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 unveils first EV, the UX 300e

Fri, Nov 22 2019

UPDATE: A Lexus spokesperson has providedÂ Autoblog with the following statement concerning U.S. sales of the UX 300e: "The UX 300e has been designed specifically for the Chinese and European markets. The U.S. will not offer the UX 300e, however, we have committed to developing a dedicated BEV that is purpose-built to offer the benefits and features that U.S. luxury buyers demand." The original article continues below. Lexus has unveiled its first fully electric vehicle and — surprise Â— itÂ’s a crossover. The Lexus UX 300e is seeing its public debut in China, at the Guangzhou International Automobile Exhibition. Lexus tipped the world off to its next step in the luxury automakerÂ’s Â“Lexus ElectrifiedÂ” campaign with a trademark filing. Now it has followed through, in what appears to be a trend, as more and more automakers enter the EV arena with formats that are hot as all heck right now: crossovers. We only have a few specifications so far, but theyÂ’re interesting. The Lexus UX 300e has a 54.3-kWh lithium-ion battery pack that provides an estimated 248 miles of driving range based on the very generous and arguably outdated NEDC driving cycle Â— this would indubitably be rated much lower if tested by the EPA. The electric motor, located up front, is capable of a peak 201 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque. It has a DC fast charging capability of 50 kW, which lags behind a lot of what weÂ’re seeing nowadays (for instance, the Kia Niro EV is capable of 100 kW, and the Audi E-Tron can do 150 kW). LexusÂ’ press release doesnÂ’t specify the charging standard, but that 50-kW capacity corresponds with the current maximum speed of the CHAdeMo charging standard. The UX 300e promises a comfortable but exciting drive experience with a dual focus on NVH and driving dynamics. Drivers can control the experience with a number of driving modes, as well as paddle Â“shiftersÂ” that adjust the level of regen feel form the electric motor/generator. As for the sonic experience, Lexus says it has an Â“Active Sound Control (ASC)Â” feature that Â“transmits natural ambient sounds to allow for a greater understanding of driving conditions, and provides a natural feeling for the cabin's occupants.Â” We have no word on whether the UX EV will make its way to the U.S. Lexus says it will go on sale in China and Europe next year, with a Japan introduction in 2021. Again, this is just a first step, and weÂ’ll be curious to see what plans Lexus has for EVs here in the States.

Lexus LC F prototype caught testing

Mon, Jul 23 2018

The rumored Lexus LC F seems to be real based on these spy shots. A prototype was spied testing in Europe, and it shows a number of significant alterations from the regular LC 500 and LC 500h grand touring luxury coupes. In particularly, they seem to show a bit more of everything for the sporty edition. The nose bears some of the biggest changes compared with the standard models. While the center grille is mostly untouched, the outboard grilles have been cut wide open for more airflow. We can see the reason why, as there are heat exchangers in each of them. A particularly large one resides in the grille on the left side of the car. We can also see that the fenders have been extended over the wheel arches. Whether this is something to throw off observers or a final addition has yet to be seen, since the wheels and tires fitted to this car don't fill the added width, and the rear fenders aren't any wider, either. While nothing has changed to the sides of the car, we can spot the LC F's new brakes. They feature cross-drilled rotors and some beefy calipers. Moving around the back, we see that the LC F will get the signature stacked exhaust seen on the RC F and old IS F. Underneath, the tips will be matched with a wide diffuser that looks rather functional. Based on a previous report, it sounds like the LC F is still a couple of years away. Not much is known about the car, but it's safe to say it will make more than the 467 horsepower of the LC 500's naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. It could possibly have a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 or some sort of hybrid powertrain. To play in the same arena as some of the luxury performance competition, it will probably need at least 550 horsepower. Also expect it to cost significantly more than the LC 500h's low-$90,000s price tag. Related Video:
