1997 Lexus Lx450 Base Sport Utility 4-door 4.5l, No Rserve, Garage Kept on 2040-cars
Castro Valley, California, United States

Selling this well maintained 1997 Lexus LX450. Originally purchased for my Lake Tahoe house but a Mercedes Benz 4-Matic wagon was just inherited. Therefore, we are passing this well maintained "Toyota Landcruiser" on to the next snow loving family. It was originally a lease when the current owner purchased it as a CPO-Certified Pre-Owned in 2001. It has a clean CARFAX and clean title. It has been lovingly maintained by a scientist, who would purchase another one today. There is a stack of maintenance records. It still rides on Michelin tires with decent tread. The tires can get you through the summer but I would personally change them for winter driving. The glass is all good, the interior is decent with the exception of the front seats. "KOBE"beef is tasty but the hides are not good for seating surfaces. Just kidding. The second row is in good shape. The third row most likely has never been used based upon the condition. The carpets are not stained. The headliner does not sag. The sunroof slides and tilts freely. If you've NEVER driven an FJ80 in the snow, be prepared for one of the most "sure footed" vehicles ever in the snow. They don't say, "Oh, what a feeling for nothing". I have owned Landcruiser's in the past and they are in my own humble opinion, one of a KIND. It may have 207,551 but when you drive it, it drive nice and sturdy. It will go another 207 if maintained to the letter. Why spend more money than you need?? This one is selling for NO RESERVE. Final bid gets to take her home to enjoy.
With all my auctions, a few requirements. First, NO PAYPAL. Second, any and all bidders with less than 10 feedback and/or negative feedback need to contact me prior to bidding with their name and contact number or your bid will be cancelled and your user id blocked from additional bidding. Third, you are bidding to OWN, not make excuses. Also selling in AS-IS, Where-Is condition with NO Warranties, expressed nor implied. Seller has represented vehicle to the best of his knowledge and makes no representations as to the condition of the vehicle that are unknown to seller at time of sale. Vehicle is also advertised locally and seller reserves right to end auction early and cancel all bids if sold outside of ebay. Any and all bidders can email for a buy it now if they cannot wait until the end of the auction.
So, with a great "Lexus/Toyota" leap, let the auction begin.

Updated Lexus CT200h coming next year, new variants reported
Thu, 10 Oct 2013Lexus has had a minor success on its hands with the CT200h, a funky, five-door, sport-luxury hybrid that burst onto the scene in 2011, and managed just over 17,000 US sales in 2012. Worked out to a monthly average, that's nearly 50 percent more units per month than Lexus initially targeted when the car went on sale.
Though it's done well, the CT has been left behind while designers and engineers have reworked the rest of the Lexus lineup, bringing out fully revamped versions of the GS, IS and LS over the past few years. According to a report from Down Under, though, the little CT will get some attention soon.
Speaking to Sean Hanley, boss of Lexus Australia, Aussie site The Motor Report picked up a telling quote about the execs affections for the CT, when he said, "We see the CT200h as our greatest opportunity." Hanley added that a refresh of the CT could happen early in 2014, while a clean-sheet reworking would happen around 2016.
Florida police officer injured by DUI suspect after traffic stop
Thu, Jan 8 2015What started as a fairly normal traffic stop for Sergeant Kerstan Tatro ended with him lying on the ground with a compound fracture in his arm. The policeman in Gulf Breeze, FL, pulled over a woman driving a Lexus SC 430 because her erratic driving suggested that she might be under the influence. It all went well until Tatro asked the driver to perform a field sobriety test and she sped away partially trapping the officer in the car. It was all captured by the cruiser's dashcam. As the woman started to drive away, Tatro tried to grab for the keys. He was too late, though, and she got on the gas. The Lexus ran over the officer's foot and caused the serious injury to his arm. Thankfully, bystanders were at the policeman's side within a few seconds of him being hurt. By coincidence, even Tatro's daughter was driving by the time, and was pretty shaken by her dad's condition. According to the Pensacola News Journal, a witness to the officer's injuries followed the woman to a hotel parking lot and told police where she was. They allegedly found drugs in her possession. Below is a video from the Pensacola News Journal interviewing Tatro, and he gives a thorough account of exactly what happened. This content is hosted by a third party.

Toyota to enter modern turbo four-cylinder era with Lexus crossover
Tue, 25 Jun 2013Toyota has sat quietly on the sidelines as many of its competitors have armed themselves in recent years with lower-displacement turbocharged four-cylinder engines in an effort to gain better fuel efficiency numbers and flatter power curves. It's a strategy largely shared by fellow countryman Honda, who turned away from offering forced-induction four-cylinder models in North America after its first-generation Acura RDX failed to find buyers. Toyota itself has no lack of experience with turbo fours, having built some humdingers for cars like the MR2 and Celica All-Trac back in the 80s and 90s. It's also offered factory-warranted turbos through its TRD performance parts division more recently.
Now, Automotive News is reporting that the world's largest automaker is finally poised to rejoin the turbo-four production-car fray in North America, but it won't be a sports car that delivers the first force-fed punch, it will be a new small crossover model for Lexus. We first showed you spy shots of the NX last week in mule form, and Automotive News says the small softroader will carry a 2.0-liter turbo four in its engine bay when it rolls on to world markets in 2014 or early 2015. That model, the NX 200t, will be joined by the NX 300h, a hybrid variant. It isn't immediately clear when US buyers will see the turbo model, however, it's possible that the hybrid could bow first - the story quotes an anonymous company source suggesting that Americans might not see the engine offering until sometime in 2015.
AN further posits that the new 2.0-liter will likely supplant the company's 2.5-liter V6 in the IS sedan and the same-displacement four-cylinder in the Toyota RAV4, but does not indicate where the new engine will be built.
