Up for auction is an AWD 2005 Lexus RX330 with slight damage to the passenger side front fender.   This is the Thunderclould edition of the RX which is a rare and desireable edition.   The Thunderclould has a different front grill, rims and the interior wood is a dark grain as opposed to the brown grain on the regular models.   My wife bought this vehicle new so it is a 1 owner vehicle.   Title is clear and in hand.   Runs and drives great but it is a 2005 model year vehicle with 142k miles on it.   So it is going to have some wear.   I like being completely honest in my listings so I am going to list some of the "flaws"  and positives this lexus has.

  • As noted above there is damage to the passenger side front fender.   This was a hit and run parking lot accident that happened while my wife was a work.   Does not effect the driveability of the car at all.   It does limit the front passenger door opening to about 3/4 of what it should open.   You can force it open all the way but it binds quite a bit.   The leading edge of the door has some paint chipped off from opening the door all the way.
  • The front passenger door has a quarter size door ding in it.   I have included a picture of this.
  • The tires are in great shape but the wheels could use to be refinished.   Some of them have bubbling in the paint on them.   Not sure why this happened?
  • Driver side rear marker light is cracked and not working.   I bought a replacement but mistakenly bought the one for the passenger side!   I will include it with the vehicle sale.
  • Interior is in great shape but does have a couple of stains in the carpet.   All new lexus floor mats have been installed.
  • Front bumper and leading edge of the hood have rock chips / slight sandblasting from the exclusive highway usage.
  • Oil has been changed every 7k miles with Mobile One synthetic oil.
  • Battery was replaced last year.
  • HID front headlights that turn as you go around curves.
  • 6 disc CD changer
  • Sunroof
  • Power rear lift gate
  • Newer Goodyear Assurance tires
  • All electronics work as they should and the air blows ice cold.

This has been a well used and well taken care of vehicle by us.   My wife recently bought a new Jeep Grand Cherokee.   We had been keeping it as a 3rd vehicle but we just don't use it enough to justify keeping it anymore.   I will be happy to answer any questions about the vehicle and its condition.   $750 deposit due at acution end and the balance within 7 days.   Buyer is responible for vehicle pick up and or shipping.   Vehicle is located in Morgantown, WV.   Thanks for viewing my auction and have a great day.

2015 Lexus NX 300h

Mon, 14 Jul 2014

With so much hullabaloo being made over the first gasoline turbocharged engine produced by Lexus, it's easy to forget that there's another option for those who'd rather (barely) hear the whirring of electric motors than the high-pitched whizzing of turbos. That's too bad, because we think the NX 300h is one of the more interesting hybrids on the market, due in large part to its innovative all-wheel-drive system and relatively sporty driving dynamics. We spent several hours with the brand-new hybrid crossover from Lexus, and we came away with plenty to talk about.
Driving Notes
Of course, the big thing that differentiates the 300h from the 200t is its drivetrain. In place of the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder sits a 2.5-liter gasoline engine that runs exclusively on the Atkinson cycle to save fuel, augmented by a pair of electric motors and mated to an electronic continuously variable transmission. Lexus is no stranger to hybrids, buoyed by parent company Toyota's expertise, and the basic setup used by the NX 300h is a well-known quantity shared with the ES 300h.

TMG Lexus LS Sports 650 destined for production after 2015?

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

There's little question that Lexus has succeeded in challenging its German rivals in the luxury marketplace. And with the LFA, it has proven that Japan can build a world-class supercar. What's left blank is the space in between.
Toyota Motorsport GmbH came up with a compelling answer in the form of the Sports 650 prototype, a Lexus LS with a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 producing 641 horsepower and other go-fast components to challenge the likes of the Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG and Audi S8. Toyota boss Akio Toyoda was reportedly so impressed with the project that he initially ordered TMG to build ten examples - one for him and each of his nine best friends. But since the model on which the project was based has since been replaced, questions remain over the project's fate.
Georg Kacher - European correspondent for Automobile and Car magazines - recently drove the prototype and reports that "the project will now likely be transferred to the new model out in 2015." That could come down purely to speculation, but Kacher tends to get the inside line on industry news, so this particular bowl of gossip soup might not requite the usual grain of salt we otherwise might add.

Wed, Sep 9 2015

Customers have spoken and automobile satisfaction is down in 2015. Autoblog's Chris McGraw reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Customers have spoken and automobile satisfaction is down in 2015. I'm Chris McGraw and this is your Autoblog Minute. The American Customer Satisfaction Index or ACSI released its updated numbers and according to the survey, new car buyer satisfaction is down for the third straight year. According to an ACSI press release, customer satisfaction with new automobiles has fallen 3.7 percent, to 79 on its 100-point scale. The ACSI report is based on over 4,100 customer surveys collected in the second quarter of 2015 Sitting at the top of the industry in customer satisfaction is Toyota's Lexus brand with a score of 84. Which was good enough to dethrone Mercedes-Benz, which fell 3% to a score of 83. Of the Big Three, Ford was the only domestic automaker to maintain overall customer satisfaction with its score of 81. General Motors slipped 3% to 79 and Fiat Chrysler had a 5% drop, registering a score of 75 out the possible 100. What's driving this trend of customer dissatisfaction? ASCI points to the rise in recalls and car prices. Where do you land on customer satisfaction spectrum? Sound off in the comments with your thoughts on the current state of car ownership and brand quality. For Autoblog, I'm Chris McGraw.
