Selling this well maintained 1997 Lexus LX450.  Originally purchased for my Lake Tahoe house but a Mercedes Benz 4-Matic wagon was just inherited.  Therefore, we are passing this well maintained "Toyota Landcruiser" on to the next snow loving family.  It was originally a lease when the current owner purchased it as a CPO-Certified Pre-Owned in 2001.  It has a clean CARFAX and clean title.  It has been lovingly maintained by a scientist, who would purchase another one today.  There is a stack of maintenance records. It still rides on Michelin tires with decent tread.  The tires can get you through the summer but I would personally change them for winter driving.  The glass is all good, the interior is decent with the exception of the front seats.  "KOBE"beef is tasty but the hides are not good for seating surfaces.  Just kidding.  The second row is in good shape. The third row most likely has never been used based upon the condition. The carpets are not stained.  The headliner does not sag.  The sunroof slides and tilts freely.  If you've NEVER driven an FJ80 in the snow, be prepared for one of the most "sure footed" vehicles ever in the snow.  They don't say, "Oh, what a feeling for nothing".  I have owned Landcruiser's in the past and they are in my own humble opinion, one of a KIND.  It may have 207,551 but when you drive it, it drive nice and sturdy.  It will go another 207 if maintained to the letter.  Why spend more money than you need??  This one is selling for NO RESERVE.  Final bid gets to take her home to enjoy. With all my auctions, a few requirements.  First, NO PAYPAL.  Second, any and all bidders with less than 10 feedback and/or negative feedback need to contact me prior to bidding with their name and contact number or your bid will be cancelled and your user id blocked from additional bidding.  Third, you are bidding to OWN, not make excuses.  Also selling in AS-IS, Where-Is condition with NO Warranties, expressed nor implied. Seller has represented vehicle to the best of his knowledge and makes no representations as to the condition of the vehicle that are unknown to seller at time of sale.  Vehicle is also advertised locally and seller reserves right to end auction early and cancel all bids if sold outside of ebay.  Any and all bidders can email for a buy it now if they cannot wait until the end of the auction. So, with a great "Lexus/Toyota" leap, let the auction begin.

Ever wonder how to really pronounce Japanese automaker names?

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

People tend to get very set in their ways when it comes to the pronunciation of words. Just look at the endless debates over whether or not to say the final 'e' in Porsche (which you should in terms of correct German enunciation). Or the argument about whether to follow the British convention and give the 'u' in Jaguar a special delivery or to say the 'ua' diphthong as more of a 'w' sound, as usually happens in the US.
This short video doesn't answer either of those automotive questions, but it does allow a native Japanese speaker to demonstrate the accepted pronunciations for several, major automakers from the country. One benefit is that it clears up the occasional debate over whether Nissan should be said with a long or short 'i' sound. Also, listen closely to how the female host says Mazda as Matsuda, the way it's actually said in the language. Even if this doesn't change the way you enunciate these brands, at least now you know the accurate way in Japanese.

2015 Lexus GS F is camo-free and frisky

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

Other than some missing badges and (hopefully) a not-yet-finished rear fascia, what you see here is an undisguised look at the long-awaited Lexus GS F high-performance sedan. Lexus' answer to the BMW M5 and Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, the GS F has been spotted again.
Unlike our previous spy shots, though, this time around, the sporty Lexus has been caught testing on the Nürburgring, so our spy shooters have managed to get a look at the car from all angles. Building on the aggressive styling of the GS F-Sport, the GS F gets bigger air intakes and a lower chin spoiler up front. Like before, we see the signature stacked exhaust outlets, but they still seemed roughed into rear fascia, which gets an aero-aiding diffuser.
We still only have guesses as to what will be under the hood, but a 465-horsepower, 5.0-liter V8 sounds good to us. Expect to see the production GS F on the road by 2015.

Will.I.Am stars in new Lexus NX commercial, designs a version for Paris

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Whether you love or hate its chiseled, angular lines and spindle grille, the Lexus NX is a big step for the brand as it jumps into the sea of luxury compact crossovers. We've already checked out the new CUV, and to promote its European launch, along with a different nose, Lexus has teamed up with producer and musician Will.I.Am for a commercial titled Striking Angles.
As the name suggests, the ad imagines a futuristic world where practically everything shares the NX's sharp-angled design aesthetic, including the wildlife. Over a thumping remix of his Dreamin' About the Future, the luxury CUV rolls through the misty city streets for Will.I.Am to check out.
That's not the end of Lexus' promotional efforts for its newest addition, though. The brand is also displaying a one-off NX styled by Will.I.Am during Paris Fashion Week. Read the automaker's entire release about its marketing plan for the CUV, below.
