1997 Lexus Sc300 W/ Turbo Kit on 2040-cars
Osseo, Minnesota, United States
I am selling my 1997 Lexus SC300. The reason I'm selling it is because I need a year-round car that can handle these Minnesota winters. This car has been good to me. There have been no problems since I've had the car in my possession. I've only driven it in the spring and summer seasons and have always kept up with routine maintenance. Other than the cruise control cable needing to be hooked back up, everything on this car works. My brother-in-law removed it when test fitting the turbo.
Quick rundown of the car- 1997 Lexus SC300 It has a black exterior with black leather interior, stored from late fall to mid-spring by myself and the previous owner so it has no rust. It has it's dings here and there on the body, but very minor for a 17 year old car. Front bumper has rock and paint chips which you can see in the pictures. It was originally an automatic, but was swapped to a 5-speed manual. The transmission is a W58 with an aftermarket 6-puck clutch. Some mods that it has- 18x10 Rota Grid rims/Megan coilovers/LS400 Big Brake Kit with cross drilled and slotted rotors/HIC rear window visor Blitz Nur axle back exhaust/Full sound system with Pioneer touch screen/two 10" Kicker Comp series subs/Vibe amp HID fog 3k /lowbeams 8k (fogs could use new ballasts) I'm also throwing in an almost complete turbo kit. You can see in the pictures that it comes with a lot of parts like the turbo, exhaust manifold with external wastegate and dump tube, big intercooler and 3 inch piping, downpipe, BOV, AEM wideband gauge, Autometer Boost and Oil gauges, 3 gauge pillar pod, oil tap, and a box with hoses, gaskets, and other misc parts. The only big thing that it's missing is fuel management and small misc items like a couple of gaskets and hoses Contact me with any questions you may have. I also have the car for sale in locally and RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CANCEL THIS AUCTION AT ANY TIME*** The car is ***SOLD AS IS*** and has NO WARRANTIES what so ever ***SHIPPING IS 100% ON THE BUYER to arrange**** I will want a $500.00 DEPOSIT WITHIN 48 HOURS OF PURCHASE On Jun-11-14 at 06:26:03 PDT, seller added the following information: ***LOWERED RESERVE*** |

Here We Go Again: Lexus attacks EVs in new ad [UPDATE]
Wed, Sep 10 2014UPDATE: We got a comment from founding member of Plug In America Paul Scott on this ad. It's available below. The last time Lexus attacked plug-in battery vehicles in an ad, it had to apologize. The company is remaining on message, though, and has revisited a hybrid-vehicle advertising campaign that implies that driving a battery-electric vehicle is a big waste of time, because of all the charging you need to do. With the new spot, Lexus once again raised hackles of plug-in vehicle advocates because, once again, the accuracy is questioned. "The ad's message was that a consumer could [drive] a vehicle with advanced technology today, without sacrifice or change in habit." – Lexus spokesman Brian Bolain Lexus is running print ads (click to enlarge) in publications like Wired poking fun at EVs, the International Business Times says. Lexus highlights range anxiety in the spot, comparing the amount of time it takes to fully recharge an EV – and the idea that air conditioning and using the radio can shorten an EV's range – to the fun of just driving a Lexus. "The [print] ad was merely intended to paint a picture of life with a hybrid, which is basically no different from life with a traditional gas-powered vehicle, versus life with an EV, which can have challenges or at least uncertainties," Lexus spokesman Brian Bolain told AutoblogGreen. "In other words, at its core, the ad's message was that a consumer could participate in driving a vehicle with advanced technology today, without sacrifice or change in habit." The campaign picks up where Lexus's previous anti-EV campaign left off this spring. A website promoting Lexus's hybrids (and parent company Toyota's H2 vehicles) claimed that there was a hydrogen refueling infrastructure set up in 20 US states (not anywhere close to true). Plug-in advocates were also quick to note that higher-powered EV recharging systems can allow a plug-in to be recharged in far less than the four hours the Lexus site claimed. Of course, Toyota has a lot more skin in the game when it comes to hybrids and, starting next year, hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles than it does for plug-ins. Through August, the company sold just 842 RAV4 EVs and about 11,500 Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrids in the US. That compares to almost 19,000 Nissan Leaf EVs and a Tesla Model S count that's likely close to that figure as well (Tesla breaks out neither monthly sales numbers nor US-only sales for the Model S).

Lexus RC F resurfaces with Carbon Package
Wed, 22 Jan 2014Take one look at the new Lexus RC F and it'll be fairly obvious that Toyota's luxury division went to considerable lengths to make the new muscle coupe look the part. Still, there will always be those looking for that extra measure of visual aggression. And for them, Lexus is reportedly offering this carbon-fiber package.
The kit apparently includes a new hood (complete with central air vent), roof and active rear spoiler, all made of carbon fiber. The parts in question are particularly evident when installed on the white example of the RC F pictured here, giving it an even racier look than the stock model.
We've yet to receive official details from Lexus on the availability of the Carbon Package, so we don't know how much it will cost - or for that matter, if the components have been recrafted from actual carbon fiber or whether the woven bits simply overlay the existing panels as is often the case with aftermarket parts. But while we wait for official word, you can check out the images that have been circulating the internet in the gallery above.
