It's 13 years old, but still runs great. Timing belt, water pump, spark plugs, brakes (for rear brakes, calipers too), brake light assemblies replaced recently. Features and issues below:
1) New Timing belt, Water pump and Spark plugs (December 2013)
2) O2 sensors replaced (March 2013)
3) Front brake replaced (rotors and pads), (December 2013)
4) Remote starter installed. Great in winter (cost 200 including installation)
5) New brake light assembly (right and left), New LED license plate light (blue).
6) GPS (Pioneer AVIC D3). Working, but sometimes goes wrong. Radio function has no problem.
7) Right side headlight ballast and lamp replaced recently. HID and very bright.
8) I have to sell 4 very new snow tires mounted on original wheels. About 600 dollars worth. You need them for FR cars in winter.
9) New Tires on New Wheels, purchased in April. About 700 dollars.
10) Automatic transmission slightly not smooth from 1st to 2nd and 3rd. But no noise or any other issue. Some people might complain, but if you look for a perfectly smooth transmission for used cars, you should look for a newer economy car, not this car, or you should pay more to get a newer one, I recommend,
11) Passenger Seat heater not working. 
12) automatic mode of airconditioner somewhat awkward. It's very cold and hot, but you need to switch manually. Maybe the sensor broken.
13) no major dents, but many scratches especially underparts. Left side rear bumper slightly distorted. the roof is very clean..

It's 2001 car and 155k miles, so has some issues as almost all cars as old as this one have. But I can say confidently that I did all I could do on this car. I keep all service records since I purchased it. The basic function as a car is no problem so far. I can't guarantee that it will never break down with a year or so like all other private sellers, but if you look for a better car within the same budget, why not trying to find a newer economy car such as Civics and Corollas or any other economy cars? This is a sporty sedan with much better steering and engine power. I am expecting buyers who want sporty cars within limited budget. KBB fair price is around 4000.

I prefer written communication first because I am a student from the country where this Lexus was made and people speak English terribly....But I will do my best and be sincere to my prospective buyers.

Ford barely edges surging Chrysler for Canadian sales crown in best year ever

Thu, Jan 8 2015

The auto industry in the US showed strong results through much of 2014 with sales regularly growing year-over-year for many brands. That same trend carried over in the Great White North, as well. Canada posted its best numbers ever with 1.85 million units sold, up about 100,000 vehicles over 2013. The country nearly had a new market leader, too. The big winner among our neighbors to the north in 2014 was Ford with 291,951 vehicles sold, up 3 percent from 2013, according to Reuters. That success also handed the company the sales crown for the fifth consecutive year. In large part, the strong result came from the company's popular trucks, which represented about 80 percent of overall sales. "Ford moved into the number one position in September and didn't look back," said a note to clients by DesRosiers Automotive Consultants quoted by Reuters. However, the Blue Oval didn't exactly take an overwhelming lead for the year. The company nearly had to hand over the sales trophy to FCA after the company rallied in the latter part of the year. The Italian-American conglomerate had its best results ever to nip at the Ford's heels and move 290,004 units for 2014, a 12-percent improvement from last year. Jeep especially helped the bottom line with over 50-percent growth, according to Reuters. Only two other brands were able to break the 200,000-vehicle barrier in Canada for 2014. General Motors came in third place overall with 249,800 sales, up 6.3 percent. The combined Toyota and Lexus also barely jumped the hurdle with 200,851 units moved, a 2.8 percent improvement.

Lexus really put the spindle grille on its imaginary 'Men in Black' jet

Tue, Jun 11 2019

There is a large constituency of people who do not like — hate, even — Lexus' signature spindle grille. But Lexus likes it, A LOT. So much so, that the company included the spindle design into its newest conceptual design study, the Lexus QZ 618 Galactic Enforcer Jet that will appear in "Men in Black: International." The two official trailers for the upcoming MIB reboot revealed that Lexus had a hand in the films. In the second, we even see a Lexus RC F transforming into an aircraft, a call back to Will Smith's and Tommy Lee Jones' flying car in the original. But this is the first full look at the fictional vehicle, which will be used by Tessa Thompson and Chris Hemsworth. Lexus had some fun with this and put out a press release detailing all of the Galactic Enforcer Jet's features. Lexus says it wears Umbra Black, the darkest black in the entire universe, and uses Hybrid Transformer Technology. Its Quasar Power Source2 Technology was secured through a secret alien knowledge swap and uses power from the closest Active Galactic Nucleus3 for universal travel. The propulsion system is named after Black Hole TON 618. The stats on this machine are pretty impressive. It gets 122 millennia per gallon, does zero to 60 in 0.0000000000001 nanoseconds, and has light-speed-matching capabilities. Drivers sit in intergalactically sourced and ethically spawned Adorian leather and have the choice of three drive modes: EcoDrive, SportDrive, and QuantumDrive. Further convenience and safety features include Amazon Alexa (which understands seven trillion alien languages), infinite scaling technology, gamma ray headlamps, an Inter-Galactic Positioning System, transforming seats with a 31-point safety harness, and the Lexus Safety System + with force field technology. In regards to styling, the jet has the Enforcer Package and can be ordered in six other colors. Check out the jet in action in "Men in Black: International" on June 14.

This LED-covered Lexus IS doubles as a display

Tue, Dec 6 2016

Why would you put 41,999 LEDs on a 2017 Lexus IS sedan? Well, for starters, because you don't have 42,000 LEDs available, but also to get attention. This car was built as a mobile programmable screen to be featured in a music video by Dua Lipa. (No, we hadn't heard of her either, but that's cool.) It's called the LIT IS, because, well, you know, and it is featured in Dua Lipa's new music video for "Be the One." Lexus says it used a mile of wire to connect all of those light sources (how much must that weigh?) and that together they put out 175,000 lumens, or about the amount of light emitted by 100 100-Watt bulbs. They're even stuck inside the spindle grille. It sort of reminds of the Swarovski crystal headlight option on a Mercedes-Benz S-Class coupe, only if the entire car were a headlight. And the headlight could change color. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. You can see the lighting system in action in the promotional video above. And in the vein of of one-off Lexus IS sedans, don't forget about the Sriracha IS that was shown at the LA auto show. For some reason. Apparently Lexus wants us to pay attention to this car. Related Video: Auto News Celebrities Design/Style Lexus Luxury Sedan lexus is
