Known issues: 
Interior is a 9 out of 10.  A few small window trim and air vent cracks, otherwise, everything is in great condition – especially the leather. 
Exterior is a 7 out of 10.  As expected from a 200K mile car, there are probably a dozen bumps and bruises, but nothing major, or easily seen without looking closely.   
Wheels are starting to flake a bit – could use a dip, spray, or refinish. 
Dime sized windshield rock chip in the low/center by wipers.  Not noticeable when driving. 
Clutch pedal can lightly squeak at times.  Per Lexus tech, nothing to worry about (new clutch was put in at 150K miles)  Shot of WD40 clears it up. 
Small exposed holes in trunk where “Lexus” badge was located.  Easy replacement if desired. 
LED bulbs create a sporadic ‘fast blink’ turn signal.   Front clear turn lenses aren't a perfect fit but work fine. 
Driver side mirror surround edge is chipped/scratched 

Car is listed on other sites, I reserve the right to end auction early.  Based on condition, rarity, and comparable sales, I believe the price is fair.  First $6000 takes it.

Title is in hand and will be sent over-night once full payment is received. I have a perfect Ebay seller and buyer rating, so bid with confidence.

2015 Lexus RC 300h is a hardcore hybrid cherry coupe

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Lexus is tag-teaming back into the hardcore coupe ring with this, the red rum RC 300h that's jumping off the top rope to "[inject] emotional appeal into the Lexus DNA." It's the hybrid version of the twin, powered by a 2.5-liter V6 aided by a 105-kW electric motor, the pair putting out 217 total horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque through a continuously variable transmission. The RC's other, more conventional half will come with a 3.5-liter V6 with 314 hp and 380 lb-ft shifted with an eight-speed sequential transmission.
The brand doesn't want you to take this RC Coupe for a two-door version of the IS. It's based on the GS platform but its dimensions are unique, being wider, lower and shorter in wheelbase than the IS. Concept-car headlights flank the most extreme version of the spindle grille yet seen on a production car, and the lighting novelty continuing in the cabin with illumination that is aimed up instead of down. The package will ride on either 18- or 19-inch wheels.
The "high contrast," dual-zone cabin is graced with shimamoku wood and Lexus' Remote Touch Interface, and Lexus says the seats have been conceived via an "integrated foaming construction method" like racing seats - we think they look spectacular stitched up in this carmel-colored leather.

Lexus previews production NX crossover ahead of Beijing debut

Fri, 04 Apr 2014

Every luxury automaker and its sister company is getting into the compact crossover game these days. Mercedes has the GLK and even smaller GLA, Audi has the Q3, BMW the X1... even Porsche is getting in on the action with the new Macan. Lincoln has the new MKC, and it won't be long before Infiniti and Acura launch challengers of their own. But before they do, Lexus will roll out its new NX crossover.
Previewed by the LF-NX concepts first in Frankfurt and then in Tokyo, leaked in a corporate presentation and spied testing out on the open road, Lexus is slated to present the production NX at the Beijing Motor Show later this month. But to keep us on our toes, the Japanese luxury automaker has released this teaser image and brief statement.
From the looks of it, it appears that Lexus has hardly toned down for production the anime-worthy sharp creases that made the LF-NX stand out on the show floor, with the brand's signature spindle grille featuring prominently once again. Though we'd guess the finished product will be toned down somewhat. Toyota's luxury division also says "the NX will set new standards for future models in the line-up," meaning that we can expect the design theme to carry through to more models to follow.

Next-gen Lexus IS design revealed to be swoopiest yet

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

We drove it while it was covered in cloth and vinyl not long ago, but before the 2014 Lexus IS350 F-Sport gets revealed at the Detroit Auto Show and we find out everything about it, Lexus has graced us with images. In addition to the spindle grille - with an elevated waistline on the F-Sport - the coming IS gets a jagged set of dual-beam headlights with L-shaped DRLs that are, for the first time on a Lexus, separate from the main units. Further back, the side sills get a twist and intense sculpting throughout the length of the longer wheelbase.
Inside is an LFA-inspired cockpit with thinner sport seats and more room in just about every area, the moving "driver's meter" in the dash cluster, electrostatic controls for cabin temperature control, 60/40 folding rear seats and "metal film 3-D-effect ornamentation."
The F-Sport package will be available on the IS250, IS350, IS300h equipped with Lexus Hybrid Drive. The hybrid will not come to the US.
