1st Generation 1994 Lexus LS 400. Original white pearlescent exterior paint. Overall good running condition and smooth riding car. Alignment and tire balance are excellent. Recently had the alternator replaced in March of this year and fuel system cleaned. The rack and pinion was replaced about 3 years ago. I will include all paper work of service done while I have owned the vehicle. The service tech at AAA explained that the vehicle will be in need of a tune up sometime in the future. I usually clean the K&N air filter twice a year. Vehicle has good brakes and rotors. The battery is new as of 2011. Overall the engine runs strong still with no knocking and has great pick up for its age. Since I have owned the vehicle in 2008 I only run 93 gas in it from Shell. Transmission shifts very smooth while accelerating and has either normal or power mode,vehicle has great pick up speed as it is a V8. The inside of the vehicle has some cracks on the front leather seats from heat and age and it has been smoked in. Otherwise the back leather seats and floors are very clean. The dashboard cluster has the classic Lexus problem of not turning on and flashing especially when its cold outside. Lately if I take the vehicle for a drive over 20 minutes it eventually turns on, but until then it is dark and hard to read. This is a problem with the capacitors on the cluster unit. This can be repaired although the cluster has to be removed from the car and have the capacitors changed on the board, I have complete instructions on how to do this. If you have the know how on this type of repair it is only a few dollars to repair, otherwise I know that you can find the repair service here on ebay. The gas gauge does not give a reading for sometime after the car has been on this is also caused by a bad capacitor on the cluster unit which can be repaired with the same service as the lights. The odometer still keeps accurate mileage even though it cannot be read until the cluster turns on. The A/C and heater both work great although the LCD displays for the time and temp setting have both blacked out so they cannot be read( which is another common problem for this year Lexus). Stereo works great and has a six disc CD changer in the trunk, the antenna works well and raises and lowers as it should. All power windows and moonroof open well with no issues. Otherwise the only other interior issue is the headliner towards the back window on the driver side needs a couple new clips as the original clips have come off at some point so it hangs down a little. The exterior paint is overall pretty good condition with only a couple spots of sun damage on the roof with some pitting in the paint in front of the moon roof and a couple small spots about the size of a pin head on the hood where light rust has started from road chips. Body has no dents. The front bumper was repainted in 2009 as the paint was wearing off the top part in front of the grill and was yellowing (like the gray lower area along the back where it meets the chrome middle divider). The company that painted it tried to match it up as best they could although where it was repainted is a slight color off from the rest of the car, as the paint on the rest of the vehicle has faded over the years from the sun and is pretty much impossible to get an exact match on. Vehicle has had dent repair done on the hood and roof from hail in 2011 through a Geico certified body shop (Wilburn Repair Charlotte). Dual exhaust system is in great condition with no issues. Wipers work great. Right front headlight glass has a very small hole in it about the size of a bb, all lights work as they should (headlights, taillights etc..) Tires have a lot of tread left with some cracking on all four. Rims are after market and are very clean with no scratches which I purchased from Discount Tire. Spare tire is the original Lexus rim that came with car. Trunk is very clean and has tool kit and first aid kit along with full size spare.Comes with original key fob and two extras. Overall has been a great vehicle for me, I just got a SUV so vehicle has just been sitting. Feel free to ask any questions. Phone # available upon request. Clean title in hand. Buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping. Serious buyers only please, any non pay will be reported to ebay resolution center.

2014 Lexus GS gets eight-speed auto, other enhancements
Thu, 26 Sep 2013The Lexus GS was totally redesigned for the 2013 model year, but Lexus is already tweaking its midsize luxury sedan. While a handful of small changes are being made, the big news for the 2014 model year is that rear-wheel-drive GS350 models will be getting a new eight-speed automatic transmission for improved fuel economy and performance.
Official EPA estimates have yet to be released, but Lexus expects this new transmission to return 19 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway - an improvement of 1 mpg highway. The GS450h still uses a continuously variable transmission, but Lexus says that it has been optimized to mimic the shift points of an eight-speed automatic. The final powertrain change made to the 2014 Lexus GS include tweaks to the GS350's engine intake and exhaust systems, which should help give the sedan a sportier feel.
Inside, Lexus has added Siri Eyes Free inside both the GS350 and GS450h, which allows drivers to use their iPhone's Siri voice assistant simply by pushing a button on the steering wheel. Other changes include a new full-color head-up display, and an available power trunk opener. A new Luxury Package adds LED fog lights, 18-inch "superchrome" wheels on the GS350 and 18-inch graphite-finish wheels on the GS450h. Interesting, the optional Lexus Night View system has been dropped.
Lexus reveals production RC coupe en route to Tokyo
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Feast your eyes, ladies and gentlemen, on the new Lexus RC coupe. With the exception of the six-figure LFA supercar, it's the first stand-alone two-door model to come from Toyota's premium brand since the demise of the SC, and it's coming to the Tokyo Motor Show later this month.
With unmistakably Japanese styling, the Lexus RC is clearly inspired by the LF-CC and LF-LC concepts, and features the brand's signature spindle grille. Anyone who's been inside a contemporary Lexus should feel right at home inside the four-seat cabin, where the Japanese automaker has fitted ambient lighting that glows upwards instead of down, coupled with a new Remote Touch Interface.
Lexus has already announced two versions of the coupe: the conventional RC350 with a 3.5-liter gasoline engine and the RC300h with a 2.5-liter hybrid setup. It's all packed into a form that, for comparison's sake, is slightly larger than the new BMW 4 Series but markedly smaller (in every dimension but height) than a 6 Series.
Next-gen Lexus IS design revealed to be swoopiest yet
Wed, 09 Jan 2013We drove it while it was covered in cloth and vinyl not long ago, but before the 2014 Lexus IS350 F-Sport gets revealed at the Detroit Auto Show and we find out everything about it, Lexus has graced us with images. In addition to the spindle grille - with an elevated waistline on the F-Sport - the coming IS gets a jagged set of dual-beam headlights with L-shaped DRLs that are, for the first time on a Lexus, separate from the main units. Further back, the side sills get a twist and intense sculpting throughout the length of the longer wheelbase.
Inside is an LFA-inspired cockpit with thinner sport seats and more room in just about every area, the moving "driver's meter" in the dash cluster, electrostatic controls for cabin temperature control, 60/40 folding rear seats and "metal film 3-D-effect ornamentation."
The F-Sport package will be available on the IS250, IS350, IS300h equipped with Lexus Hybrid Drive. The hybrid will not come to the US.
