This vehicle currently does NOT RUN RIGHT.  I've owned this SUV for about 3 years. Here's what I know about it: 


GOOD STUFF: 
1999 Lexus RX300 AWD V6 motor with approximately 190,000 miles with tan leather interior and a "bronze and gray" two-tone colored exterior. Put a new battery $80 on it last fall, new struts/shocks put on last fall $400, new brakes $74, and a new set of $800 tires with less than 1,000 miles on them. Just had the transmission fluid and filter changed, which was $147 before it was parked. Always had the oil changed at 3,000 miles. Put a new OCV for the right hand side $100. The sound system is excellent with a built in 6 disc CD changer. Has the auto climate control. Heated seats. Moonroof and alloy wheels. Clean clear title in hand and ready to transfer. I only have one key for it. Other than a few surface scratches the exterior is in good condition. Interior is in fair condition. Needs to be detailed.

BAD STUFF: 
I parked it last fall and I think I drove it one time this past winter. When I went out to start it this spring, it had to be jump started because the battery was dead. It has a brand new battery on it that I purchased last fall, so there may be a short somewhere. After jump starting it, it would not run right. The interior lights and the headlights are flickering the whole time and when I put it in drive it dies. The A/C compressor had went out last fall, so that is one thing that I know will need to be replaced. The interior could use a good cleaning, but isn't in bad shape - the driver's seat is ripped on the side where you get in and out. The last known issue is that you can only put 8 gallons of gas in at a fill up. Its been that way since I bought it and the buyer did not make me aware of the issue. I'm not sure what needs to be done to fix that problem, but I've just dealt with the entire time I've had it.

So, after reading all of that please understand that I've been completely honest about the SUV and NO, I'M NOT SURE WHATS WRONG WITH IT AND NO, I DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS SOMETHING MAJOR OR SOMETHING SMALL, BUT IT WILL NEED TO BE HAULED / TOWED. WILL NEED TO BE TRANSFERRED OUT OF MY NAME AND TAXES TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER BEFORE IT LEAVES THE HOUSE. CURRENTLY LICENSED TIL NOVEMBER in Kentucky. 

Buyer is to make a $500 deposit within 24 hours of the auction close. If there is a remaining balance on the vehicle, that is to be paid within 7 days of the purchase date. Buyer assumes the responsibility of arranging the haul of the vehicle. If you are a buyer from out of state, you will need to find out what forms that your state requires for licensing. If you wanted to buy the SUV just for parts, I will expect you to pay for the junk title fee. This vehicle is sold AS IS with no warranty implied. Do not bid unless you are willing to pay.

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.

Lexus teases Frankfurt Motor Show concept... is it the RC Coupe?

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

With the teaser image of the concept car above and the announcement that Lexus will be premiering it to the world at the Frankfurt Motor Show on Tuesday, September 10, you know pretty much what we know. The Japanese luxury brand has decided to to say nothing more. Picture sleuthers have, however, suggested that it is a conceptual preview of either the RC Coupe or the hotter RC-F that will be revealed in Tokyo, or, less likely, the coming NX crossover - and that covers all the bases that we know of.
Along with that, Europeans will get to lay eyes on the GS 300h for the first time, the sport sedan powered by Lexus' 2.5L hybrid powertrain. You'll find a skosh more information in the press release below.

April Fools' Day brings Jeep Sedan, Hyundai N Roadster, Toyota Yaris pickup and more

Mon, Apr 1 2019

There is one day out of the year when public relations professionals have permission to lie to journalists and to the public: April Fools' Day. Manufacturers release details about wild, weird and wacky new technology, concept vehicles and services. Some take it to obvious outlandish extremes (Jeep Sedan anybody?), while others plot to mislead with products that are just outside the realm of possibility. Check out all the "jokes" below. BMW Motorrad BMW doesn't want to exclude anybody from experiencing the thrill of high-level racing, so it is introducing 'iRace" autonomous programming on its S 1000 RR sport bike. It includes beginner, sportsman, advanced and unlimited driving modes, and stores GPS information for all Superbike world championship tracks. Hyundai Hyundai is wrong for this. The Hyundai N Roadster is the work of South Korean designer Yeonjoon Park and features a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, rear-wheel drive and a hard convertible top. Hyundai says this is a "concept (for now)," but we think it'd make a seriously great Mazda Miata competitor. Honda Honda wins the award for the best interactive gimmick, as its press release for the '90s-inspired special-edition Pastport includes a live hotline number with a message from Fred Savage. Call 1-833-PASTPORT for more information. Jeep Put the Jeep Cherokee face on the Chrysler 300's body, and voila! The 2019 Jeep Sedan is born. We can't decide if the name or the rendering is better. Land Rover Accessibility to charging ports is of major concern to anybody with a plug-in vehicle. So, with the recent launch of the Range Rover P400e and Range Rover Sport P400e, Land Rover is putting forth an effort to install more stations around the globe. First up is Scotland's Isle of Skye. Adventurers need juice too! Lexus Australia Lexus expands its Encore service to include doggos. The new service, called Enpaw, will take pups to luxury boarding kennels in style. Toyota U.S. Toyota created the Yaris Adventure pickup for "those who want to tell their friends they own a truck but never veer off pavement." It's part Mazda 2, part RAV4, 100 percent ute and it looks ... great? Creating a new segment might be all fun and games to Toyota, but Ford is reportedly considering a Focus-based ute in a similar, albeit larger, style. Toyota Australia Toyota is launching a new HiAce van, and it's already getting a limited-edition variant called the PieAce.
