1996 Lexus LX450 Another great vehicle offered by SaveTheLandCruisers.com This is one of nicest LC's we have ever had at STLC! Like all of our auctions this is a NO RESERVE auction so highest bidder gets this beauty. We have had this LX450 since April with MOAB and the FJ SUMMIT in mind. This truck just returned from Moab, Utah and the FJ Cruiser Summit in Ouray, CO. Not only did it run and drive great on the pavement but it manhandled the Moab and Ouray trails. We sourced this rig just for this expedition, My family of 5 really enjoyed the rock formations in Moab and the high altitude trails in Ouray (Black Bear Pass at 14k feet). Before I took this on the Utah and Colorado journey I replaced the Battery, Steering box, power steering pump, EGR Transcucer and Alternator just to make sure I did not have any issues. As we searched the country for an 80 series LC for this expedition we were looking for several factors, but the factor that weighed in on this truck was the service history. This truck was serviced since day 1 at a lexus dealership. The originally owner was very meticulous and anal with this vehicle. (See pics of documentation). Every time the vehicle was serviced it was cleaned and detailed. The interior is in great shape and the Lexus Luxury Leather is outstanding on all seat accept the drivers seat. The driver's seat is cracked and torn but still functionable. I can have the seat recovered if you are the high bidder at cost. Please check out this very detailed video of this vehicle youtube.com/watch?v=X3b7raXJljc The Goodies on this vehicle:
Things to note: This truck was a highway warrior over the first 15 yrs of its life (hence the mileage at 225k) since then it has slowly been converted to a trail vehicle, so there is some scratches (trail pinstriping) but no rust. It was my intention to put factory locking diffs on the vehicle but I could not source them in time for the journey so only the dial on the dash was inserted but the diffs never were converted. This vehicle has NO LEAKS, the front axle was just redone about 20k miles ago so not clunking noises when the wheels are turned in low 4wd. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at 504 319 2533 or if you would like to view the vehicle in person you can fly into the New Orleans Airport where we will line up transportation for you. If you are the winning bidder and want to drive the vehicle home we can pick you up at the airport. You should have no issues driving this vehicle home anywhere in the country. If you want to ship the vehicle we can help line that up to as we have shipped a couple dozen vehicles over the last couple of years. The cost of shipping is on your dime of course :) !! |

Lexus looking for performance with 600-hp LF-LC?
Sun, 27 Jul 2014Lexus has been keeping development of the production version of its LF-LC concept tightly under wraps. Last we heard, that halo GT car had received the green light for production, but that was over a year ago. Since then, things have been pretty silent. Finally though, fresh rumors about the luxury coupe are starting to leak out, pointing toward the model's powertrain lineup.
According to unnamed sources speaking to Motor Trend, the production LF-LC will eventually sport three very intriguing engine options. The base model will reportedly use a naturally aspirated V8 providing around 450 horsepower - very similar specs to the upcoming RC F. The next step up will allegedly be the upcoming hybrid powertrain shared between BMW and Toyota pumping things up to around 500 hp. Finally, a top-of-the-heap F version will use a twin-turbocharged version of the RC F's 5.0-liter V8 to bring output to 600 hp. The insiders even claim that the hybrid and the twin-turbo V8 could find their way into other Lexus products like the LS and possibly even a more beastly RC.
None of this speculation sounds too outlandish. Lexus could get more capacity out of the RC F's tuned V8 by shoving it into other models, and rumors are flying about performance cars spawned from BMW and Toyota's partnership. Given Lexus' recent embrace of turbocharging, even the twin-turbo V8 doesn't seem too dubious. That said, with no hard facts to back up the rumormill, we'll have to keep waiting to see what the LF-LC shows up with.
Toyota to pay $17.35M federal fine for delayed Lexus RX recall
Tue, 18 Dec 2012This summer, we brought you news that Lexus was recalling over 150,000 RX and RX hybrid crossovers tied to its massive pedal entrapment issue. An update to that story included word from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it was considering launching a federal investigation into potential delays by the automaker in notifying owners about the problem. Now comes news that parent company Toyota will pay a hefty $17.35 million in fines for delaying its recall of the 2010 Lexus RX 350 and RX 450h. According to The Detroit News, the Japanese automaker is being forced to pay the maximum fine for delaying recalls - and this isn't the first time. In fact, this is the fourth time since 2010 that Toyota has been required to do so, including paying $48.8M in civil penalties in 2010 for failing to recall vehicles in a timely manner - in three separate campaigns.
In addition to the fines, Toyota has agreed to restructure the way it handles quality control and review "safety-related issues." Though the Japanese automaker has not admitted any wrongdoing, Toyota has agreed to meet with NHTSA for six months on the matter and may extend the meetings another six months.
US Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood says he is counting on Toyota to improve its ability to address such safety issues: "With today's announcement, I expect Toyota to rigorously reinforce its commitment to adhering to the United States safety regulations," he said in a statement.
Lexus LF-NX Concept takes aim at the small crossover herd [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Lexus is drawing crowds with its sharply styled LF-NX Concept, a car that previews a competitor for the likes of the BMW X1, Mercedes-Benz GLK (also debuting at Frankfurt) and Audi Q3. We previewed the LF-NX last week, but we've since gotten a bit of in-person time with the compact crossover on the Frankfurt show floor.
There's a lot of show-car tinsel here, but the makings of a production model are fairly visible. That trademark Lexus face, with the separate headlight and running light arrays and an even more extreme version of the "spindle" grille, is present and accounted for. The styling is sliced and carved, like the Lexus IS, although it's difficult to tell if the production model will be quite so extreme in its looks. We'll bet yes.
Take a look above for the full set of live images from Frankfurt, then scroll down for video and some of the stock images from the original, online unveiling. Finally, click over for our complete coverage of the LF-NX from its debut, last week.
