Rochester, Michigan, United States

2001 Lexus RX300 3.0 V6 AWD 
224,000 miles 
Runs and drives flawlessly with oil changes every 4,000 miles
Digital dash, power moonroof, roof rack, privacy windows, leather interior all power, multi disk changer, rear spoiler
New shocks and struts about 10,000 miles ago which ran me over $2000 just for that.  So the ride is quite smooth very Lexus like

It does have some issues which and I will do my best to itemize everything. As you can see from the pictures the drivers side does have some cosmetic damage to the front quarter panel, and rear corner and bumper, due to a deer issue. Not horrible but it could use a repair for looks wise.  The interior has some where over many years of use but no big tears or anything, carpets are in good shape except for rear trunk area has some stains, and the drivers side is washed out from winter and salt. ABS light just came on so it's probably due for some brakes. It is missing the rear windshield wiper thanks to a car wash. And finally the biggest issue is the ignition of the car, the fob broke away from the key and the key is in the ignition, so in order to start the vehicle and shut it off you have to hold the fob against the key and turn it off and on. I would recommend a new ignition which is about $300 and a new key. 

So with that in mind is why I have priced it low, you will have no problem hopping in and driving away with it. It's been a great car to me and not to mention but it's fantastic in the winter snow.

Construction of Lexus' first US assembly line underway

Thu, 09 Jan 2014

The ES is Lexus' top-selling sedan, but the Japanese luxury marque has never manufactured it outside of Japan. In fact, Lexus has never made any cars in the United States, one of its largest markets worldwide. But that's about to change.
Yesterday, construction began in Georgetown, Kentucky, on the first Lexus assembly line in America, the first concrete (or steel) step in a $360-million expansion of Toyota's plant in the Bluegrass state that will create 750 new jobs. The expansion was announced last April by chief executive Akio Toyoda at the New York Auto Show.
Once the new assembly line gets online in the fall of next year, Toyota plans on building some 50,000 units of the ES each year. Lexus sold a record 72,581 examples of the ES in the United States last year - 30 percent more than the previous year - so Lexus will either have to import some more from overseas or leave some buyers disappointed.

Toyota may return to F1 under Lexus banner

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

A new report in from the website Club Lexus claims to have insider knowledge about a return to Formula One racing by Toyota, this time under the auspices of the Lexus brand. Toyota competed in F1 from 2002 through the 2009 season. That final year saw the team return competitive, if inconsistent results, but the larger economic woes in the automotive market made a decision to pull the plug relatively easy at the time.
Now, citing recent interviews with Toyota executives and insider sources, Club Lexus says that the move to re-enter F1 for the 2014 season is "all but finalized." The choice to go with the Lexus nameplate over Toyota makes some sense, too, considering the success that rival Infiniti has had in recent years through its partnership with Red Bull Racing. Further, the emerging Lexus identity as a performance car builder, with a strong background in hybrid vehicles, could help the F1 move resonate with buyers.
A few technological factors and formula changes within F1 offer some credence to the Lexus rumor, too. F1 will increase the available capacity of KERS from 60kW to 120kW, a change that theoretically benefits the hybrid-savvy Toyota. What's more, 2014 will see a switch from the current 2.4-liter V8 engines to 1.6-liter turbocharged V6s. A Lexus team that goes racing in 2014 will be on a level playing field with the rest of the grid then, with all teams adjusting to and continuing to develop the new engines.

2013 Lexus ES earns five stars from NHTSA

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

The 2013 Lexus ES has earned a five-star crash rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The 2013 ES 350 and ES 300h hybrid earned the highest ratings in each of the government's crash evaluations, including overall driver safety, frontal crashes and overall side impacts, save one. The sedan only achieved a four-star rating in the NHTSA rollover protection test, but that fault wasn't enough to keep the vehicle from earning a five-star designation overall.
The announcement doesn't mention the recent Consumer Reports claim that the ES comes with a faulty emergency trunk release that can be easily broken in a panic situation.
As you may recall, the 2013 ES 350 carries an MSRP of $36,100, plus an $895 destination fee and offers buyers a 268-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 good for 248 pound-feet of torque, as well. The ES 300h, meanwhile, stickers at $38,850 plus the same destination charge.
