2005 Lexus Sc430 Base Convertible 2-door 4.3l on 2040-cars
Belmar, New Jersey, United States
|
Pristine Lexus SC430 hard-top convertible with leather interior. The exterior color is a gorgeous very dark forest green ("Midnight Pine"), even though it may look blue from the reflections of the sky in the photos. The interior leather is a very classy and clean ivory color ("Ecru").
Meticulously maintained and garaged, senior-owned and lightly driven, mostly to the golf course and back, everything on this car is in excellent working condition. Some small surface repairs have been professionally done to the leather and body, but you will not even be able to tell. Tires have plenty of tread left, but do show some normal wear. The powerful, responsive engine, side-opening doors and smooth, rapid action of the convertible hard-top along with the luxurious classic trim details make for a truly sophisticated driving experience. The SC430 was the first Lexus convertible, first introduced in 2001. By the time this 2005 model was produced, Lexus was earning #1 ratings in the luxury car industry for customer loyalty and satisfaction from J.D. Powers and Consumer Reports, and their cars were rated higher for quality and driving experience than more expensive BMW and Mercedes models. The factory that produced this car in 2005 was awarded #1 in the world the same year for quality control and production engineering. This historic car is a true classic certain to appreciate in value if well kept, and one of the finest luxury vehicles available in this price range. The blue book private sale value on this car is, very conservatively rating it as "good" condition, is $19,500. We are offering it at $17,900 to make the sale. Serious offers welcome. |

Toyota and Lexus recalling 235,000 hybrid CUVs and sedans over separate issues
Wed, 04 Sep 2013When it rains, it pours. Toyota has announced a pair of separate but voluntary North America recalls covering approximately 235,000 vehicles built between 2006 and 2011. The larger of the two recalls targets Toyota's hybridized crossovers, the Lexus RX400h and Toyota Highlander Hybrid. 133,000 units, including 2006-2010 Highlander and 2006-2008 RX crossovers are covered in the campaign. The other recall affects 102,000 IS350 sedans, IS350C convertibles and GS350 sedans built between 2006 and 2011.
With the CUVs, the faults in the parallel circuits of the transistors can cause heat damage in the inverter assembly, triggering an abundance of warning lamps and sending the vehicle into limp mode. The Lexus sedans are being recalled due to loose bolts on the variable valve timing controller. Detected by unusual underhood sounds on startup, the issue can cause the engine to stop while driving. The inverter issue is also triggering similar recalls in Japan and Europe.
At the moment, it's unclear if any of these issues have caused any crashes or injuries. Toyota says it plans to notify owners of the recall via snail mail. Additional information for owners can be found on the recall sites for Toyota and Lexus or by calling Toyota's customer service line, at 1-800-331-4331.

2014 Lexus IS 250 AWD F Sport
Fri, 08 Nov 2013"Ooh, this looks fun!" my otherwise car-ignorant friend said as we walked up to the 2014 Lexus IS 250 F Sport. And yeah, it does look fun. In fact, despite my initial strong negative reaction to the design, I've really warmed up to this new IS, especially with the flashier F Sport package found on this test car (unique front fascia, 18-inch dark alloy wheels and appropriate badging). Even though that rear end still looks a bit Droopy Dog to me (stop frowning, Lexus), the IS is sharp, though I'm not entirely sure that such a bold design will age well.
"Looks can be deceiving," I told my friend, and we hit the road... slowly. You see, despite looking like a fresh, modern sport sedan, the IS 250 still uses what is, quite frankly, a dog of an engine. And that, combined with dynamics that are just so-so at best, makes for a sedan that's all show and no go. Say hello to Jennifer Slowpez.

Lexus to open stores with branded accessories [w/video]
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Trying to build a boutique buying atmosphere with a large-volume premium brand isn't easy, but Lexus is attempting to do just that by introducing its new Intersect By Lexus dealership experience. This aspect of Lexus retailing has nothing to do with cars and everything to do with luxury lifestyle accessories. Intersect By Lexus is effectively an all-in-one shopping destination for high-quality, hand-crafted designer products, many of them created specifically for the marque, right down to their "Crafted for Lexus" branding.
The first Intersect By Lexus store will open at the end of this month in Tokyo, with other stores planned for New York and Dubai. Going over the first store's initial product list, it seems that each store will offer wares that reflect its location. Some of the products available at Intersect By Lexus Tokyo include a $400 minimalist LED desk light, hand-sewn $286 tablet cover and a $133 drip coffeemaker and cup set handmade from the ash of Japan's Sakurajima volcano. Scroll down for a short video showing how some of these products were made.
