One of our favorites is Toyota's 100 series SUV and this Lexus LX470 is at the top of the line up for Luxury when it comes to the 100 Series. This one owner 2001 Lexus LX470 with 152,595 miles has had extensive general service with a documented history.  No accident history, damage free body, great paint and superb interior.  When I scour the western states for LX470s and Land Cruisers, there's just one goal, find units that have been exceptionally cared for and obviously loved by their owners. When you find a 100 Series that has mileage between 100k and 200k, especially with single owner history and exceptional care, you can bet it wasn't given up too easily. After having own 30-40 of the various vintage Land Cruisers and LX Series over the last three decades, I have grown fondest to the 100 series for reliability and comfort. Although all years have their strong points, the 100s are built for comfort, luxury and off-road performance. This LX470 does it all and in style too.

Privacy glass, roof rack and running boards with built-in courtesy lights.  Weight distributing receiver hitch and full size spare tire on matching alloy wheel.

Real wood/leather, Mark Levinson audio, power tilt/telescopic steering and everything in spectacular condition. Really take a good look at all the pictures below so you can see the stunning condition this LX470 is in. Seats are beautiful, Dash gorgeous, wood brilliant and it even has a built-in Radar Detector. Air blows ice cold and the vehicle is fully serviced and ready the the road or trails. 

 

 

 

 

DVD video with 13.3 inch overhead LCD. The TV monitor powers up and comes on just like it should but the DVD player may not power up. There's a remote and I'm just not sure if the battery in the remote is bad, the remote itself is bad or the player is faulty...either way, my technological prowess has not empowered me to boot the player up.

As part of our third party 130pt service inspection, the timing belt cover was removed to inspect the timing belt and it appeared to have been replaced within the last 20-30k miles or less. No visual wear was evident. We also had the compression tested on all eight cylinders with a consistent reading at 180lbs. Obvious cosmetic care and mechanical care leads to an exceptional vehicle like this one is.

A note from the owner.

I am a “used car dealer” but before that, I’m an automobile enthusiast.  I love original rare and high quality modified vintage cars and over the past decade I’ve been in business, have come to appreciate an expanding selection of high-demand, high value vehicles.  I specialize in and am always on the lookout for cars and trucks that were cherished by their previous owners.  I have an experienced eye for quality but I’ve discovered that my preferred buyer can instantly discern such a vehicle and I have therefore, built my business and reputation around finding these kinds of cars for this type of customer.  Super low miles and/or gentle ownership are strict requirements but a car must do something for me on a personal level if there is any hope of convincing you, the bidder, that this is an above average, exceptional vehicle.  If nothing about the car excites me, it probably won’t do much for you either and I would soon be out of business.

With just four employees and no sales people, I realize how unusual a “dealership” like mine may at first glance appear.  It has taken great care and effort to create such an organization and often, an unusually high investment in a particular car we are about to list.  To sell the best it is critical to have a trusted expert in my corner and Chris, owner of A-Best Auto Repair in Henderson, Nevada has my back.  He and his crew can fix anything; from a low budget beater to the absolute most expensive exotic you can name, no job is too big and no small detail unimportant.  They do an exhaustive 130 point inspection on each and every vehicle and nothing escapes their methodical investigation.  Experience has shown that everything I spend making a car truly “right” will come back to me not only with a higher selling price, but a happy customer that says good things about me.  Moreover; it allows my writer to describe the car with ease and confidence, something that simply is not possible unless he thinks it is true.  If major issues are found or the cost of fixing the car the way it should be makes it too expensive to sell, my choice is an easy one.  I simply absorb a few hundred dollars loss for my trouble and sell it at auction.

After the vehicle is fully sorted it arrives at our facility where it encounters the suspicious eye of Tom, my writer that creates the presentations you see on eBay.  He believes absolutely nothing I or anyone else tells him about the car as he combs over every inch, researches its history and documents originality and authenticity.  Historical significance, rarity, special features, possible modifications and much more are used to accurately describe the vehicle with integrity and honesty.  Most important for the potential buyer are the 100 to 150 high resolution pictures that I take myself.  The pricey equipment I use would be right at home in the hands of the very best professional photographers and I’ve developed a logical format that walks you around the entire vehicle with close-up shots of every square inch.  I provide detailed views of the interior, under the hood and then put it on a lift to show the undercarriage and confirm that the beauty of the car you are considering is not merely skin deep.  Even our detailers are enthusiastic about the cars they so meticulously clean.  This reconditioning can sometimes take several days and I’ve converted a paint booth, especially prepared for the professional clay bar and polishing each car lovingly receives.

Usually, I’ll also include a high definition video that shows the car doing its thing.  If it’s a fast car, we film it going fast.  If it’s a 4x4 you’ll see it crawling up a hill.  In every case you will hear things like a rumbling exhaust, working sound system and watch the temperature fall on a digital, laser thermometer pointed at an air conditioning vent.  How many “dealers” will video a Lotus Esprit doing a buck-eighty?  We do.

No “dealer,” on-line or in the real world, takes it to this level.  No other seller or organization provides you, the buyer, with so much information.  I do this because it is the only way I can convince a person; often a world away, unable to touch or feel their purchase, that my vehicle is for real and what I say is the truth.  All the above is necessary for me to stay in business while keeping integrity intact.  I want every buyer to be happy and I need glowing feedback on eBay.  To accomplish that I need satisfied customers that are as thrilled with their purchase as I was when I bought it.

If you have any questions at all, please call me on my cell at: 702-353-7500.  If your inquiry is sincere and your offer  serious, you’ll find me the most accommodating business partner you’ve ever dealt with.  If you call or e-mail asking for my reserve or “what is my bottom line” I will be looking for ways to politely end the conversation.  Until you are ready to actually pull the trigger, I will happily quote you the absolute highest nationally advertised suggested retail price I can find – a number we both know will not buy the car so, don’t waste your time, or mine.  I am after all, a “used car dealer.”

Serious buyers know the maximum they can offer.  I then must simply decide if I can sell for that number.

If you hit the reserve, the decision is no longer mine.  I must sell at that number.

OFFERS GET MY ATTENTION: 702-353-7500 or Doug@vivalasvegasautos.com

A Note for Potential Victims

 

 Please let us know if you see our vehicles under listings of obvious question or if you receive a "Second Chance Offer" with any e-mail other than ours.  You can easily recognize the crooks with the stupid low "Buy it Now" price and the direct e-mails off the eBay system.  They'll never disclose a telephone number or address either.  If they won't talk to you, return a call or can't send you a copy of a title to the vehicle . . . DON'T SEND THEM MONEY or fall for their sneaky e-mails and redirects attempting to get your seller ID and password.

One of our eBay viewer noticed that we had listed a Touch Screen Navigation indash system which this unit does not have. Sorry for the error. We have a few of these so it got mixed up.
