I have for sale my 2002 Lexus SC 430 hardtop convertible, which has almost 93k miles. This has been my weekend driver for over a year now, and I am looking to upgrade to something else. The car has not caused me any problems at all, and I have enjoyed it very much. This is the perfect weekend car, and it has some upgrades that make it stand out from the average SC 430. First, the factory wheels/tires have been replaced with 18” MOMO Italy wheels and Pirelli P6 Four seasons, which are designed for high performance/luxury vehicles. The wheels are very tasteful and give the car a great look. However, since the factory wheels have been changed the tire pressure monitoring system is no longer in place. This means this light on the dash stays on all the time. Next, the car has been tastefully lowered on NF210 coil performance springs which produce great overall ride quality/comfort. This coil is pretty popular with luxury vehicles where comfort is important. With that being said- keep in mind that it has been lowered and while the ride quality and comfort are good, it is different than that of a stock SC 430. The brakes have cross drilled and slotted roters which have more grip and perform better than the stock rotor to help with faster braking time. The exterior paint is Millennium Silver. The paint is in good condition however there are a few random scratches here and there. I have pictured a gouged place on the front bumper- this is definitely the worst blemish on the car. There is also a very small dent on the hood, and one dent on the back bumper that I just noticed when I was checking the car over to write this add. Neither are very noticeable. The windows have also been tinted fairly dark. The front seats come standard with saddle colored leather from the factory, are dual heated and also 8 way power adjustable. The leather does not have any rips or tears, and there is only a small bit of wear showing on the driver’s seat. The back seats look as good as new. The car has the Mark Levinson brand premium stereo system, as well as a 6 disc CD player and they both work as they should. It is also equipped with a navigation system which is currently not working. I have pictured the error message on the display. This never bothered me- I don’t need a computer to tell me where I should be going. This car has a 4.3 liter V8 engine which puts out about 300 Hp. It is rear wheel drive with a 5 speed automatic transmission. It shifts out good and smooth, there are no mechanical issues with it at all. Magnaflow exhaust tips have been added to the factory exhaust system. I took it by the local Lexus dealership where I have it serviced just last week and had them check it thoroughly inside and out. I have priced the car reasonably and I have a clean title and perfect auto-check in hand. You may text me with any questions during the day while I am at work, and I will be more than happy to take calls from 5-9 PM. 423-413-4317 Lisa |

2013 Lexus ES earns five stars from NHTSA
Wed, 05 Dec 2012The 2013 Lexus ES has earned a five-star crash rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The 2013 ES 350 and ES 300h hybrid earned the highest ratings in each of the government's crash evaluations, including overall driver safety, frontal crashes and overall side impacts, save one. The sedan only achieved a four-star rating in the NHTSA rollover protection test, but that fault wasn't enough to keep the vehicle from earning a five-star designation overall.
The announcement doesn't mention the recent Consumer Reports claim that the ES comes with a faulty emergency trunk release that can be easily broken in a panic situation.
As you may recall, the 2013 ES 350 carries an MSRP of $36,100, plus an $895 destination fee and offers buyers a 268-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 good for 248 pound-feet of torque, as well. The ES 300h, meanwhile, stickers at $38,850 plus the same destination charge.
Toyota settles first wrongful death suit related to unintended acceleration
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Toyota's sales seem to have rebounded from the unintended acceleration issues from 2009 and 2010, but the automaker is far from done dealing with this situation. Following a settlement worth up to $1.4 billion for economic loss to affected vehicle owners, Toyota has settled rather than going to trial in a wrongful death lawsuit stemming from an accident in Utah in 2010 that left two passengers dead. This isn't the first case in which Toyota has settled, but it was the first among a consolidated group of cases being held in Santa Ana, CA.
According to The Detroit News, this case was scheduled to take place next month, and it was for a November 2010 incident in which Paul Van Alfen and Charlene James Lloyd were killed in a Camry when, based on findings by the Utah Highway Patrol, the accelerator got stuck causing the car to speed out of control and hit a wall; the terms of the settlement were not announced.
The article says that while Toyota will settle on some cases, it doesn't plan on settling on all of them as it still wants to be able to "defend [its] product at trial." This will probably be the case in suits claiming that software for the drive-by-wire accelerator was the cause of an accident in a Toyota or Lexus vehicle. The question of whether or not the electronic accelerator played any role in this problem has been a hot-button topic since the beginning. Toyota has issued recalls in the past to attempt to prevent unintended acceleration caused by trapped floor mats and faulty accelerator pedals, but it also says driver error was to blame in some instances.
Toyota may return to F1 under Lexus banner
Wed, 03 Apr 2013A new report in from the website Club Lexus claims to have insider knowledge about a return to Formula One racing by Toyota, this time under the auspices of the Lexus brand. Toyota competed in F1 from 2002 through the 2009 season. That final year saw the team return competitive, if inconsistent results, but the larger economic woes in the automotive market made a decision to pull the plug relatively easy at the time.
Now, citing recent interviews with Toyota executives and insider sources, Club Lexus says that the move to re-enter F1 for the 2014 season is "all but finalized." The choice to go with the Lexus nameplate over Toyota makes some sense, too, considering the success that rival Infiniti has had in recent years through its partnership with Red Bull Racing. Further, the emerging Lexus identity as a performance car builder, with a strong background in hybrid vehicles, could help the F1 move resonate with buyers.
A few technological factors and formula changes within F1 offer some credence to the Lexus rumor, too. F1 will increase the available capacity of KERS from 60kW to 120kW, a change that theoretically benefits the hybrid-savvy Toyota. What's more, 2014 will see a switch from the current 2.4-liter V8 engines to 1.6-liter turbocharged V6s. A Lexus team that goes racing in 2014 will be on a level playing field with the rest of the grid then, with all teams adjusting to and continuing to develop the new engines.
