Up for sale is my 2002 Lexus SC430 Convertible

The interior is in incredible condition, no rips/splits/cracks/worn seams, the interior is just amazing. Full power and heated front seats, headrests lift and tilt, very comfortable to drive. Although the rear seats are in equally great condition, they are also the reason we decided to sell it; we need more leg-room for backseat passengers. The exterior is a nice deep gloss black, takes well to a good wash/buff/wax, very sharp. Navigation system works fine, the Mark Levinson stereo system sounds really nice, Cd player can be a bit finicky (doesn't like to play particular CDs), the power antenna does not extend but the radio still picks up my local channels just fine. The climate control center has a couple of dead pixels (see pic, basically where a "5" doesn't show up as a full five, or a "9" doesn't show as a full nine - only on a couple of spots, not the entire screen), it's still easy to view and understand. The air conditioning is not ice cold.

The exterior has a couple of dime-sized pings here and there - I took a picture of one of them to help describe what I mean. There is an area on the bottom of the front bumper (passenger side) that has some curb scratches below the fog light, see photos for more details. The convertible top goes up and down smooth, no grinding or stalling - very fast operation. I'll be posting a video shortly that shows it in operation, along with the engine starting/running. Please review the video to see top functioning and engine start & run.

The engine runs good, transmission shifts nice and smooth, no issues with rear-end, brakes are nice and solid, car tracks good and straight, tires are in good healthy condition appear to have plenty amount of tread left, the rims have some scratches on the edges but nothing overly critical, exhaust is nice a crisp deep sound. Timing belt was changed about 52K miles ago, so you have about 38K miles before it should be changed again according to Lexus.

Although the car has a lot of miles on it, it certainly doesn't show. Toyota/Lexus has used this engine in a number of models, and there are plenty running around with well over 300K miles on them. This is not a cheap 150K/mile throw-away car, Toyota/Lexus is known for building long-life cars. I cannot guarantee anything will not go wrong, but the likelihood is certainly much lower than most any other manufacturer. I'm selling the car as-is/where-is, no warranties expressed or implied. I'm more than happy to answer questions, and I'm also willing to help your shipping company get the car loaded. Buyer is responsible for making shipping arrangements and paying any shipping fees.

I apologize for the pictures being a little dark, I didn't want to take the car outside because of the ice and rain. As soon as we have some good sun I'll switch out the pictures for some sunny shots. I have the title in-hand and ready to transfer.

Thanks.

Lexus NX begins production in Japan [w/videos]

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Lexus entered new territory this past April when it revealed the new NX compact luxury crossover at the Beijing Motor Show, but it wasn't until now that the Toyota luxury division actually started building them. The first production examples started rolling off the assembly line last week at the Miyata plant in Japan, with the accompanying turbo engines built at the adjacent Kanda plant.
The arrival of the NX marks both the first time that Lexus has produced a compact crossover - an increasingly important segment for luxury automakers - and the first time Lexus has offered a turbocharged engine, one of two options alongside the hybrid version. The NX builds on two previous competences exhibited by Toyota: one is the RAV4, which pioneered the compact crossover segment back in 1994, the other being the Lexus RX that was among the first luxury crossovers when it arrived in '97.
Lexus reports that it has already taken some 6,500 pre-orders in Japan alone, with many more coming in from markets around the world - including ours, where it is sure to be a key player for the Japanese automaker alongside the hot-selling RX. Watch the videos below to see the NX starting its production run in Japan.

Lexus US execs want the LF-1 Limitless concept or something like it

Sat, Jan 20 2018

Many years ago, Mercedes-Benz counted many blue moons debating about and then hinting at a full-sized SUV, before the GLS-Class arrived in 2007 (known then as the GL-Class). After that, Audi and BMW each grabbed a gilded handle on The Waffler's Cup, equivocating for years about a Q8 and an X7, respectively; both of those luxurious load-haulers are expected in showrooms soon. Having seen the Lexus LF-1 Limitless Concept at the Detroit Auto Show, we wonder if Lexus intends to hoe that same row - dodging years of questions about a production version of the LF-1 Limitless before finally committing. Lexus US general manager Jeff Bracken hopes that's not the case. His address to the unveil audience at the NAIAS included the appeal, "We have to build this vehicle," aimed at his boss, Lexus global chief Yoshihiro Sawa. Bracken stoked the flames of his own desire after the reveal, telling journalists, "We couldn't be happier if we turned this into a production vehicle," and, "We clearly have a gap at the high-end premium cross-utility segment." We're certain plenty of his colleagues share the sentiments, and why wouldn't they? A Lexus LS-based family functionary begs the question, "Why isn't this already a thing?" The LF-1 Limitless does fierce, futuristic service to its Ghost in the Shell design philosophy of "molten katana," and Lexus needs a proper three-row crossover. Not the three-row RX, nor the opulent, cretaceous GX and LX SUVs, but a unibody crossover to challenge the aforementioned German rivals. If Lexus really does "want to be the brand which is emotionally connected with the customer," it would do well to begin its courtship with this rose-copper gem.

Lexus LF-C2 Concept shows polarizing looks are here to stay

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

Well, that's one question answered. When Lexus released the first teaser for its LF-C2 Concept, we figured it'd be one of two things - either it'd be a convertible based on the LF-LC Concept car or it'd be a thinly veiled concept version of the RC Convertible. Turns out, it's kind of both.
The LF-LC styling straddles the wilder, concepty looks of the LF-LC and the still wild, but more grounded, looks of the RC. That doesn't mean it's not a polarizing piece of design, with Lexus styling trademarks like the dominating spindle grille and separate LED running lights. Lexus' knife-edge cuts and folds in the bodywork have been toned down relative to past concepts, but the overall look here, particularly in the rear fenders, is rather busy.
"The LF-C2 concept shows what's in store for our brand's future design direction," Lexus boss Jeff Bracken said. "This concept shows consumers around the world Lexus' devotion to emotional designs as well as our passion for an exceptional driving experience."
