About the seller I make a living by providing accurate descriptions of the vehicles I list for family, friends and estates. I am not a dealer but I do have have clear title to the vehicle and the authority from the owner to complete the transaction. I will gladly provide any additional details you may require to make an informed bidding decision. 3rd party inspections are welcome. Note that I include pictures of the underside of the car--where much the money gets spent on used cars--information that most sellers apparently would rather not share with you. I'll tell you everything I can find out about the vehicle--how it's been used, stored and serviced. I am a mechanical engineer with 40 yrs experience in the vehicle industry. I’ve raced, toured, modified, repaired and restored motorcycles and cars since college days. I take full responsibility for my descriptions and enjoy a good reputation by making sure there are no surprises at delivery. My auction vehicles have gone to Europe, Mexico, half the lower 48 states and we added Azerbaijan this year. Never any junk fees, no free TV’s, and no suspenseful consultations with “the sales manager” (that’s me)! Fly into Cleveland (CLE) or Akron Canton (CAK) and I’ll pick you up in your new airport limo! About the 2002 Lexus ES300 Note that 2002 was a model upgrade year for the ES300--it got a little bit roomier, quieter and smoother than its predecessors. This very clean example is owned by a lawyer friend who put most of the miles on it going back and forth from Cleveland to Columbus. It's been well serviced at a good local shop (I've requested detailed service records which I'll make available) Everything works as new including AC, lights, gages, electrical equipment; Engine starts, idles and runs great, transmission shifts smoothly. You can see from the underside photos that the exhaust has been taken care of. The car is current on Ohio e-check and has no check engine light or service warnings. The interior is remarkable--everything tidy, the pop-out cup holders stow and pop out as when new, factory stereo includes CD and cassette (remember those)? Cloth seats--clean and firm with only the driver's side giving any indication this car has done over 200k miles. The Scoop -same owner for last 9 yrs -clean, fresh non-smoking interior -well serviced, always garaged -very solid car with no major dings, hood has been painted, a few nicks and scratches on bumpers -starts, runs, shifts smoothly -everything working as expected -un-dinged windshield, tidy carpet seats -driver's factory floor mat is missing, other 3 are there and in decent shape -no check engine light or 'service soon' warnings -typical cushy Lexus ride -full brake pedal with smooth, progressive, quiet stopping from highway speeds -new, never mounted full size spare with new tire in trunk -will need new tires soon Condition details -A few small dings, scratches and wear consistent with age of vehicle -Underside is remarkably solid--no holes in pan, frame, rockers, etc (see pics) just surface corrosion consistent with life in Ohio -Muffler is solid and exhaust quiet No-reserve auction No 'asking price' No buy-it-now price No 'what will you take?' price Goes to the last bid Opening bid is about half of Edmunds.com trade in value Scammers? Don’t even think about it! I do not do bundled shipping. I don’t care if you are in the merchant marine or your late dad was the president of Sri Lanka--if you don’t have a PayPal account we aren’t doing business, period. And furthermore, please practice your English on more gullible sellers. The boiler rooms you guys call from are so noisy these days I can hear your buddies in the background asking the same stupid scammer questions: “So why are you selling your... ‘item’…” The last scammer who tried to snag my e-mail is probably still trying to figure out how he got 250,000 messages about aluminum siding and free ginzu knives back in his mail. (It helps having a friend with a pHd in computer security). Bidders' Qualifications: Feedback less than 10? You must me an e-mail with your phone number so we can discuss my terms and conditions. I welcome legitimate international bidders and have sent vehicles to Europe and the middle east but please contact me before bidding to discuss your shipping plans. |

Lexus LF-LC Concept goes blue, remains happy
Thu, 29 Nov 2012Until the day when we can see a production version of the Lexus LF-LC Concept, we'll just make do with seeing the sleek two-door in different colors for now. After first showing us the car in a Candy Apple Red color at the Detroit Auto Show, Lexus has brought its LF-LC Blue (in a deep ocean blue) from Down Under to LA.
Aside from the new color, there's nothing new for us to see here. That means we were still ogling over its flowing body lines, impressed by its 500-horsepower hybrid drive system and looking forward to possibly seeing the car go into production.

Satisfaction with dealer service rises, Lexus and GMC are tops
Thu, 14 Mar 2013During the economic downturn, many car dealerships counteracted their slowing income by focusing on things that would set them apart from competition - things like the quality of customer service they provide. When the economy picked up and more sales and service followed, many also first invested those funds back into the business, improving their dealership facilities and service centers.
It looks like those investments are paying off, as J.D. Power and Associates' latest Customer Service Index Study shows that overall consumer satisfaction with dealer service has increased to 797 (on a 1,000-point scale), up from 787 in 2012 and 29 points higher than the score in 2011. The study also finds that people are more satisfied with the service they get at dealerships compared to independent service providers, despite the much higher average out-of-pocket cost per visit ($118 vs. $44).
Note, however, that this study only looks at how people are treated by a dealer's service department during the first three years of ownership (the survey is based on responses from 91,000 owners and lessees of 2008 to 2012 model year vehicles), so we're talking about the experience had when bringing a car in for repair or maintenance work, most likely under warranty. In fact, maintenance work is increasing in share and accounted for 77 percent of service visits (up from 72 percent in 2012 and 63 percent in 2011). This helps explain why customer satisfaction has also risen, since a properly maintained car is one that's less likely to require a dealer visit for an unexpected repair.
