1998 Lexus Gs300 Base Sedan 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
This is a NO RESERVE auction for a 1998 Lexus GS300 that I had acquired from a government seizure auction for my own personal use. I was picking up vehicles for my business and came across this wonderful car. This vehicle was seized by a state government agency and sold to me at auction last year. It RUNS AND DRIVES ABSOLUTELY GREAT!! The transmission shifts nice and smooth and the engine runs GREAT with no problems or noises. It has NO NOISE, NO LEAKS, NO RUST, NO MAJOR DENTS OR SCRATCHES!! Since I had it, it has been absolutely maintained and driven with care by me. I have ALL THE MAINTENANCE RECORDS ON IT THE WHOLE TIME IT HAS BEEN IN MY POSSESSION!! This vehicle has always had and still has NO MAJOR PROBLEMS AT ALL the whole time I have had it!! It is a 1998 and I have medical issues and am distributing some of my business vehicles and I am now including this one which I had for my own personal use. It has 140,221 miles on it which I think is not bad for this car at all!! All power accessories work great with no flaws!! It runs very quiet its really smooth to drive. It has the 3.0L engine which is really great on gas. I did not put any custom parts or alterations to this vehicle. The LEATHER IS IN GREAT SHAPE as you can see in the pictures!! The tires are very well treaded with about 9/32 tread on them as you can also see in the pics. This is a very good price for this car, however it is still a 1998 and over 10 years old and has wear and tear for its year and minor scuffs and scratches. Yet this is still a VERY GOOD price for this car! It has a 'buy it now' price on it, but I think that usually goes away after a bid is placed. As I mentioned that I have a medical issues and am distributing out some of my business vehicles and do require that the winning bidders follow though with the terms of the auction. I do not usually deal with eBay, so there's lack of feedback, however I did recently sell a few vehicles on here with GREAT results. Therefore if you have any questions or would like to view the vehicle for yourself, feel free to call me at 773-219-1604. Please also note: I will assist with shipping if needed as I did with my last 2 buyers when they purchased my vehicles from me, I have good sources and good location and will have no problem in assisting. Thanks and good luck bidding.

TMG still developing Lexus LS Sports 650 [w/video]
Wed, 21 Aug 2013If you're going to make a super sedan, you'd better do it in Germany. That's where Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz do it, along with third parties like Alpina, Brabus and G-Power, among others. Deutschland is the epicenter of the movement, regularly churning out the most powerful four-door rockets in the world. It's also where one of the racing divisions for Toyota has been hard at work on the TMG Sports 650.
Toyota Motorsport GmbH started with a Lexus LS and turned it into a 641-horsepower, twin-turbocharged super sedan it revealed late last year at the Essen Motor Show. But though we haven't heard much about it since then, the team behind Toyota's F1 and Le Mans efforts are apparently still hard at work on the project.
Speaking with Lexus' own UK blog, TMG chief Alastair Moffitt revealed that the project started way back in 2010, shortly after Toyota shut down its F1 program and left the racing team with nothing to do. The 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 was initially producing as much as 800 horsepower, but has since been refined to 650 so that it could theoretically be put into production and onto the road.
Updated 2016 Lexus LX 570 bows in Monterey
Fri, Aug 14 2015Lexus just pulled the wraps off its 2016 LX 570, and though the updates are minor, they're long overdue. A new one-piece spindle grille – framed by a satin chrome trim – defines the front end aesthetically, and adds a more aggressive look, bringing the eight-passenger SUV up to speed with Lexus's current design language. New LED headlights, turn signals, and foglights further distinguish the front end. The LX 570 adds new wheels, the standard 20-inch split 10-spoke wheels, with an available 21-inch option. While the new LX keeps the brawny 5.7-liter V8 – rated at 383 horsepower, with 403 pound-feet of torque available at 3,600 rpm – it adds a new transmission. For 2016 the LX 570 drops the six-speed in favor of a new eight-speed automatic transmission. This combination means the LX is capable of towing 7,000 pounds, and we expect the 4WD system – the LX flaunts its Toyota Land Cruiser roots – to be as formidable as on the current model. Drivers will appreciate the new Drive Mode Select, which adjusts throttle and suspension calibration with the turn of a dial. The system works in conjunction with the adaptive variable suspension, which adjusts damping, and makes for a smoother ride in the cabin. Drivers can choose from four modes: Eco, Comfort, Sport, and Sport +. The LX gets more standard safety features for 2016, including the Lexus Safety System+, a blind spot monitoring system with rear cross traffic alert, and a tire-specific TPS that gives pressure readings for each tire. Additionally, the multimedia system gets a boost with a new 12.3-inch screen with a remote-touch interface. The Panoramic View Monitor, and "Climate Concierge" are now standard features, while a heads-up display is now an available option. Scroll down for the full details in the press release.

Lexus says it's not worried about LS sales decline in face of S-Class, Model S
Fri, 04 Jul 2014The Lexus LS is old. Sure, it received a refresh for model year 2013, but it hasn't had a clean-sheet redesign since George W. Bush was in office. It's the oldest vehicle in its segment, debuting in 2007, a full year before the current-gen BMW 7 Series, two years before the Hyundai Equus and Jaguar XJ and three years before the Audi A8.
This is particularly troubling as buyers flock to the heavily redesigned Mercedes-Benz S-Class, which debuted late last year, and the all-electric Tesla Model S. Despite this move, though, Lexus is (worryingly in our minds) not at all concerned.
"We don't feel it's a problem with the car," Brian Smith, VP of marketing for Lexus, told Wards Auto. "Many of the buyers in that segment want what's new and they're trying it."
