I am always available by mail at: delmerdttigner@cricketfans.net . Up for sale is my pride and joy. I hate to sell this car, but I have an
opportunity that I don’t want to miss out on, so the Lexus is the first to
go. If it doesn’t sell, I have other assets I can liquidate which would
allow me to keep this baby.
The car is a 2011 Lexus IS-F. It’s in amazing shape, and I’ve babied it
ever since the day I got it. It was 100% stock when I bought it, and since
delivery, I’ve added some mods to suit my taste. I’ve only put 13,000
miles on this baby since I got it. It was manly a weekend, sunny day driver,
however I did take it on a road trip to Michigan last year and it was great. I
have never had any problems with the car what so ever.. not a single one!
Every oil change has been done at the dealership Lexus of Tulsa, and they
preformed a recall issue that had something to do with the radiator fan
shroud. I’m not 100% what it was, but they did it while the car was in for
an oil change even though I never experienced any issues.
History of the car shows it was a total loss back in 2013. Before I bought
this car, I did extensive research, asked many many questions to the seller, and
drove the car on 2 different occasions before pulling the trigger to purchase.
The reason Carfax shows it as an insurance loss is because the 1st owner was
trying to parallel park, hit a car, and the owner of the other car keyed this
poor IS-F so bad that the entire car needed to be repainted. There is not
mechanical damage to the vehicle. The car drives PERFECT and straight!
The car has been lowered on BC Racing Coilovers. I have it set kinda low, and
have had 4 adults in the car while cruising down the highway. It will rub on
big bumps. The beauty of coilovers… you an adjust the height to your
liking. You can raise it up if it sits to low for your taste. Wheels are
Vossen CV3’s 20x9 (front) & 20x10.5 (rear). Brand new tires were bought 3000
miles ago.
The car is also outfitted with a fully integrated, concealed K-40 360i Radar
detector. System include front & rear radar sensors, 2 laser jammers in the
front, and 1 laser jammer in the rear. Leds are flush mounted between the center
vents for easy viewing while keeping my your eyes on the road. The system is
operated by a wireless remote control, and has a hidden speaker for audible
alerts. This thing will save your butt, I promise you that. Worth every
penny I spent on it!
Body mods are limited to a rear bumper diffuser that was on the car when I
purchased it. For a safer night driving experience, I added 2 light bars
behind the front bumper. Behind the top grill, sits a 24” LED bar, and
behind the lower grill hides a 32” LED bar. While I was at it, The factory
fog lights were replaced in favor of a set of 4x4 Rigid LED blocks. All of
these are wired into a switch to the left of the steering wheel where the blank
knock outs were. I also have them wired into the factory fog light switch for
easy on/off while cruising down the highway. Also behind the front grill are 4
red/blue police lights as well as strobe lights in the headlights. These are
wired to a switch to the left of the steering wheels as well. Obviously, you
don’t want to turn these lights on while cruising on a public road. These
were just an extra toy for car shows/meets. Highly illegal on the highway,
I’m sure… however… people WILL get out of your way if you’re coming up
behind them and you “accidently” bump the switch. The tail lights have
been lightly tinted.. just enough to kill the obnoxious bright red color.
There is still a red hue, and lights are still very visible.
Under the car, I had a custom exhaust installed. By doing this, not only did
it increase the power, but it sounds AMAZING, and the car lost 110lbs from
removing all the factory pipes, mufflers, and cats. I purchased a set of
Sikky headers a month ago from a shop in Dallas. They arrived last week, but I
haven’t been able to get the car down there for the installation of them.
Headers will be included with the car, but install is your responsibility. The
shop quoted me $700 for install, and would need the car for 2 days. I’m
afraid if I take the car to get them installed, then I will end up keeping it…
which really wouldn’t be a bad thing I guess.
The sound system is absolutely nuts! I had 4 goals in mind when I built
this…
1) To keep the interior completely stock looking and alter as little
as possible.
2) To build a trunk that would blow people away and stand out at car
shows.
3) To obtain loud, clear sound.
4) To Keep and have access to the spare tire.
All 4 goals were met, and this system sounds and looks truly amazing. In the
pictures, you’ll see an Audio Control DQL-8. This was from a previous build
that I did in my last car, but it took a dump on me and I have since replaced it
with a JBL MS-8. The quality of the MS-8 is sooooo much better than the Audio
Control. The system is pretty elaborate and the only factory piece is the
Head Unit for obvious reasons. Steering wheel control, voice recognition…
everything factory still works as it should. The Factory Mark Levinston amp
feeds the JBL MS-8 digital processor. From there, signal travels to a pair of
Kicker IX amps. The sub amp is an IX1000.1, and the 4 channel is an IX500.4.
The sub amp powers a single Kicker 10” L7 Subwoofer in a ported box. The sub
fires into the front of the car through the ski hole. The rear arm rest can be
folded up and the sub is completely out of site. The 4 channel amp powers 2
sets of top of the line Pioneer D-series component speakers. These components
are located in the 4 doors. The center channel in the dash was swapped out for
3.5” Kicker speaker for added clarity. The sound stage and clarity is spot
on and can be adjusted with the MS-8 if you prefer. The front ash tray is
missing (underneath the sliding door in front of the shifter) because this is
where the Audio Control display/controller was located. Under the sliding
door, there is just a big hole. I haven’t located an ash try or built a
housing for the MS-8 display yet. In the trunk, There are 2 fuse
distribution centers for all of the added accessories. There are strobe lights
and RGB LED lighting inside the sub box/amps/fuse centers. All the panels were
covered in black leather, with the exception of the trim panel around the MS-8,
which was covered in silver carbon fiber to flow with the exterior of the car
and the center consol look. Added to the factory head unit was a
Navigation Unlock module, which allows you to access the portions of the head
unit that would normally be locked out while the vehicle is in motion. This
also allows the DVD player to display video while driving. The switch is
hidden but easy to get to.
The clear coat on the Vossen wheels are starting to peel off. You can’t tell
from a distance, but its bad enough to bug me. I’ve contacted a local wheel
repair shop and the cost to redo them is $140/wheel ($560 total) plus the cost
of dismounting and remounting/balancing the tires. If I end up keeping the
car, this will be the second thing I get done. The first will be the
headers! There are a few really small minor blemishes on one of the door
panels inserts, but you have to look to even notice.
The car is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma and is available to see/drive almost any
time

Jaguar solution to keyless start could save lives
Mon, May 14 2018UPDATED: An earlier version of this story indicated the Jaguar keyless start function was meant as a safety feature, when in fact, it is meant as a convenience one and will not work as described if automatic stop/start is not engaged. Today, The New York Times published an article about more than two dozen deaths related to drivers accidentally leaving their cars running, closing their garages and later succumbing to carbon monoxide that flooded their homes. The reason has been identified as "keyless start" features, or proximity entry and push-button start, where owners don't need to physically handle a key or fob to gain entry into the vehicle or start it. It is the latest, and deadliest, issue raised with this system after those related to security and simple inconvenience (for instance, leaving the car at a valet or car wash with the fob in your pocket). From my personal perspective, The New York Times had a rather harsh "evil carmakers" tone throughout the article. This is not a matter of a known faulty component, as with the GM ignition switch recall. This has as much to do with user error where people leave their car without pressing the "off" button and without noticing the engine is still running. About half of the cars in question are produced by Toyota and Lexus, brands that have offered keyless start longer than most. They are also brands with high rates of elderly owners, who seemingly made up a majority of reported deaths and injuries. One fire department in Florida even started a campaign alerting those in the area of the dangers of leaving your car running when it noticed a correlation between an increase in cars equipped with keyless start and calls related to carbon monoxide poisoning. I see several contributing issues at play, most of which go well beyond this particular issue. First is insufficient training of owners by dealers and/or owners not paying close enough attention during this training. Cars are complicated, but you should at least know how basic functions work. Second, woefully inadequate driver training in this country. Third, and with apologies to the AARP, insufficient testing of elderly drivers and/or insufficiently low standards for elderly drivers. If you don't know you have to shut the car off or cannot hear that an engine is running, perhaps you shouldn't be driving. Fourth, re-examining keyless start systems.
Stand out in the parking lot | 2017 Lexus NX 200t F-Sport Quick Spin
Wed, May 31 2017Timing is a funny thing. As I'm writing this mini-review of the Lexus NX 200t, which has been out for several years and used the brand's first turbocharged engine in America, a newly-revised NX just debuted in China. It doesn't have much bearing on my thoughts about the CUV, but it does go to show the growing importance of China for luxury manufacturers like Lexus and Mercedes-Benz. It's been almost three years since we drove the NX 200t for the first time. Back then, our reviewer was impressed by how different it felt from the RAV4 – the two vehicles share a platform, although Lexus claims 90 percent of the NX is distinct from its Toyota cousin. The biggest differences are styling and, more important, the powertrain. With turbocharging going very mainstream in the intervening years, how does the NX200t hold up? I spent a week in an F-Sport trim in a striking orange color to find out for myself. It took a little while for me to warm up to the powertrain. Even in Sport mode, things seem ... well, they seem a little sluggish. The NX has a funny way of expressing its slightly more than adequate horsepower and torque by requiring a hefty punt to spool up the turbo and get things moving along. Normal drive mode could pass for an economy setting. Back in 2014 when this thing was new, it was clear that the RAV4 connection doesn't matter as much as we, as enthusiasts, would think. It's easy for us to fixate on what vehicle is related to what platform, and which way its engine sits. And that's good! We need to do that. But Lexus determined that they didn't need it to sit on a rear-drive sportscar platform because of course not! It's a little crossover. From a packaging standpoint, that'd be idiotic, and from a marketing standpoint likewise. Not to say that buyers of the NX 200t aren't discerning. But I think their priorities and desires probably align with what Lexus decided to produce. This is good and proper. Also, it beats the heck out of a RAV4. I love the seats. Every body is different, sure. But these seats are completely spot on for what my body needs. They're sporty-looking without resorting to immense bolsters that pinch the torso, and they're very supportive. I wouldn't say they're the best seat's I've tried out of the hundreds of cars I've driven over the years, but they're probably the best small crossover seats I can recall. To put it in different terms, on some long road trips you need to stop just to stretch – that's not the case here.
Lexus LC Coupe and Convertible add a bevy of official TRD parts
Fri, Jun 19 2020TRD stands for Toyota Racing Development, but that doesn’t stop the performance division from developing parts for Lexus products, too. One of those Lexus products it just released a set of performance parts for is the LC 500. The two-door coupe is our favorite Lexus for sale right now because of its excellent driving dynamics and stunning looks, so adding more performance is a good thing, right? WeÂ’ll stop short of saying itÂ’s a great thing for appearances in this particular instance. The parts shown here tend to muss up and clutter the LC's otherwise gorgeous design. That large rear wing, aero cowling above the rear seats and aero mirror cover all notch the aggressiveness up a level, but it makes the styling look a bit messier in photos. TRD does claim real performance gains from the parts, though. The modified side skirts reduce the amount of wind flowing to the rear tires, which makes the car slipperier through the air — TRD also claims a benefit in fuel economy and reduced wind noise. There are three new wheel designs, all offering a reduction in weight over the stock wheels and an improvement in rigidity. The wheels pictured on the car are the Lunanium Gun Metallic option. TRD says the giant aero cowl reduces wind noise in the cabin for the LC Convertible, and the big rear wing improves vehicle stability. Other available parts include a front spoiler (adds downforce, lowers front clearance by 30 mm), rear diffuser (adds moderate downforce, says TRD), smaller rear spoiler (improves stability at speed), and a “performance damper.” Details are short on this damper, but we can assume itÂ’s slightly stiffer than stock and could offer a noticeable handling improvement. ThereÂ’s a 3-D mini configurator you can play around with on TRDÂ’s site, too. You can only choose between the exterior color, interior color and aero cowl cover, but itÂ’s worth it to see what the mods might look like on your particular LC. Interestingly, the aero cowl sitting above the rear seats can be had in either black or white. Availability of the parts in the U.S. is still unclear, but weÂ’re reaching out to TRD and will update with any news we might hear.  Related video:
