1997 Lexus Sc300 Arizona Car New Car Trade on 2040-cars
Beaver, Pennsylvania, United States
First off our company Del-Hon Autosales has been in business for over 30 years at the same location about 30 miles north west of Pittsburgh. You can contact us Monday through Friday from 8am-5pm and on Saturday from 9am-3pm @724-728-8883 ask for Vince or Leyton.
We acquired this car off of a new car dealer who received it on trade. It was Registered in PA on March 8th, 2012 otherwise it has spent its entire life in Arizona. If it was not winter here in Pittsburgh this car would most likely have been sold already. We have set a reserve just under $5000. This car deserves to be garage kept. Our 1997 SC300 came out of Arizona and stayed there for the majority of its life. Typically you would never find a car of this age around here which has not been affected by the salt & chemicals on the road. The motor and transmission are extremely reliable as it is known as the LEGENDARY 2JZ which came in the Toyota Supras from 1993-98. There is a switch near the shifter which allows you to change the cars performance between economy and power mode. The transmission shifts smoothly on econ mode and raises the rpms on shifts during the power setting to allow for better performance. This is the luxury big brother of the Supra minus the turbo. If your a car guy this motor could be turbocharged quite easily. The timing belt has been replaced by a Lexus dealership previously @89,317 and the date of that was 1/30/2007. I would not hesitate to drive our SC300 across the country tomorrow if needed. The interior is in really great shape. The carpets are clean and the power leather seats are rip free. The power mirrors, windows, locks, tilt wheel, sunroof, and seats all work as they should. We have never seen a car like this which has such highly reinforced door hinges. You can tell this car was built with great quality and pride. As I previously stated in the vehicle condition description there is a small crack in the vinyl above the armrest on the drivers door. If you are looking for style this car has plenty of that. The paint and body are in great shape. It really sparkles in the sun shine. The chrome factory Lexus wheels really makes this ride stand out. The tires are atleast 70% if not better. No rust whatsoever and no raised spots where rust may eventually appear. Its a southern car!!! Read the vehicle description for the minor dings and small scratch which keeps the body from having a 10/10 rating. I would rate it at a 9 or better out of 10. All of the logos are on the car and there are no flaws with any of them. We are showing under body pictures car to show the quality of this SC300. This is truly a rare car for its age and condition. Feel free to ask any questions and to give us a call. If you want to come look at it before the auction ends you are more than welcome. We have in house notary service and have the title on hand. Buyer is responsible to set up shipping but if needed we can refer someone. We greatly appreciate your interest. Let the bidding begin! |

Lexus' Detroit reveal is RC F, will have 460-hp V8
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Yesterday, we brought you the image above, sent out by Lexus, teasing its Detroit Auto Show reveal. At the time, all we knew about the car was that it's a coupe, and falls into the automaker's F performance line. But now, some more details have leaked.
An anonymous tipster passed us a link to this website, which Lexus is using to invite folks to an event at the Detroit show where the new RC F coupe will be revealed. But that same tipster also sent us a scan of the mailed-out invitation, shown at right (click the image to enlarge), which clearly states that the RC F will be powered by a 460-horsepower V8. The invite also says Lexus will show its 2015 RC 350 coupe in Detroit, following its debut at the Tokyo Motor Show in November.
We cannot totally verify the authenticity of the scanned invitation, but with a corresponding website live on the web, it all looks pretty legit to us. Stay tuned for more details closer to the RC F's debut in January.
Toyota investing $200M in Southern manufacturing
Sun, 23 Jun 2013Over the past two years, Toyota has invested more than $2 billion at its North American production facilities, and it apparently doesn't plan on stopping there. To keep up with recent strong sales, Toyota is investing an additional $200 million at its engine plants in the Southern US to increase production capacity of its V6 engines.
The bulk of this money ($150 million) will go to expand Toyota's engine plant in Huntsville, AL, which is currently responsible for supplying engines - four-cylinder, V6 and V8 - to eight of Toyota's 12 domestically produced vehicles. That includes the best-selling Toyota Camry (shown above).
Toyota didn't say exactly what improvements are being made to the plant, but this follows last year's $80 million investment in the plant that is set to be completed by next year raising the engine capacity to 750,000 annual units including 362,000 V6s. The remaining $50 million will go to the casting plants of Toyota-owned Bodine Aluminum in Missouri and Tennessee, which supply engine blocks and cylinder heads to the Huntsville engine plant as well as others in Kentucky and West Virginia.

2014 Lexus GX 460
Fri, 20 Dec 2013The Toyota 4Runner has always held a special place in my heart for its boxy styling and off-road prowess, but until now, I never had the chance to drive its more luxurious cousin, the Lexus GX 460. Granted, the GX actually has more in common with the foreign-market Land Cruiser Prado, but all three SUVs ride on the same body-on-frame platform.
Originally an answer to the luxury SUV craze from the early 2000s, the GX hasn't changed all that much since its introduction more than a decade ago. It's a big SUV with plenty of space and crammed with just about all the luxuriousness Lexus could fit into a 12-year-old vehicle, but, more importantly, it still has the chops to go places many vehicles in its segment wouldn't dare venture. And just for good measure, Lexus tacked on its new signature spindle grille in what has to be its most pronounced appearance yet.
I've had a chance to drive most of the latest Lexus products (including the IS, ES and GS) to see just how competitive Toyota's luxury arm has gotten in recent years, but after spending a week with the 2014 GX 460, it's refreshing that, for now, Lexus has resisted the urge to follow some of its rivals in replacing rugged, body-on-frame SUVs with softer, car-based crossovers.
