If a cat can have nine lives, then certainly your favorite car can have two! Like our feline friends, some cars are worthy of more than one life and thanks to a resourceful body shop owner, this Lexus ES300 was blessed with a second. Last year, this Lexus IS300 sustained collision damage which the insurance company estimated (retail) cost of repairs to exceed 75% of its value; i.e. a Total Loss. Destined for the chopping block, the body shop owner carefully evaluated the car and found it had NO FRAME DAMAGE. This combined with his wholesale connections for parts and in-house labor made it a worthwhile project to become a nice second vehicle for his family. Amazingly, this is a complete list of all that was needed to get this Lexus fully repaired and back on the road: · Replaced Right Front Fender & Liner · Replaced Right Front Apron · Replaced Right Front Headlight · Replaced Right Front Side Marker · Replaced Right Front Fog Light · Repaired Fight Front Door · Replaced Right Front Wheel/Tire · Replaced Right Front Control Arm · Replace Right Front ABS Sensor · NO FRAME DAMAGE · Repaired Areas Refinished in 2-Stage, Acrylic · Color-Sanded & Buffed to a Fine Finish · New Dent in Rear Bumper Since the owner planned to keep the car for his family (not to flip) the repair work was performed to the highest standards. And since all the repairs were made, the owner’s family has enjoyed this car with absolutely zero issues. Now, for the first time, it is being offered for auction here on eBay Motors with No Reserve Price. Please note; Cars2K is a CA licensed and bonded, eBay trading assistant listing this Acura IS300 for the private owner. · We are not making warranties as to this car’s fitness or originality. · We simply photographed and described it to the best of our ability. · Pre-bid inspections are welcome. Post bid inspections ARE NOT! · Please respect eBay’s rules for the auction’s stability! This fully equipped Lexus is finished in Millennium Silver Metallic with Leather interior. The mature owner has treated it like his one and only child. Let’s take a closer look now. Exterior: As evidenced in these detailed photos, what lies beyond the exceptional repairs made to the sparkling exterior speaks volumes about the loving care this car has always received and underscores its Southern California providence. Surveying the laser straight panels and reference quality gaps, we marvel at the quality of this repair. With the exception of a small (new) dent in the rear bumper and a few small chips, scuffs and scratches, the finish is still sparkles and shines like new. As you can see, everything looks factory straight. The 4 nearly new Radial Tires ride on 17” factory alloys which still display amazing detail. Speaking of detail, let us stress how straight the body is, how glossy the paint: if you wouldn't know differently, you'd think to be looking at a 7-month old, not an 7-year old car. This one is that clean! Engine & Mechanical: Please study the following photos carefully as they clearly show the repairs made to the front passenger side. Other than this area, this engine compartment is 100% Factory Original; right down to the engine, its ancillaries, decals and markings. Beyond routine tune-ups & oil changes, thousands of dollars were invested into preventative maintenance. No wear item has been left unattended; As a result, this IS300 is mechanically as strong as it is cosmetically. Yes, any Lexus can be a very tough and reliable automobile with a bit of preventative maintenance! We'll inspect the interior next, shall we? Lightly used and never smoked in, the original leather interior still looks and feels great. The SPORTDESIGN EDITION (Black Leather Interior) includes Full Leather Trim Seats with Piping and Heated Driver and Passenger Seats 8-Way Power Adjustable Diver & Passenger Seats A full array of instruments include Navigation with Compass & Electrochromic Inside Rearview Mirror, and Lexus Homelink Universal Transceiver The One Touch Moon Roof glides open & closed perfectly The AM/FM audio system with in-dash CD player guarantees pleasurable audio even when traveling at speeds well above the double nickel. 4 included floor mats have preserved the carpet which is 100% wear free and spotless. Let’s look inside the trunk. Even the original window sticker (with $36,401 price tag) and both original remote keys are included. In short, everything looks, smells, feels and operates as if the car was delivered yesterday, not 7 years ago. Let’s inspect underneath. As you can see, everything looks straight and true. No undercoating to hide anything down here; just an original, virginal undercarriage. Please see photo below below of replaced right front control arm assembly. Drivability: This Lexus runs and drives like a brand new car. In any climate, the 3.0-liter, inline six-cylinder engine is smooth and powerful, producing 215 horsepower. Its five-speed transmission shifts automatically or manually via buttons on the steering wheel. The engine starts every time, idles, revs and pulls effortlessly without unusual noises or hesitation and accelerates strong and smooth leaving no smoke in your rear-view mirror. Warmed up, the oil pressure and temperature remains absolutely stable, with no hint of overheating even after extended runs. Steering is precise and the automatic transmission shifts seamlessly. The brakes anchor the truck securely, in a straight line and without any hint of fading. With newer tires; handling and braking are superb with no rattles, shakes, shimmies or pulls. All in all, this Lexux is 100% mechanically sound and has a solid ride. Despite its age and miles, it is perfectly reliable and ready to be driven anywhere, even across the Country, if that's where you live. Pound for pound, the Lexus IS300is among the finest, most reliable cars ever made. Finally, at an original MSRP of $36,400, this ‘04 IS300 has reached the bottom-end of the depreciation curve; a perfect time to buy. Being such a clean example, this is a remarkable value that can easily serve as a reliable daily driver. To state it succinctly: This Lexus will deliver on its promise!
