Welcome to a great opportunity. Have you ever heard of that 1-owner, very low mileage, Florida-kept automobile that was owned and driven by a little old lady, probably only to and from church on Sunday? Well, we're not sure about the religious nature of her trips, but this is that car!

Simply put, this 2003 Lexus ES300 runs and drives like new. It was purchased at County Line Lexus of Hollywood, Florida and was serviced by the professionals at the Lexus dealership. No squeaks, rattles, noises, or smells, just an ultra-luxurious and ultra-smooth ride that only a Lexus can provide. There is a reason that Lexus is considered by many automotive experts as the best riding luxury brand of any of the premium automobile makers in the world. And with only 67,000 original, sunny South Florida miles, this ES300 is just getting broken in. It is not uncommon to see this extremely durable engine and transmission combination reach 200,000 miles + of trouble-free performance. It has recently had its 60,000 mile service performed and has a fresh oil change, new air filter and wipers, and interior cabin filters as well as cooling system service and flush. The air conditioning is ice cold, and for those of you in non-tropical climates, the heater works great. It even has heated seats, with multiple settings!

The rich, elegant leather and wood trimmed interior is like new. The dark cherry accents really showcase the light beige leather very nicely, and the rear seats do not even appear to have ever been used. It is clean and fresh. This vehicle was never smoked in and neither the ashtray, nor the cigarette lighter have ever been used. This one-owner Lexus was owned by a senior, and while she did her best to have it regularly serviced and cleaned, sometimes the older folks here in Florida bump into a few things.

We are selling this low mileage Lexus in exactly the condition that we took it in. All we had our detailer do is clean it. It runs and drives phenomenal, and the interior is extra-clean. The exterior presents a wonderful and brilliant finish, but if you look closely, you will find some imperfections. This may not bother most of you, but we do our best to accurately describe our vehicles honestly and accurately. It appears this automobile was completely and professionally repainted a couple years ago. While being a Florida vehicle has HUGE benefits--(i.e. no harsh weather, no harsh roads, no hills or potholes and certainly no snow or salt), sometimes the summer sun can fade paint. So, it is not uncommon for vehicles to be re-painted. We see it a lot. On this Lexus you can literally eat off of the undercarriage as well as the engine compartment. Both are as close to new as you can find. You will not see that on a northern, or Midwest vehicle. And then once the corrosion sets in on a vehicle from other parts of the country, things will begin to rust. Things that you can see, and unfortunately, things that you cannot see. Not the case here. This car is as clean as a whistle!

So the finish is brilliant and the color is outstanding. Lexus calls it Black Garnet Pearl. It is a factory 3-stage paint process that goes into this color, making it a premium color and a $995 option from Lexus when ordered new. It looks great, and during the day, the sunlight really makes this color dance. At night it looks black. Black Cherry is the more common term we use for this color. The front bumper on the right hand side, well under the headlamp has a slight scuff. It appears she may have rubbed the wall of her garage while entering or exiting. Again, might not be a big deal to most for a 10 year old vehicle, but we are telling you about it. If interested after the sale, our cost to have it professionally repainted to like new standards is $150. There are a few nicks and scratches that you would consider consistent for a 10 year old vehicle, but you have to get up close to the car. Of course, no dents, dings or unsightly parking lot mishaps. The factory aluminum alloy wheels have a complete set of premium Yokohama Avid Endevor all-season performance radials all the way around. They are Brand new and appear to have less than 200 miles on them. Cost of these top-of-the-line Yokohama's was around $800, and they are Nitrogen filled. The rims look like new as well, with no curb rash or chips that you sometimes see. There was no skimping of the service on this Lexus at all by the previous gal!

This Lexus is fully loaded. It has complete power options as well as dual power front seats, heated seats, factory power glass moonroof, express touch windows, Premium Audio System with 6-disc CD changer and 8 surround sound speakers, factory security system, solar ray factory tinted glass, independent electronic climate control and so much more. It even has a power rear sunshade. This was a rare option. Everything works perfectly and properly, just as you would expect from a low mileage, well-maintained automobile.

The latest October 2013 NADA Used Car Guide shows the retail value of this 2003 Lexus ES300 to be over $12,575 and certainly much more at your friendly neighborhood Lexus dealership. This is a unique color and has a one-owner and Florida-kept pedigree. Please feel free to call or e-mail me with any questions that you may have. I am including all the original books, manuals and supplements that came with this car when new, as well as a complete set of factory Lexus embroidered carpeted floor mats. This ES300 drives and runs outstanding, it gets excellent fuel economy and is very roomy. Plenty of room in the trunk for golf clubs or multiple suitcases, and the interior provides comfortable seating for 5 adults. This is a sensational car to take on a long road trip. With only 67,681 original miles, this Lexus was used sparingly. That's less than 6,500 miles per year. And again, very easy miles by an older owner, and pleasant Florida roads.

Don't make the mistake of missing out on this rare find. We are running this auction for 7 days with No Reserve. One lucky and savvy bidder will be getting a great vehicle. Please call or e-mail Steve at 561.283.9511 with any questions or if you would like to make an appointment to see the car. We offer transport assistance within the Continental US, and of course, free airport pick-up is available from Jacksonville International. Good Luck to everyone bidding on this classy, low mileage Lexus ES300. We do charge a nominal $299 dealer fee to each winning bid. Bid with confidence and Bid to win!

Toyota aims to build autonomous car around 2020 [w/videos]

Tue, Oct 6 2015

The race is on to get increasingly sophisticated forms of autonomous driving technology on the road, and brands like Tesla are bringing these solutions to some drivers now. But as one of the world's largest automakers, it's no surprise to see Toyota competing in the field, as well. By 2020, the company thinks a person could be largely unnecessary for freeway trips. With a suite of tech called the Highway Teammate, a modified Lexus GS is already showing what's possible. Using a combination of millimeter wave radar, LIDAR, and cameras, the GS gets a full view of the road, and software processes all of the info to make decisions. The result is a ride on the freeway without human interaction. The system can merge, change lanes, make passes, take curves, and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles. Accurate map data is a necessity to make this work, so the system currently only being tested on Tokyo's Shuto Expressway. While Highway Teammate might not be the best name, it accurately communicates the way Toyota thinks of the tech. The company is making big investments in artificial intelligence to assist drivers, not completely replace them. You can see the system in action in the video below, and the second clip's gravely serious narrator explains the company's idea of having a fully connected road someday.

New Toyota Test Vehicle Paves the Way for Commercialization of Automated Highway Driving Technologies Toyota City, Japan, October 6, 2015-Toyota has been testing a new automated driving test vehicle called Highway Teammate, with the aim of launching related products by around 2020. In addition to demonstrating the capabilities of next-generation safety technologies, the vehicle represents Toyota's view of the evolving driver-car relationship in the age of artificial intelligence. Toyota believes that interactions between drivers and cars should mirror those between close friends who share a common purpose, sometimes watching over each other and sometimes helping each other out. Toyota refers to this approach as the Mobility Teammate Concept, and Highway Teammate represents an important first effort to give form to this concept.

Toyota will bring Lexus-based Platform 3.0 autonomous vehicle to CES

Thu, Jan 4 2018

The Toyota Research Institute says it will bring its next-generation Platform 3.0 automated driving vehicle to CES next week, an autonomous test car that is notable for incorporating the sensors and cameras into the body, rather than as ungainly attachments, and with the spinning LIDAR rooftop sensor replaced by a more sleek panel of sensors. Platform 3.0 is built on a Lexus LS600hL. Toyota Research Institute says it enlisted CALTY Design Research in Ann Arbor, Mich. and engineers at Toyota's nearby North America R&D center to conceal the equipment. As a result, Platform 3.0 gets a new rooftop weather and temperature proof panel, which it says was inspired by off-road motorcycle helmets, integrated into the available space in the sunroof compartment to minimize height. It's also embellished with chrome trim along the side, where it meets the roofline, and the rear swoops down to integrate with the LS's contour lines. The team also managed to consolidate computational electronics and wiring into a small box in the trunk. Toyota says the Platform 3.0 is one of the most perceptive autonomous test vehicles on the road today, with a design makes the test vehicle easy to build at scale. It gets a Luminar LIDAR system boasting a 200-meter, 360-degree range (the previous version only tracked the forward direction), enabled by four high-res LIDAR scanning heads that help it better see dark objects. Shorter-range LIDAR sensors feature low on all four sides of the vehicle, one on each front quarter panel and on the front and rear bumpers, to detect low-level and smaller objects, like children or road debris. Production begins this spring at the Toyota Motor North America R&D headquarters at low volumes to allow for flexibility, given the rapid rate of development of Toyota's autonomous test platforms. Some will be assembled using Toyota's Guardian dual-cockpit control layout to allow for transferring control between a human test driver and the automated system while keeping the driver as a backup, while the single-cockpit, fully autonomous Chauffeur mode will be shown at CES starting Jan. 9.Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

2018 Lexus RX 450hL hybrid will start just over $50,000

Wed, Feb 7 2018

Lexus has announced pricing on its 2018 RX 450hL, saying that its new three-row, all-wheel-drive hybrid crossover will carry a starting MSRP just $1,550 higher than the non-hybrid AWD RX 350L when it goes on sale starting in April. The RX 450hL will start at $51,615, positioning it right in-between luxury crossover competitors like the Mercedes-Benz GLE 350 and Infiniti QX60. The Luxury package, which adds features like semi-aniline trimmed seats, interior LED ambient lighting, laser-cut wood trim and 20-inch machine-finished alloy wheels, bumps the price up to $55,550. Prices include a $995 delivery, processing and handling fee. Lexus says the 450hL will get new features like second-row captain's chairs, leather-trimmed seats and complimentary Lexus Inform Safety Connect and Service Connect membership for the first 10 years of ownership. Standard safety features include a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane-keep assistance, intelligent high beam headlights and all-speed dynamic radar cruise control. The RX 450hL combines a 3.5-liter V6 engine with two high-torque electric drive motor-generators to produce 308 in combined horsepower, with an EV mode allowing it to run on pure electric power at lower speeds for short periods. Lexus hasn't yet released fuel-economy figures for the hybrid, but the conventional RX 450h is rated at a combined 30 mpg by fueleconomy.gov. Lexus has added 4.3 inches to the rear body length of the 450hL and added more room for third-row occupants by incorporating a steeper tailgate. We've previously covered the introduction of the three-row RX 450hL and the 2018 RX 350L, which is powered by a 290-hp 3.5-liter V6 and is available in both front- and all-wheel-drive. The latter starts at $48,665 and goes up to $55,080. The RX line has been Lexus' best-selling model, with sales of 108,307 units in 2017.Related Video:
