290HP VVT-i V8 Engine. Loaded with Options...NAKAMICHI Sound System, 6 DISC CD, Cold Weather Pckg(Heated Seats, Traction Control). Exterior of the car looks very nice, as you can see in the pictures.

Car runs and drives smooth!! Starts right up, Accelerates well and shifts smoothly!! Everything inside the car works. Heat and A/C work properly. Windows, locks and Sunroof all work. Even the Remote still works. Engine is solid. Cranks right up. Whisper quiet at idle. Has Strong Acceleration, very Powerful!! Trans shifts well. I don't see any visible leaks. No Service lights on the dash. Tires are decent all the way around. Suspension still seems to be pretty tight. I don't hear any shakes or rattles. Recently had the Front Brakes replaced, so it stops fine.

 

Please expect some normal wear and tear for a car of this age. I am not a mechanic, but I will do my best to describe any issues with the vehicle that a potential buyer might notice. The paint looks very nice. Amazing shine. No fading whatsoever!! No dents. Driver's door has a few dime sized door dings. Passenger door may have one or two small dings. Scratches are minimal and have all been professionally touched up. Interior is in nice shape. Leather seats have minimal cracking. There are some minor blemishes, to be expected with a car of this age. Both door panels, have small indentations. Looks like it's from the seatbelts getting caught when the door shuts. Power antenna does not go up and down, but still holds a signal. That's about it. Overall this car is in better condition than you would expect for a 98!! I get nothing but complements on the car. It drives and performs like you would expect for a 100K Mile car. And for a Lexus...it's just getting broken in!!

Lexus' LFA Works now making carbon fiber bicycles... kind of

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

The LFA Works that produced the Lexus LFA hasn't had too much to do since the 500th example of the V10 supercar left the plant on December 15, 2012. So what are a bunch of carbon fiber experts meant to do with their time when they have some of the world's most advanced CFRP machinery but no engine to wrap it with? Why, make a bicycle, of course - and not just any bicycle, but the kind that costs one million Japanese yen ($10,000 US) and of which only 100 will be made.
Only they didn't really "make" it - the carbon fiber frame was sourced from Takumi, in Taiwan. On the face of it that's a shame, but it makes sense; when you've got a company like McLaren assisting bike manufacturer Specialized produce a road bike, it's clear that 'pushies' have got so advanced that a company can't just hop in and mold a $10K bike in six months. Beyond that frame it's got a Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 group with electronic shifters, and it weighs 15 pounds.
However, the Lexus crafstmen did polish each frame for three hours, and the bike is said to embody the "principles and philosophy" of the supercar, while the brochure for the bike says it represents "a new chapter in Lexus history." That chapter is still all about rarity, though, since there's only one bike headed for Canada and two for the US.

Lexus ends partnership with Weinstein Co. and 'Project Runway'

Tue, Oct 24 2017

Lexus has been a long-time sponsor of fashion reality competition show Project Runway, providing a car to the contest's winner and sponsoring at least one specific "challenge" per season. Only last week, a Lexus NX 200t was featured and used as inspiration for the remaining group of fashion designers. This would seem to be the last season that will happen, however, as Lexus has ended its partnership with the show's production company, Weinstein Co., after sexual harassment allegations leveled at Harvey Weinstein. "Lexus has chosen to terminate its agreement with The Weinstein Company that saw the luxury automaker working with the film studio on certain film and television projects," a company spokesperson wrote in a statement to Reuters. Last week, Lexus indicated it was "evaluating" its relationship with Weinstein Company. One would imagine this delay was the result of that week's episode featuring Lexus substantially more than usual. Related Video:

Toyota develops new pre-collision system with steering assist

Sun, 13 Oct 2013

A number of automakers are working on developing fully autonomous cars, but it looks like the groundwork for such technologies will likely show up first as semi-autonomous systems for both safety and convenience. Following recent announcements from Nissan and Ford in this area, Toyota has now released information for some of its advanced semi-autonomous technologies that could be offered in production cars over the next few years.
On the safety front, Toyota's new pre-collision system with pedestrian-avoidance steering assist is aimed at protecting the folks who aren't in the car. This system combines visual and audible alerts with automatic brake assist and automatic steering. If warnings don't get the driver to slow down, the brake assist kicks in if a collision is very likely, but if that is still not able to avoid the impending collision (and if there is enough room to do so), the car can automatically steer itself around the pedestrian. This sounds most beneficial for last-second dangers such as a person accidently stepping out into the road in front of a car. Toyota hopes to have this technology available to customers by 2015.
The Japanese automaker is also testing a suite of technologies called Automated Highway Driving Assist (AHDA). The key part of this is a new adaptive cruise control system that uses vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications rather than a radar-based system. This cooperative-adaptive cruise control allows vehicles to communicate their acceleration and deceleration data with other cars, which Toyota says this helps to improve fuel efficiency and traffic flow. Also a part of AHDA is the Lane Trace Control feature, which sounds like a next-gen lane keep assist. This system uses cameras, radar and a computer to keep the vehicle in a "smooth driving line" by being able to change steering angle, engine torque and braking force. Toyota says this technology could be in place by the "mid-2010s."
