*Note: We understand that there are those who think we should NOT use models in our ads. 

eBay has removed some of our ads from eBay siting we violate this policy. http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/search-manipulation.html   

I have read their policy, you can read their policy. 

eBay claims that we create an unfair search advantage by picturing models in our ads with our cars.

Even though the model & the car are pictured together, eBay claims we are picturing unrelated items with our cars to give us an advantage over other sellers.

eBay stated that I can only post pictures of the cars and cannot exercise any means to disadvantage other sellers from our potential buyers.

We understand that ALL of our pictures, information, details and presentation may potentially disadvantage sellers who don't equally present like vehicles in the same manner.

Our page views, bids, comments and messages, then ultimately the sale, definably prove an advantage to us when we list our own cars without models then later with a model.

eBay enforcing this policy that does not define the use of "models within ads" upon our presentation and not with others is discriminatory on so many levels.

Let's be clear, the models pictured with the cars are paid for the express purpose of showing off and presenting our cars. 

They are not included with the sale of the vehicles or available to go with the vehicles at any point during the presentation online.  

In other words, Models Not Included

But included with this sale, the winning bidder that does complete the transaction will receive all digital photographs of the car and the models showing with the car. 

 If there are any litigators that would like to advise me on how I am violating eBay's Policy, I'd love to hear from you.

One owner, 2002 Lexus IS300 SportCross wagon.  133,714 freeway miles, lifetime Henderson, Nevada vehicle.  Inline 6-cylinder engine, rear wheel drive, Xenon HID headlamps, premium audio with 6-disc in-dash changer, 8-way power driver and passenger seats, moon roof, chronograph instruments, chrome shift knob, Leather/Ecsaine Trim Package slotted/drilled rotors, red painted calipers, strut tower brace, white side marker lights, headlamp brows and dark tint.  Starts, runs and drives like new.  A/C blows cold, stereo sounds awesome and the car is an absolute gem to own and drive.  Looks and functions like a vehicle with half as many miles . . .

 

Rare quality condition for sure and this IS300 actually is rare.  Only 1,958 built for '02 and from 2002 to 2005 (years available) total SportCross production for all four years was just 3,078.  That means this bad boy will be worth like, a million dollars at some point in the future.  Probably several million . . .

No doubt about it, wagons are hot these days.  Body seams and panel alignment are tight, consistent and typically Lexus . . .

 

The SportCross's overall length is nearly identical to the sedan version but offers a lot more room in back and a lot more loading options . . .

 

Besides a much sleeker shape than the sedan, the SportCross comes with staggered wheels.  The sedan has 7-inch wide wheels front and rear but the wagon's rear wheels are a half inch wider, with one size up tires. (rear: 225/45ZR17 front: 215/45ZR17)

 

With a silky smooth inline six, sequential Sport Shift 5-speed automatic and rear wheel drive, the first generation IS was much desired when new and has been strong in the used car market ever since.  The SportCross brings a lot to the table (HIDs, killer audio, lots of seating/loading configurations) but another reason people want these so much is actually quite simple.  It's a Lexus; designed-in quality and built right in the first place.  This particular 2002 Lexus IS300 SportCross is a respected, high quality vehicle having just one previous owner that (obviously) loved and cared for their ride.  Never been in an accident, great body, outstanding paint, gorgeous interior and mechanical reliability.  You should buy it . . .

 

My wife and I took this little wagon to Utah a day after it arrived at our facility.  It was then my driver for about two weeks.  Besides impeccable reliability and near functional perfection during that time, some important fundamentals stood out and I think these things separate the IS300 from the rest of the herd.  Handling and balance of this car reminded me again and again why top sport sedans (and wagons!) are proper front engine/rear wheel drive and unlike most 6-cylinders these days, the IS300 is an inline six.  Why does that matter?  It mostly doesn't except it seems smoother, sounds better and I like how it feels.  The IS300 is surprisingly up-market, too.  When I turned on the lights, ice-white illumination told me this bad boy had HIDs.  Pretty cool, and the chronograph cluster was fun too.  Both seats are 8-way power adjustable, the optional stereo is strong and the air blew ice-cold the whole time.  I'll admit having small concern about taking an unknown vehicle on a trip so soon after getting it.  My past experience with the brand should have set my mind at ease.   Every Lexus I've ever known has been a superbly built car and this gem was no different.  It simply does not look, feel, drive or function like a "high mileage" vehicle in any way.  The above pictures are Saturday morning a few hours after our very late arrival the night before  The little wagon performed marvelously and we had a great time.  Made all the better with a comfortable car that had enough room for an occasional relative, and we didn't mind being seen in it.

                                                                                                  -Foy

 

Driver and passenger frontal/side airbags, 8-way power driver and passenger seats, automatic air conditioning, tilt steering, 240-watt/9-speaker premium audio with 6-disc in-dash changer, amplifier and equalizer.  All of it in great condition . . .

 

This SportCross has the Leather/Ecsaine Trim package which includes the suede seat inserts, power passenger seat and HomeLink universal transceiver . . .

 

The back offers lot of loading configurations and there's even a "hidden" covered storage bin just behind the rear seat.  Under everything is a full size spare tire mounted on a matching alloy wheel . . .

 

133,714 is actually extremely low mileage for a 12-year old car.  With barely 11k a year, this Lexus is well below industry average . . .

Lexus gets new boss, and he's a designer

Wed, 26 Feb 2014

A reshuffle in the uppermost ranks of Lexus could see the Japanese luxury brand further energize its recent focus on design. Tokuo Fukuichi, Toyota's global design boss, is the new head of Lexus International.
Fukuichi will retain his role as the overall head of design for Toyota, Lexus and Scion, and will assume his new position at the head of Lexus and on its board on April 1 (no fooling). This is going to be an interesting move for fans of design to watch, as Fukuichi has repeatedly been mentioned as a designer that enjoys pushing the edge of the envelope and experimenting. He is, after all, the man responsible for designing the most awesomely odd minivan of the 1990s, the mid-engined, rear-drive Toyota Previa, and more recently, he signed off on the controversial Lexus LF-NX concept, which is said to presage a new production small crossover.
"Regarding changes in design, no one has 100 percent confidence," Fukuichi told Forbes back in January 2013. "No one can really say with pure certainty that, 'In two years, this will sell well.'" As Akio Toyoda continues to demand more assertive, edgier designs, it's that point of view that should make Fukuichi a valuable addition to Lexus, as it continues to challenge the competition from Germany.

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.

Lexus takes to Pikes Peak in RC F GT Concept

Wed, Jun 24 2015

Lexus is gearing up to take on Pikes Peak with the RC F GT Concept you see here, developing the new racing prototype for the venerable hillclimb event. Different from the more extreme GT3 and GT500 racing concepts we've seen to date, the new GT concept is more closely based the road-going RC F. Only it's leaner and meaner and ready to take on the grueling 12.4-mile race to the clouds and all its 156 turns. The RC F GT packs the same 5.0-liter V8 and eight-speed automatic transmission as the production model. The major difference is that it weighs some 800 pounds less, thanks largely to the widespread use of carbon fiber body panels and polycarbonate windows. It also incorporates a more aggressive aero kit and rolling stock, and allows the technicians to tune the engine for competition applications. To tackle the Peak, Lexus is handing the keys over to none other than Justin Bell, the former GT2 class winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the FIA GT Championship. He'll be fielding the RC F GT in the Time Attack class for production-based vehicles, while providing Lexus engineers with valuable performance data and the chance to develop components for future applications. Two years ago, the IS F CCS-R prototype competed in the same event, and served as a test bed to develop the powertrain that went into the RC F that followed. Related Video: LEXUS TO COMPETE IN 2015 PIKES PEAK INTERNATIONAL HILL CLIMB WITH ALL-NEW RC F GT CONCEPT - V8 Powered, Production Car-based Coupe to be Driven by Justin Bell - RC F GT Program to Serve as Key Developmental Tool for F brand Engineering June 22, 2015 TORRANCE, Calif. (June 22, 2015) – On June 28th, Lexus will compete in the Time Attack class of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. The luxury automaker will be campaigning the all-new RC F GT Concept, a vehicle that builds upon the legacy of the IS F CCS-R vehicles that last competed at Pikes Peak in 2013. This historic event, now in its 93rd running, is a race against the clock that tests man and machine with the changing elements, altitude, and a treacherous 12.42 mile, 156 turn course that winds up the peak from 9,390 feet up to the 14,115 foot summit. The new Lexus will be piloted up the mountain by British driving ace, 24 Hours of Le Mans winner, and automotive media personality Justin Bell. "With very little time behind the wheel, the RC F GT Concept has already proven fast and easy to drive, very much like the production models, actually.
