2001 Lexus Is300 on 2040-cars
Fishers, Indiana, United States
Thank you for looking at my auction! I’m selling my 2001 IS300 with no reserve. It has 171,000 miles and will climb slightly as I do drive the car a small amount every day. It is loaded with power windows, power door locks, ac, cruise control, heated leather and suede seats, power sunroof, factory HID headlights, and yellow fog lights. It is an automatic with a manual mode for use with shifters located on the steering wheel. It also has traction control and sport mode. I have the original owner’s manual and 2 sets of keys. Everything works and functions as it should; this car runs and drives really well! Exterior: The
black paint is in really great shape, as it has been repainted at some point.
The rear bumper has some scrapes under the paint, but they are not very severe.
The driver’s side rocker panel has a small dent in the very lower portion that
should be fairly visible in the photos. There are not any major dents or dings
on the exterior and there is no rust whatsoever. The factory headlights have
been repainted to look like JDM lights a shave the fog lights. The front grill
is a TRD replica, but looks very nice and fits very well. There is a small rock
chip in the windshield, but it was repaired a few years ago and hasn't grown or
spread since. There are some small scrapes on the driver’s front corner, but
other than that, they exterior is really awesome! I wash it regularly and
revive a lot of compliments on it. No one believes it’s a 2001! Interior: The
interior is in unbelievable shape; all of the interior features work as they
should. The leather and suede seats show very little wear. There are no tears
in the seats or carpets. The original floor mats are in wonderful shape as
well. The head unit has been replaced with a Pioneer unit that has Bluetooth,
iPod connectivity, and iPhone AppMode for GPS, Pandora, and other apps from
your iPhone. There is a noise-cancelling microphone located to the left of the rear-view mirror and works very well. There aren't any loud rattles or squeaks
and nothing seems to be broken. Drivetrain: The
engine and transmission seem to be in perfect working order. The previous owner
told me he had the major service done around 115,000 miles which should have
included a full fluid “flush-and-fill”, the timing belt, tensioner, water pump,
and thermostat. I can’t verify that this has been done, but I don’t have any
reason to doubt it. It idles nice and smooth and shifts through the gears
swiftly and smoothly. I've changed the oil recently and it doesn't use a drop.
It doesn't leak anything either. There is a check engine light on, and when
checked out at the dealership, they told me it was for the oxygen sensor in
“bank 1”. I never got around to replacing it, but they are about $75 online. It’s
very clean underneath, especially for its age. The wheels are stock, but they
have been painted satin black. The tires are new Bridgestone Blizzaks; the
fronts are 205-45-17 and the rears are 215-45-17. This wasn't on purpose, but
the difference is not visibly noticeable at all. These tires are amazing in bad
weather! I’ll never drive a car through the winter without them again! Again,
thank you for looking at my car! I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere and
it has been a champ in the sub-zero conditions that Indiana has suffered
through this winter. If you have any questions about this car, feel free to let
me know. I’m happy to answer anything I can for you or provide additional
photos. I've done my best to describe this car openly and honestly. It I've left anything out, it wasn't on purpose and I will not be held responsible.
This is a used car and is being sold as-is, where-is. I reserve the right to end the auction early, as I do have it for sale locally as well. Thank you! |

Mazda and Lexus crowned with KBB 5-Year Cost To Own awards
Tue, 12 Feb 2013We report on a lot of awards, some of which are given out based on more solid criteria than others. This one, the Kelley Blue Book 5-Year Cost to Own awards, seems like one that new car shoppers should pay attention to.
The cost of a car goes far beyond what you pay for the actual metal, leather and rubber at the point of purchase. Fuel, insurance, maintenance and repair costs, and the cost of fees from the state and financing will all weigh on your wallet while you own the car. That's not even taking into account the biggest cost: depreciation, or the amount of money you lose based on what your car is worth years from now versus the day you bought it.
KBB tracks these sorts of things, and they've compiled a list of winners for 2013 models. On the brand level, Mazda and Lexus earn the 5-Year Cost to Own award for having the lowest overall projected five-year totals (though, curiously, we note that Mazda and Lexus each had only one segment winner). There are lots of winners for all the various segments, so we'll just pick out a few surprising ones to share and you can view the rest here.
Lexus LF-LC approved for production
Thu, 28 Mar 2013On the sidelines of a press drive for the 2014 Lexus IS, the company's vice president of marketing in the US told Ward's Auto that the honchos in Japan have approved the Lexus LF-LC concept for production. He wouldn't offer any other details on how the luxury coupe might be transformed into a vehicle for the buying masses, and that has led to a bag full of speculation.
The show car was hybrid-powered and rear-wheel drive, a beautifully executed stab by Toyota designers in Newport Beach at redefining Lexus, but even with the concept, the point was to keep it "within reach for premium buyers." The report says the odds are on limited production and higher pricing than Lexus' "mainstream products," and other sites have speculated on what kind of powertrain it might end up in showrooms with.
GT Channel posits that the LF-LC will be the inspiration for a coupe in the Lexus LS price bracket with a choice of either the 4.2-liter V8 or the hybrid powertrain from the LS 600h, further speculating it will be called LC 550 and cost more than $100,000. It then says that there would be another coupe created beneath that one to replace the SC 430. Lexus Enthusiast, however, calls those "warmed-over rumors" and says that the marque probably won't deviate from its engine-capacity-naming scheme - labeling a car with a 4.2-liter V8 an LC 550. Nor does it think Lexus will use the letters LC after the company has trademarked "RC" in the US and Australia.
Lexus boots up 2014 IS configurator
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Throw away those scraps of paper and pull yourself up to a keyboard, as Lexus has launched the online configurator for its all-new 2014 IS sedan. The base price for the entry-level IS 250 RWD is $36,845 (all listed prices include the $895 delivery fee), delivering a 2.5-liter V6 rated at 204 horsepower that provides enough thrust for a 0-60 sprint in 7.7 seconds. The range-topping IS 350 AWD starts at $42,595, packed with a 3.5-liter V6 rated at 306 horsepower that will deliver 60 mph in just 5.7 seconds.
After choosing an engine and driveline, the configurator will offer eight exterior colors and five interior upholstery shades (some combinations, such as selecting Obsidian over Rioja Red NuLuxe leather, require upgrades such as the F Sport package). Consumers are then offered four different bundled option packages as enhancements. The least expensive is Navigation ($4,670), followed by the aforementioned F Sport ($5,800) and a choice between two luxury packages ($7,195) with light or dark wood trim.
Last to come are the accessories and dealer-installed options such as remote engine start, glass-break sensor, wheel locks and a cargo net. Go crazy with your choices, as we did, and the price will exceed $50,000. Head over to the Lexus IS configurator, and check it out for yourself.
