the drivers door.  I replaced the windshield and use a separate set of Mille Miglia winter wheels with snows to protect the custom painted & polished OEM wheels.

I installed an SRT intake and custom magnaflow exhaust that sounds great under acceleration, not loud & cheesey.  It adds about 10-15 hp that is noticeable when compared to stock. 

The interior is in excellent condition.  The woodgrain dash kit was professionally installed and brightens up the inside without looking cheap.  I replaced the passeger seat (see the dog in the photos?) and will include the original with the car if the buyer wishes.

When you go to sell a car, one usually has to spend a couple hours detailing the interior, exterior and engine bay for the photos.  In this case, that's how the car is all the time I've owned it.  Clean and very well cared for.

The only items of note are that the CD player doesn't work, a couple of window-tint spots, a small, soft dent in the front left fender and a crack on the rear bumper as shown in the photos.  The car has never broken down, been in a serious accident and is inspected through 2015.

Google self-driving Lexus crashes into a bus

Mon, Feb 29 2016

Google's self-driving cars have been in accidents before, but always on the receiving end... at least, until now. The company has filed a California DMV accident report (PDF) confirming that one of its autonomous vehicles (a Lexus RX450h) collided with a bus in Mountain View. The crash happened when the robotic SUV had to go into the center lane to make a right turn around some sand bags – both the vehicle and its test driver incorrectly assumed that a bus approaching from behind would slow or stop to let the car through. The Lexus smacked into the side of the bus at low speed, damaging its front fender, wheel and sensor in the process. This was a minor incident, and we're happy to report that there were no injuries. However, this might be the first instance where one of Google's self-driving cars caused an accident. If so, the Mountain View crew can no longer say it's an innocent dove on the roads -- while this wasn't a glitch, its software made a decision that led to a crash. We've reached out to Google to see if it can elaborate on what happened. No matter what the response, it was always going to be difficult to avoid this kind of incident. Until self-driving cars can anticipate every possible road hazard, there's always a chance that they'll either be confused or make choices with unexpected (and sometimes unfortunate) consequences. However, the hope at this early stage isn't to achieve a flawless track record. Instead, it's to show that self-driving cars can be safer overall than their human-piloted counterparts.Related Video:This article by Jon Fingas originally ran on Engadget, the definitive guide to this connected life.

Physical and virtual gaming worlds collide in Lexus IS Hybrid promo

Fri, 13 Sep 2013

This is really, really cool. In order to promote its new IS Hybrid, Lexus borrowed an airplane hangar, a former Formula One driver and what we imagine was some serious technological knowhow to create one of the most interesting games we've ever seen. It's called Trace Your Road.
Lexus invited some of its Facebook fans out for the game, which put them in the passenger seat of a Lexus IS Hybrid with former F1 shoe Jarno Trulli. They were then handed a tablet and asked to trace out a road, which was projected onto the floor of the hangar. Trulli had to follow the ever-changing path as his passenger kept on tracing away. It looks like it'd be an absolute riot.
This is probably the coolest automotive promotional video since Audi strapped paintball guns on a couple of RS4s. Take a look below to watch the full video from Lexus. We promise, it's worth two minutes of your time.
