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*** |

Lexus RC media event in Japan canceled over lack of interest
Fri, 07 Nov 2014It's a good thing senior editor Seyth Miersma doesn't live in Japan, or he wouldn't have been able to snap a photo like the one you see here, of a fresh-off-the-line Lexus RC F on hand at a first drive for media. That's because Toyota's Japanese arm has outright canceled its RC press launch. Sure, we've heard about events being delayed, but canceled? That's rare. Even worse is the reason: according to Automotive News, the event was nixed due to lack of interest. Wow.
In an email to media, Lexus said the event "has been canceled due to insufficient attendance," according to AN. The News posits that perhaps it would have just been better to hold the event anyway, in an attempt to save face, and that this is another example of the Japanese culture (especially youth) becoming less and less interested in cars. Of course, there's also the thought that local media just didn't want to drive out to Yokohama to drive the RC on a not-so-sexy press launch, which, if you ask us, is an incredibly lame excuse (do your jobs, folks!).
Either way, will this bode well for the Lexus RC's public launch? Will it receive the same lukewarm response when it arrives at Japanese dealers? We'll see.
BMW M4 vs. Lexus RC F in Head 2 Head sports coupe showdown
Wed, 29 Oct 2014It's the showdown everyone's been looking forward to, the East versus West grudge match of the year. We're talking, of course, about the BMW M4 versus the Lexus RC F.
Although BMW uses a twin-turbo straight-six and the Lexus uses a free-breathing V8, the two are pretty closely matched on paper: a luxury coupe with over 400 horsepower channeled to the rear wheels.
The BMW has been doing these cars for longer, and the M4 boasts a higher power-to-weight ratio. But then the RC F has more power - and without forced induction to break up the rev range. So which is the better luxury muscle coupe? Watch the latest episode of Motor Trend Head 2 Head to find out.
2015 Lexus LS gets tighter turning radius, new infotainment
Wed, 22 Oct 2014Go back a couple of decades and the thought of a Japanese automaker challenging the German limousines would have seemed laughable, but 25 years later the Lexus LS is a mainstay of the luxury sedan market. And it didn't get there by sitting on its laurels, so it should come as little surprise that Lexus is offering some small tweaks as it enters the 2015 model year.
This time around the upgrades are rather minor, consisting primarily of a new multimedia system. It's got an updated navigation system with 12.3-inch display, revised backup camera imagery with dynamic gridlines, and an enhanced Lexus Enform App Suite that can control the locks, ignition, climate control and more, remotely.
While they were at it, Toyota's engineers also reduced the turning circle by four inches (on cars fitted with 18-inch wheels), and enhanced the F Sport package as well. Otherwise, it's essentially the same LS we've always known.
