Up for auction is my friend's 2001 ES 300. This car has about 211,000 miles on it but the engine only has about 130,000 miles.  The engine was replaced because the prior owner did not change the oil soon enough so the engine started making noise shortly after my friend bought it. I helped him source a engine that only had about 100,000  miles on it. The engine was installed when the car had about 179,000 miles on it. We contracted a Toyota / Lexus technician for installation of the engine. All of the following was performed during the engine replacement:  Replacement of both primary air / fuel ratio sensors, timing belt, water pump, valve cover gaskets, rear main engine oil seal, spark plugs, all fluids and filters. Only genuine Lexus parts were used for this. 


Other recent repairs include:

NEW front and rear brake pads (replaced  on 4/25/2011 @ 191,000 miles)
NEW battery (replaced on 5/04/2012 @ 204,000 miles)
NEW alternator (replaced on 9/14/2012 @ 208,000 miles) - you can see how new it is in one of the pics.
NEW charcoal canister (replaced on 1/30/13 @ 210,000 miles) - check engine light was on so it required replacement
Major Service (performed on 6/06/12 @ 205,000 miles)

All of the above (in italics) were performed at a local Lexus dealer.

The oil pan and transmission pan was just resealed a week ago by a Toyota technician. 

Overall the car is VERY CLEAN with only minor flaws that you would expect for a car of this age. The car does have some minor dings and scratches here and there along with a few scrapes on the rear bumper. The tires have at least 60 % tread life remaining. The car drives tight, smooth and does not leak a drop of oil. The driver exterior mirror has some discoloration on the lens but you can still see everything behind you. Seat heaters are inoperable (probably just needs switches). Car is equipped with a aftermarket Pioneer head unit which has bluetooth, Make no mistake I do not think you will find a cleaner or better car for the money. The interior is VERY clean and keep in mind it hasn't been detailed. Rear seat had a small tear which has been repaired. The car has been a smoke free car for all of it's life (as far as I know). I reserve the right to cancel the auction due to local "word of mouth" advertising. Car is priced fairly in accordance to local KBB value. I priced this ES300 based on a car with 211,000 miles on it but as I mentioned earlier the engine only has 130,000 miles on it with plenty of NEW Lexus OEM parts......no aftermarket discount junk parts were used.

The hoverboard of your dreams is finally here, thanks to Lexus

Wed, Aug 5 2015

Finally. Finally! Anyone who grew up in the 1980s has been waiting for this moment for a long, long time. Since 1989, to be exact, which is when Back to the Future Part II hovered its way into theaters showing Marty-of-the-past riding a newfangled board-without-wheels in a fabricated future. After several teases, Lexus has finally unleashed real, actual footage of its hoverboard in action. As you'll see in the video, the learning curve is steep, even for a professional skateboarder like Ross McGouran. "I've spent 20 years skateboarding, but without friction it feels like I've had to learn a whole new skill, particularly in the stance and balance in order to ride the hoverboard. It's a whole new experience," says the hoverboard test rider. Before we all get too carried away, there are caveats to this real-world hoverboard. First, the technology doesn't work everywhere. According to Lexus, 200 meters of magnetic track was built in Dresden, Germany, and shipped to a specially built "hoverpark" in Barcelona, Spain. Unlike the fictional hoverboard from BTTF, though, Lexus' creation does indeed work on water... assuming there's a properly magnetic surface below the surface. We're sure you've got questions – cryostats, liquid hydrogen and magnets, are the likely answers – but first, you really should watch the video. Then, feel free to check out the full press release down below, but before you get too excited, know that Lexus has said it does not intend to sell a production version of its hoverboard.

Mark Templin, Executive Vice President at Lexus International said: "Embarking on this project, we set out to push the boundaries of technology, design and innovation to make the impossible possible. With this project we call 'SLIDE', we collaborated with partners who share our passion for creating enjoyment out of motion. Even through combining our technology and expertise, we discovered making a hoverboard isn't an easy process.

Lexus readying hot IS F Coupe

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The 2014 Lexus IS sedan has been turning heads and dividing public opinion since we first drove it. Then, as now, we knew that a revamped IS F would be in the offing at some point, but until today we had know idea what form the Lexus would take.
Our first ever batch of 2015 Lexus IS F spy shots has just come across the transom, and the camouflaged coupe - that's right, there are just two doors this time out - is awfully intriguing at first glance. A much more aggressive front end is prominent, as is the slinky roofline that finishes in a pert rear end. The signature IS grille is still in effect here, at least in terms of the shape, and while the headlamps are covered up, we'd expect some variation of the slash-like units on the 2014 IS.
Hinting at the car's performance intentions are large slotted brake rotors with significantly sized calipers, all tucked in behind dark-finish wheels. Quad exhaust tips and a retractable spoiler can be seen at the back of the car.

Growing demand could bring more body-on-frame off-roaders to the Lexus range

Wed, Jan 13 2021

Car-based crossovers are outselling truck-derived SUVs by a wide margin, but Lexus still sees a strong demand for models that offer true off-road capability. It hinted that it could soon increase its presence in this segment. Toyota's luxury division entered 2021 with two body-on-frame SUVs in its range: the Land Cruiser-based LX (pictured) and the smaller, more affordable GX. Neither is a high-volume model, but both fared shockingly well in 2020. LX sales in the United States fell by 4.4% to 4,512 units, which is a great result in a year when double-digit declines were common, and GX sales increased by 9.9% to 28,519 units. Clearly, off-roaders are in demand. "What we have seen at Toyota is that there's so much of an appetite for [off-roading] that I see that [moving into] the Lexus brand as well. There is an appetite, a customer desire, a customer push to see all brands giving them more options. I think it would be silly for Lexus not to travel down that path," explained Jack Hollis, the head of automotive operations for Toyota's North American division, in an interview with Automotive News. He added that his team has identified a "white space" in the Lexus range that could be filled with an additional body-on-frame off-roader. He didn't reveal precisely what he has in mind, but there are a few possibilities we can rule out. We know Toyota is wrapping up the development of the next-generation Land Cruiser, even if the SUV might not be sold in America, and seeing a next-generation LX seems like a given, but we don't think that's what Hollis was referring to. Moving into the space above the LX with an even bigger truck is highly unlikely. Similarly, the idea of a Lexus-badged SUV aimed at the Jeep Wrangler and the Ford Bronco is neat but unrealistic. Ford's hotly-anticipated born-again off-roader has captured the attention of executives, however. "Holy cow! They sold out that thing, and I think there's a strong market out there for authentic off-road chops and credibility. We're seeing that with [the Toyota] 4Runner as well. I don't think it's any secret that [the 4Runner] is not all that new, but it continues to set records, and it continues to grow volume," pointed out Lexus brand head Andrew Gilleland in a separate interview with Automotive News. Could we see a Lexus-specific version of the 4Runner? We certainly wouldn't rule it out, especially because making an upmarket variant of the SUV would help Toyota leverage the benefits of economies of scale.
