2001 Lexus Rx300 Base Sport Utility 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars

Year:2001 Mileage:194021 Color: shows some scuffs and scratches
Location:

Cincinnati, Ohio, United States

Cincinnati, Ohio, United States

We bought the car is 2003 with 65,000 miles we understood to be mostly highway. My wife drove it until early 2011.We kept this car thinking our son who is now 17-1/2 would eventually drive it. He shows absolutely no interest in getting his license (I cannot relate!). It has been in our driveway, driven occasionally for the last three years. The battery was purchased in January, so I could drive it for a month while waiting for parts for my car. It performed really well, especially considering the brutal month that was last January and that this car sits outside.

This car has had religiously regular oil changes every 3,500 miles, has never been wrecked and has rarely been sat in, except for the driver seat, which looks as good as the rest of the interior. Everything works but the power antenna, which happens to be up, so the radio works fine. The CHECK ENGINE and VSC lights are on. It thinks the rear O2 sensor is bad. I bought a new one and it still thought it was bad. I changed it with the front sensor and it still thought it was bad. I checked the wiring and it all looks good to me. Past that, it's out of my realm.

The exterior shows some scuffs and scratches, but nothing surprising for a car of this age and mileage. If you're buying it for a kid's first car, they'll do this much to it in the first month.

Lexus files to copyright LC 500 nameplates [UPDATE]

Mon, Dec 8 2014

UPDATE: Reached for comment, Lexus told Autoblog that it "cannot offer comment on the potential naming of a production version of the LF-LC concept" and pointed out that automakers trademark nameplates as a matter of course. Some automakers already slap a production-ready name on their concepts, but not Lexus. The Japanese automaker typically labels its show cars with the letters LF-XX. So when we heard that Toyota had green-lit the LF-LC concept for production, we naturally started wondering what name the production version would carry. But if the latest intel is any indication, we can stop wondering. According to Lexus Enthusiast, the automaker has filed to trademark the names LC 500 and LC 500h in a variety of markets – including the United States, Canada and Australia. The application tells us a number of things: first of all, that the LF-LC will retain that second set of letters along the road to production (like the NX but unlike other recent Lexus concepts). And secondly, it indicates what engines we can expect to find under the hood. The 500 designation would seem to suggest that the base version of Lexus' upcoming halo sports car will pack the 5.0-liter V8 from the RC F. The bigger question mark is over the hybrid version. Current gasoline-electric models in the company's lineup include the RX 450h (based on a 3.5-liter V6) and the LS 600h (with a 5.0-liter V8). For the LC 500h, Lexus could be planning a more potent electric motor to mate to the 3.5L V6, or planning a new powertrain altogether.

Lexus hints at possible IS SportCross comeback [w/poll]

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

We're looking forward to seeing the 2014 Lexus IS in person next week at the Detroit Auto Show to see if its brazen design is any less polarizing in person, but Lexus (or at least its Facebook team) has dropped a not-too-subtle hint about the possible return of the SportCross body style - something in between a hatchback and station wagon. The current generation IS comes in sedan and convertible models, but this is an interesting teaser that might suggest an expanded IS lineup.
On its Facebook page, Lexus said:
Do you remember the '02 IS 300 Sport Cross with its style, utility and performance? Will we bring it back? Watch the 2014 IS premiere on Facebook in 6 days to find out!

Lexus boots up early NX configurator

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Lexus is ramping up to launch its NX luxury compact crossover. Its international website just launched a teaser page for the CUV that shows off the available models and some nifty new photos of the upcoming vehicle on location. The site also includes an early configurator to allow potential customers to imagine their future NX.
Unfortunately, the configurator is quite bare bones at the moment. It only allows users to choose from 4 trims, 10 colors and 3 wheel designs. You can't do anything to the interior, and there are no options. Pricing is still a mystery as well.
We do know that in the US the NX is offered with either the company's new 2.0-liter four-cylinder, turbocharged engine with a six-speed automatic or a 2.5-liter four-cylinder hybrid powertrain. The F Sport package is also available with either engine for a dash more sport in your crossover.
