2002 Lexus IS 300
Rare Electric Blue color !!!
Stored for the last 11 months and all winters!!
Trade In Value 5800.00
Private Party Value 8000!!!

Thank you very much for taking the time to look at my auction for my 2002 Lexus IS 300 !. I would assume by looking at this auction, you obviously have an interest in this vehicle, and with that said... let me tell you a little about it.

I purchased this car in late 2006, and searched all over from 2002 - 2006 for a IS 300 in this color!. From the moment I purchased this vehicle it has turned heads everywhere I go and has been my baby, unfortunately life happens and I no longer have the need for it as my lifestyle has changed which requires me having an SUV so I am parting with it.

I have regularly maintained this vehicle at our local Lexus Dealership ( Bett's Lexus ) while it was under warranty and I have stored in a garage every winter simply to keep it as nice as possible. I have also stored this vehicle since July of 2012 as I have needed to drive my SUV for my job, and with the children. I replaced the passengers side upper/lower control arm assembly, and the Wheel Hub/Bearings just prior to storing as those parts were needed, along with a fresh oil / transmission change/flush. 

At this time the vehicle does need the alternator replaced as I discovered it started to go out a few weeks ago after I put 100.00 battery in the vehicle, took it out to fuel it up and for a short drive on a nice day and a few days later my new battery was dead which led to the alternator being tested. I have ordered an alternator and will provide it to the winning bidder. I also have new spark plugs in the box ( though not needed ) that I purchased at the time of storing in 2012. My husband being an Import Enthusiast recently upgraded the Air Intake while it was stored as the Air Filter needed replaced with a chrome aftermarket Air Intake w/ K&N Filter. I also have the complete stock Air Intake which will be included ( and re-installed if you wish ).  We have also needed it has a very very small exhaust leak underneath at the flange as it needs a donut gasket ( 10.00 ) , however to the average person the exhaust leak would be unnoticed. 

I am re-listing this vehicle as unfortunately the individual whom purchased it for his wife decided after 2 days that it was too small as they just had twins, and have a couple of children already so I agreed to refund the amount paid which has put me in a bind as I purchased a new SUV and had to put money down, so along with this issue I need to sell by Monday so I can put that needed amount down to the dealership to keep my new vehicle.

This lexus IS 300 comes loaded with the factory leather/suede combo, premium sound system, sunroof, auto shift option etc...and the pictures do NOT do the vehicle justice. It also comes with the optional Polished wheels which really help set off the vehicle. The windows are legally tinted as well ( except the Drivers and Passengers door windows ). 

KBB on this vehicle on a private sale is 7800 - 8500 depending on zip code, so here is your chance to own below book and own a very rare car, and color for that matter that is GUARANTEED to turn heads, and hold it's value each and every year.

Thank you very much for looking and HAPPY BIDDING !.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).

Lexus IS, new and old, and LFA to make splash at SEMA

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Lexus has announced its Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show cars: a group of eight Lexus IS sedans spanning all three generations, and a 2012 LFA supercar. One of the show cars, a custom 2014 Lexus IS 350 F Sport, is a creation penned by IS fan Rob Evans, the winner of a contest to design a Lexus SEMA show car.
The standouts in the group of Lexus IS show cars, in no particular order, are a 700-horsepower 2014 Lexus IS 340 (it has a heavily modified Toyota Supra inline six swapped in, which is stroked out to 3.4 liters, hence the nomenclature change) by Philip Case and a supercharged 2004 Lexus IS 300 by Maricar Cortez. Both cars prove that oldies can be goodies - the venerable Supra 2JZTE engine, which ceased production over a decade ago, lives on in a 2014 platform, and the 2004 IS 300 gets a supercharger and remains relevant through the use of electronics, such as a back-up radar sensor, upgraded headlights and more.
Of course, the LFA by Guy S. De Alwis will be a stand out on its own, but unfortunately Lexus only provided us with a couple pictures that don't do it justice. We'll have to take a closer look at it on the show floor. Same goes for the IS penned by contest-winner Rob Evans, of which only a rendering was provided.

Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla

Tue, Jul 12 2016

Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers – over 6,100 this year – from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.
