Perfect Start For Your Safari-offroad Landcruiser (lexus Lx450) on 2040-cars

The LX450 (Landcruiser) has 260k+ miles as it was used as a transport vehicle on the freeway for deliveries between Southern and Northern California. 
As I'm told, the engine had been replaced about est. 45/50k ago. My business partner owned the vehicle since it had 10k miles, since then its been highway miles. Im sure maybe a CARFAX report might have further info you might need. 

The overall condition is good considering its age and whatever you intend on using it for. 
All the seats (3rd row) are there (usually missing on Landcruisers) allowing seating up to 7/8 passengers. All the electric windows/sunroof  work including the manual sliding rear back windows only found on the Lexus models. Dash and console in perfect condition. Needs a carpet shampoo but otherwise good as well (if making this a true offroad SUV, I would suggest Rhino Lining floors). The leather seats are as you would expect on an SUV this age but better than some of the others for sale on the market. I have some new generic seat covers on the front seats but would recommend investing on custom fitted seat covers available anywhere online.   

I would recommend changing all the belts, replacing the radiator, replacing gaskets, fluids and tune-up. This week the battery finally died. (jumps perfect) 
I say all this as I hope if you are buying this or any other used SUV, you personally confirm everything is in perfect order.

If you"re look for a good start for putting together a Safari Landcruiser, this is it. 
The price is lower than most you'll find available on Ebay, Forums and other places. Currently there is a few Toyota versions for sale locally that are similar in condition, miles and price however one year older.     

I moved it to Las Vegas a bit ago while considering making it a camping/safari SUV mainly for the Burning Man event once a year. Besides the basic mechanical preventive repairs listed about, I was considering having it wrapped or repainted (whichever cheaper), Safari Tent Roof Rack installed and possibly replacing the custom wheels back to stock. 

PLEASE CHECK OUT the below link and website for other ideas you may have. Please note all parts Lexus LX450/Toyota Series 80

www.EXTREMELANDCRUISER.com 

Clean Title in hand and will accompany you to the NV DMV if needed. If you tell me this SUV has too many miles or too expensive asking price, you're looking for the wrong car all together. This is a 1996 Lexus model of the Toyota Landruiser, please research and do not quote Kelly Blue Book prices. This is by far the cheapest and best starting condition Series 80 you will find here in Las Vegas or anywhere in the US. I'm selling this one the same price I recently seen a 1995 Toyota Series 80  for while missing its transmission.
The price is fair but I'm open to a quick sale depending on offers or bids-  

Feel free emailing me with any further questions or if interested in looking at in person, Las Vegas

Fast sale needed hence the lowest and fairest price on the market (Sorry to the others selling their LX450/Landcrusier)

Contact: with any questions.......

I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION AT ANY TIME, UNLESS "BUY NOW" OPTION USED.

2018 Lexus LS has a livelier look and new twin-turbo V6

Mon, Jan 9 2017

When considering that the Lexus LC 500 made it to production virtually unchanged from concept form, it was reasonable to think that the LS would similarly follow suit. Especially when the LS shares the LC's GA-L platform. Unfortunately, it didn't pan out that way. It is possible to spot cues inspired by the LF-FC concept, such as the lower contour of the windows, the crease in the metal leading up to the rear wheel, and of course the lights and spindle grille. But they're overshadowed by the fact that this LS has a significant amount more girth. View 14 Photos Just because it doesn't live up to the concept doesn't mean it's a bad looking car. It's far more interesting to look at than the dated, upright LS currently on dealer lots. It also sits quite low and the wheels and tires fill the wells nicely, which gives it a road-hugging stance. There are some nifty design details, too, such as the glass that is completely flush with the pillars. View 28 Photos As already mentioned, the new body is wrapped around a stretched version of the LC's platform, and it also uses its 10-speed automatic. Surprisingly, though, the LS doesn't use the LC's powertrain. Under the hood is a completely new twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 that pumps out 415 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque. That puts it down on power, but ahead in torque compared with the LC's V8. It's also significantly more than the previous LS' V8, and Lexus predicts it will be capable of a 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds with rear-wheel drive. A Lexus PR representative also said the LS is only being released with the V6. We doubt it would be hard to drop one in later though if Lexus saw demand. Inside, the LS is more interesting than the outside would suggest. The dash is clearly inspired by the LC 500, utilizing a similar gauge pod with traction control and drive mode selectors protruding from each side. The dash is also dominated by a wide, dark section that houses the 12.3-inch infotainment display. Just below that, is an attractive strip of slats that follow the contours of the dash and house the air vents. Back seat passengers also will have a pleasant environment thanks to the fact that the LS will only be available in a long wheelbase form, so leg room will never be in short supply. They also will have access to available reclining seats, ottoman, and Shiatsu massage functionality. According to a spokesman, the Japanese-style of massage function is a first for the LS.

Lexus regrets not doing 3-row CUV before RC coupe [UPDATE]

Tue, May 12 2015

UPDATE: The source clarifies that rather than planning new small cars and crossovers, Lexus intends to rely on the ones it already has in its lineup. The text below has been revised accordingly. Automakers try to give its dealers (and by extension, their customers) the vehicles they're asking for. In Lexus' case, that's come down to a sport coupe and a three-row crossover. The Japanese luxury automaker ended up prioritizing the former with the launch of the RC coupe, but in retrospect, it feels it should have gone with the seven-seater instead. This according to Toyota's North American chief Jim Lentz in speaking to Automotive News at its provisional headquarters in Plano, TX. "In hindsight, if I was making this decision 10 years ago, seeing what I see today, the three-row [crossover] probably would have been the better play to come out first," Lentz to AN. "Strategically that's a more important vehicle to have than necessarily a lower volume, higher priced image product." Crossovers and SUVs represent big business for Lexus, whose five-seat RX (pictured above) is its biggest seller. The more compact NX is off to a solid start as well, but the brand's only three-row offerings are truck-based sport-utes like the GX and LX. Even without the three-row crossover, however, Lexus has been performing admirably. Rising sales have it trailing only BMW and Mercedes in the US market for luxury automobiles. Adding a three-row crossover to target the likes of the Audi Q7 and Mercedes GL will evidently be the next top priority for Lexus, but it's not the only plan the luxury brand has for the near future. Lentz indicated that the company plans to rely on its lineup of near-luxury and entry-level luxury sedans and crossovers moving forward, but isn't interested in going after the Mercedes CLA and Audi A3. "Luxury cars cost a certain dollar amount for a reason," said Lentz. "I don't want to cheapen my cars just to offer a lease that's $20 a month less."

Stand out in the parking lot | 2017 Lexus NX 200t F-Sport Quick Spin

Wed, May 31 2017

Timing is a funny thing. As I'm writing this mini-review of the Lexus NX 200t, which has been out for several years and used the brand's first turbocharged engine in America, a newly-revised NX just debuted in China. It doesn't have much bearing on my thoughts about the CUV, but it does go to show the growing importance of China for luxury manufacturers like Lexus and Mercedes-Benz. It's been almost three years since we drove the NX 200t for the first time. Back then, our reviewer was impressed by how different it felt from the RAV4 – the two vehicles share a platform, although Lexus claims 90 percent of the NX is distinct from its Toyota cousin. The biggest differences are styling and, more important, the powertrain. With turbocharging going very mainstream in the intervening years, how does the NX200t hold up? I spent a week in an F-Sport trim in a striking orange color to find out for myself. It took a little while for me to warm up to the powertrain. Even in Sport mode, things seem ... well, they seem a little sluggish. The NX has a funny way of expressing its slightly more than adequate horsepower and torque by requiring a hefty punt to spool up the turbo and get things moving along. Normal drive mode could pass for an economy setting. Back in 2014 when this thing was new, it was clear that the RAV4 connection doesn't matter as much as we, as enthusiasts, would think. It's easy for us to fixate on what vehicle is related to what platform, and which way its engine sits. And that's good! We need to do that. But Lexus determined that they didn't need it to sit on a rear-drive sportscar platform because of course not! It's a little crossover. From a packaging standpoint, that'd be idiotic, and from a marketing standpoint likewise. Not to say that buyers of the NX 200t aren't discerning. But I think their priorities and desires probably align with what Lexus decided to produce. This is good and proper. Also, it beats the heck out of a RAV4. I love the seats. Every body is different, sure. But these seats are completely spot on for what my body needs. They're sporty-looking without resorting to immense bolsters that pinch the torso, and they're very supportive. I wouldn't say they're the best seat's I've tried out of the hundreds of cars I've driven over the years, but they're probably the best small crossover seats I can recall. To put it in different terms, on some long road trips you need to stop just to stretch – that's not the case here.
