I am selling this car as is.

I am not a mechanic.  Hopefully you are.

I will try to describe the pros and cons of the car.

Pros:

It runs.

It has cold a/c.

Stereo works, but buzzs a little like there may be a bad ground, I don't know. 

Comes with the 4 tires and rims that are on it.   And the four stock Lexus wheels and tires (but the tires are probably not good, they have been sitting for awhile)

Cons:

It takes awhile to warm up.  Seems to have a little miss.  But you can see where it has been duct taped for the intake and it sucks a little air there; when I hold it tight it seems to run better.

Power steering has a leak, but when you put fluid in, it works.

Gas tank latch is broke.

Has dent on one side as shown in picture.

The little black grill that goes on the front, is in the trunk.

Seats are ripped.

Drivers door does not open from the inside.

Drivers window and passengers window in the front do not go down.

The back two windows work, so you have to reach your hand around to open the door from the outside to get in and out.

Passenger door opens and shuts on both sides.

Trunk opens with the key but not with the button on the inside.

Paint is all peeling.  Not original paint, I think it is Chevrolet blue.

A lot of miles.

 

This car is located in Key Largo, FL, which is South of Miami, approximately 50 miles.  If you have a shop in the Miami area, Homestead, Ft Lauderdale, you don't have far to pick it up.

I have a clear title.

Again, selling this AS IS, FIX OR REPAIR.   Mechanics special.

Cashiers check or cash only.

Please email me with any questions.

Mercedes, Infiniti, Lexus rank tops with mystery shoppers

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

If you want the best experience possible when buying a new car, then you'd better head down to your local Mercedes-Benz, Infiniti, or Lexus showroom. According a mystery shopper study conducted by the Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, those three luxury brands ranked highest among the 33 makes surveyed. The highest scoring mainstream brands included GMC, Hyundai, Kia, and Ford.
The study asked 5,203 mystery shoppers about the tactics used by salespeople during their most recent automotive purchases, and found a few interesting parallels along the way. For example, dealers at Infiniti, Land Rover, and Smart leaned heavily on vehicle walk-arounds with potential customers, while Jaguar, Volvo, and Audi were quick to point out exclusive features.
This study contrasts with a similar study conducted by JD Power in 2012. Its Sales Satisfaction Survey listed Mini as the top scorer, while Pied Piper's mystery shoppers ranked the BMW-owned brand below the industry average. Lexus scored highly on both surveys, as did Infiniti and GMC.

Lexus GS F coming in 2016 with 500 hp

Sat, 06 Sep 2014

The Lexus GS F has been one of those cars that's been rumored and whispered about for years, but has never come to fruition. The last time we spoke of the Lexus-badged BMW M5-killer was in a crop of spy photos, posted one year ago yesterday. So what's behind this latest rekindled round of rumors?
Well, according to Autocar, sources have claimed that the GS F will hit markets in 2016, and that it will make use of a more potent version of the Lexus RC F's 5.0-liter V8 that will sing to the tune of 500 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission from ZF will be included, as will a Torsen limited-slip diff. Taken as a whole, the executive sedan should get to 60 in the mid-four-second range and accelerate to a top speed of 170 miles per hour.
Prices in the UK will start at 80,000 pounds ($130,000 at today's rates, but as we know, translating British prices to American prices is an inexact science), and right away, we run into a big issue.

Toyota develops new pre-collision system with steering assist

Sun, 13 Oct 2013

A number of automakers are working on developing fully autonomous cars, but it looks like the groundwork for such technologies will likely show up first as semi-autonomous systems for both safety and convenience. Following recent announcements from Nissan and Ford in this area, Toyota has now released information for some of its advanced semi-autonomous technologies that could be offered in production cars over the next few years.
On the safety front, Toyota's new pre-collision system with pedestrian-avoidance steering assist is aimed at protecting the folks who aren't in the car. This system combines visual and audible alerts with automatic brake assist and automatic steering. If warnings don't get the driver to slow down, the brake assist kicks in if a collision is very likely, but if that is still not able to avoid the impending collision (and if there is enough room to do so), the car can automatically steer itself around the pedestrian. This sounds most beneficial for last-second dangers such as a person accidently stepping out into the road in front of a car. Toyota hopes to have this technology available to customers by 2015.
The Japanese automaker is also testing a suite of technologies called Automated Highway Driving Assist (AHDA). The key part of this is a new adaptive cruise control system that uses vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications rather than a radar-based system. This cooperative-adaptive cruise control allows vehicles to communicate their acceleration and deceleration data with other cars, which Toyota says this helps to improve fuel efficiency and traffic flow. Also a part of AHDA is the Lane Trace Control feature, which sounds like a next-gen lane keep assist. This system uses cameras, radar and a computer to keep the vehicle in a "smooth driving line" by being able to change steering angle, engine torque and braking force. Toyota says this technology could be in place by the "mid-2010s."
