Up for ebay auction today is something very special and hard to find...a low mile 2008 Lexus GS460 Mark Levinson edition luxury sedan with every option offered, top of the line, V8, it has it all.  Beautiful condition inside and out, runs like an Indy car and luxuries inside like a millionaire's yacht.  There are two known GS460 models in all of Kansas City proper, and she owns one of them.  If you want the best Lexus they make, and every known option including navigation, sensors, automatic rear shade, tint, sunroof, auto, full leather seating, all airbags every direction, heated seats, the list goes on and on.  I suggest you Google this model for all the options on a "Mark Levinson" model, it would take up a full page. 

Speaking of Mark Levinson, this is the finest car audio in existence, and one of the main reasons I purchased the car for her.  She loves her stereo and nothing beats the quality, this option alone is in the $6000+ range!  Speakers everywhere in this treasure.  Every navigation and electronic button works like it should, auto climate, so many I can't keep up with all the electronic marvels.  If there's an option you desire, ask me about it and I'll reply "yes" because this model has everything in the catalog.  

Exterior is amazingly beautiful and straight, pearl white, with the very minor highway chip here and there but it's hard to spot from 6 ft. away, you'd have to get up close.  Any time I sell one of my collectible cars I have to mention that it's a previously-owned car, not a brand new off the dealer showroom floor car...so please, expect a little wear somewhere.  But I can't find any dents or dings anywhere, maybe hood chips if you look, but overall...this Lexus is in amazing condition!  Look at the pictures!  Enlarge them with the ebay cursor...you'll be hard pressed to find a 2008 nicer than this one.  Good luck with that search.  Am I bragging?  Yeah, a little, can't help it on this example.  It's always been garage stored and looks it.  Paint glistens in the sun, always professionally detailed during the year, always maintained at our Lexus dealership in town.  Whatever it needs along the way, it gets.  Considering this vehicle retailed new at $64,000, you are buying a Lexus that most will not have seen...a V8 GS460, limited production and marketed mainly to the West and East coast dealers with scattered southern state availability.

Included in the sale:  original FOB transponder key with newer battery so you won't have to bother with that for a few years use, all original owner's manuals, any paperwork associated to the car that might be in the glovebox.  All four original Lexus stitched floor mats come with, all have been professionally cleaned and detailed with the car itself and located in the trunk.  GS460 uses premium gasoline and I will fill the tank for the new owner so you can get in and drive home without stopping at the gas station.  I think that covers it.  

My wife has owned and enjoyed this Lexus from 7600 miles to its current number, and drives it daily so that number could change by the time you win the bid.  Once the reserve has been met, she will park it in the garage with a tarp over it and from that point on...it sits until a new owner is determined.  The salvage title represents an early wreck and insurance claim dealer repair in California from owner number one.  We are owner #2.  Everything was Lexus dealer serviced/repaired and inspected before insurance sale bidding began.  If you know anything about insurance claim sales, they repair the vehicles at the factory dealership of the car.  No aftermarket parts or subpar mechanics used.  Expensive, Lexus-trained personnel and expensive Lexus OEM parts only used on this one.  That's why I purchased it in the first place!  You won't notice a thing different between this vehicle or a clear title Lexus other than the title stating as such.  Drives like a low mile sedan, performs in every way without hitch, no known current issues you need to deal with...Lexus is ready for sale and because of that salvage title, you will own something special, out of reach financially for most, but for a price most successful people could afford.  No one will own a nicer Lexus anywhere, in any city for this reasonable of a price because I purchased the car correctly from day one.  I will not give the Lexus away for Volkswagen money, just being as honest as I can be upfront so you don't get your hopes up and want to lowball and waste time.  This is a luxury supercar loaded and scarce on the market, running perfect and looking as nice as any 2008 on anyone's lot in America.  It's been taken care of by a local celebrity mortgage executive and it shows.  She wanted a car that nobody else was driving around town and one that had all the options Lexus offers.  Also of note:  never ever smoked in...owner is non-smoker.  That's important to me when buying a car and I know it's important to many.  If this is something you are ready for, get your finances in order, make a decision to own, not just bid for bidding sake...and somebody is going to hit the jackpot today on this gem.

2008 Lexus GS460 Mark Levinson sedan is sold "as is/where is" from Kansas City, MO, 64111.  There are no warranties expressed or implied.  Buyer must satisfy payment in full within 7 days after auction end.  Wired funds to the Kansas City Policemen's Credit Union are accepted, must settle before transfer of any property.  Cash in hand is also acceptable before any property transfer takes place.  Do not show up with cashier's check in hand and expect to drive away, that's not happening.  Any funds must settle or clear credit union before any title signing or transport of vehicle, no exceptions whatsoever.  If any of these rules are not acceptable to you, please do not bid.  I am a serious seller and this is a serious machine selling for serious money.  I have "clear" salvage title in hand, no liens or loans whatsoever, and that title will be signed over, dated, in full compliance once funds have been satisfied to me, the owner. If you have a problem with buying salvage title cars, please do not bid.  Thousands of salvage title cars sell every day on ebay and all have insurable, loanable titles just like clear "non-salvage" but for any reason you are not comfortable with this, please let someone else buy the car.  Every car sale I make goes through smooth as silk and I consider salvage car buying the ultimate "deal" in the car buying market.  

Once payment is made in full to the seller's satisfaction, transport home of your Lexus is next on the schedule.  It is up to you, the buyer, totally to take care of transport arrangements with various companies or paid drivers, etc.  You handle all the details of transport.  Can you drive this car home?  Of course you can, and if you're within driving distance...that's what I'd do.  I would get in this beauty and drive to any point on the map, it's serviced, it's comfortable, and you'll never drive anything like it on the highway.  Power galore and quiet interior, smooth handling.  If you're a buyer who likes to keep the miles down and want a rollaway transport, then make arrangements.  Please keep in mind, if you're not familiar with the GS460 that it sits rather low to the ground and needs a rollaway type transport or car-specific company to do the hauling.  Like BMW, Mercedes, Audi and such, you are buying a high end luxury sedan that needs proper treatment when transporting.  You're buying something special, don't let just anybody haul it to save a $100 bucks!

Almost done...I will hold the car, undriven in my garage, for a couple weeks while you get your business together on transport, but need to be paid in full...I repeat...PAID IN FULL within 7 days time after auction end.  I'm reasonable, I'm fair, but eventually I want my garage space back so do not pay for the car and a month later show up to take it home.  Please, pick up the Lexus within a couple weeks time, is that too much to ask?  I don't think so.  I'll work with you but let's keep the time frame reasonable for both the buyer and seller.  I think that covers it.  Good luck to all bidders and I know she is going to miss this treasure, it has served her well these past 4+ years of ownership, loved every day of it.  I doubt we'll ever own something this nice again, maybe, but doubtful.  What's nicer than a GS460 Mark Levinson?  Not much in that price range, I can tell you that.  Somebody is going to love this car.  Let the bidding begin...

Toyota profits up 23% on high US sales, despite mounting legal costs

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Toyota earned $9.3 billion in net income in the financial year that ends next month. The number beats earlier forecasts and marks a five-year high for the automaker, with both operating income and revenue up by 9.5 percent and 2.5 percent, respectively. Toyota saw quarterly profit enjoy a year-on-year jump of 23.4 percent, with the manufacturer earning more than $1 billion between October and December 2012. The good news comes in spite of the fact that the Japanese automaker actually endured an operating loss in North America, due in part to legal fees.
Toyota is set to pay more than $1 billion to owners who claim their vehicles decreased in value as a result of the company's recent spate of recalls. Even so, all three of the automaker's brands enjoyed a 13.5 percent sales increase in the US in the last quarter, beating the industry average. Toyota faltered in Europe, however, where it earned $99 million in operating profit last year, compared to $111 million in 2011. You can take a closer look at the company's full press release below for more information.

2018 Lexus LS has a livelier look and new twin-turbo V6

Mon, Jan 9 2017

When considering that the Lexus LC 500 made it to production virtually unchanged from concept form, it was reasonable to think that the LS would similarly follow suit. Especially when the LS shares the LC's GA-L platform. Unfortunately, it didn't pan out that way. It is possible to spot cues inspired by the LF-FC concept, such as the lower contour of the windows, the crease in the metal leading up to the rear wheel, and of course the lights and spindle grille. But they're overshadowed by the fact that this LS has a significant amount more girth. View 14 Photos Just because it doesn't live up to the concept doesn't mean it's a bad looking car. It's far more interesting to look at than the dated, upright LS currently on dealer lots. It also sits quite low and the wheels and tires fill the wells nicely, which gives it a road-hugging stance. There are some nifty design details, too, such as the glass that is completely flush with the pillars. View 28 Photos As already mentioned, the new body is wrapped around a stretched version of the LC's platform, and it also uses its 10-speed automatic. Surprisingly, though, the LS doesn't use the LC's powertrain. Under the hood is a completely new twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 that pumps out 415 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque. That puts it down on power, but ahead in torque compared with the LC's V8. It's also significantly more than the previous LS' V8, and Lexus predicts it will be capable of a 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds with rear-wheel drive. A Lexus PR representative also said the LS is only being released with the V6. We doubt it would be hard to drop one in later though if Lexus saw demand. Inside, the LS is more interesting than the outside would suggest. The dash is clearly inspired by the LC 500, utilizing a similar gauge pod with traction control and drive mode selectors protruding from each side. The dash is also dominated by a wide, dark section that houses the 12.3-inch infotainment display. Just below that, is an attractive strip of slats that follow the contours of the dash and house the air vents. Back seat passengers also will have a pleasant environment thanks to the fact that the LS will only be available in a long wheelbase form, so leg room will never be in short supply. They also will have access to available reclining seats, ottoman, and Shiatsu massage functionality. According to a spokesman, the Japanese-style of massage function is a first for the LS.
