I don't know which is worse, bidding with money you don't have or needing a loan to buy a 17 year old car. Please make sure you are bidding with real money. Let's try this agein. Hello and thank you for looking at my auction. My name is Joe and I sell vehicles differently than most dealers. Buying your next car or truck through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction. Up for a NO RESERVE auction is a 1999 Lexus LS400 sedan. The LS is the flagship of the Lexus brand. When Toyota first decided to go into the luxury market, they took extraordinary measures to make sure the top shelf car of their new luxury brand was the best it could possibly be. The result is the Lexus LS400. I would rate the exterior of this specific LS400 to be in BELOW AVERAGE CONDITION for its age and mileage. The classic black and gray finish definitely shows its age as there are flaws and imperfections all around. In the photos, the black color hides most of this. Please be aware that this car will not look as good in person as it does in the photos. Realistically, I'd say this car is a 20 footer. While there is no substantial damage on the exterior, the age of the car is evident. There are scratches, faded spots and other blemishes in the finish on virutally every panel. Also, there is a small piece of cladding missing in front of one of the rear wheels. The body lines are nice and straight. The hood, doors and trunk all open and close easily. The hood struts are worn and weak fromage. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The headlights show some hazing from age and the right low beam is out. The finish on the factory alloy wheels isn't really great. The tires show good tread, though. I am trying to be as hard on this car as I can so that you're pleased with it and it meets your expectations. Please take the time to check out each of the photos carefully. I would rate the interior of this LS400 to be in AVERAGE CONDITION for its age and mileage. The door cards show some wear but are acceptable for the age of the car. The carpets also show a little age but are acceptable overall. The dash and headliner are clean. The plastic for the center vents is missing, as can be seen in the photos. The wood trim shows well for its age. The power windows, locks, seats, sunroof and mirrors all still work properly. The leather seats are comfortable and show minimal wear. Both front seats are heated. The factory audio system still sounds good. There is a CD player above the glove box, too. The climate control system is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. The heater works as it should and the air conditioner blows ICE COLD AIR. The rearview mirror is in the trunk...it must have come off and the previous owner saved it. The trunk is spacious and clean. The spare tire is missing. Again, please take your time to check out each of the photos carefully. Mechanically, this LS400 appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 4.0L V8 is the centerpiece of these great cars. It is basically a de-tuned version of a TRD racing engine. With a pedigree like that, it's no wonder you see so many of these with 300K+ miles. The engine starts easily. She runs a little rough sometimes at first start up but smooths right out once you give her a few seconds. The check engine light came on during my road test (bank 1 system too lean was the code). That is most likely something simple like an oxygen sensor or maybe a knock sensor. I didn't notice any leaks and the engine doesn't smoke. Her road manners are good for an older car. The suspension feels tight and well sorted. Steering and braking feel good. The brake pad wear warning is on so you'll probably need new brake pads soon...but the car stops just fine. The engine makes good power and keeps perfect temperature. The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts perfectly with no issues. Out on the highway, she drives nice and straight with no complaints. As I've said before, this isn't the best looking one out there so you probably won't impress anyone with this LS400. However...if you're looking for a sturdy, reliable and comfortable sedan to drive the snot out of and rack up a bunch of miles, this car should do you just fine. I bought this car a while ago and there was some delay on the title on the seller's end so the car got parked while awaiting the title to come. Then, as I am known to do, I completely forgot about this car. I got a call from the auction asking when I was coming for it. I asked them to park it in storage so I could come get it one night...then it got cold and snowed 3' and I forgot about it again. I was going through my files and came across the title to a Lexus that I couldn't find at my warehouse...then I remembered this poor car just sitting and waiting for me to pick it up. I picked her up, put a new battery in her and she fired right up. The bank 1 system lean issue may clear itself up if you just drive it. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.Features & Options 3-Point Rear Seat Belts 4-Wheel Disc Brakes AM/FM Stereo Adjustable Steering Wheel Air Bag Air conditioning Anti-lock brakes Auto-Dimming Rearview Mirror Automatic Transmission Body Side Moldings CD CHANGER CD player Cassette player Center Arm Rest Center Console Climate Control Coolant Temp.

It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value of the vehicle and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.About Us We offer a unique way of purchasing a vehicle. We sell vehicles to the public with NO RESERVE auction pricing. Most of the vehicles we sell are trade-ins at new car dealerships or high volume used dealerships in the area. We hand pick each of our vehicles based on quality, value and desirability. Basically...if I wouldn't drive it myself, I'm not going to try to sell it to you. We give every vehicle a thorough test drive and a visual inspection before it is offered for sale. We strive to provide the most thorough and accurate description as possible within the scope of our ability. Please understand that we are not mechanics. The opinions contained within the written description should not be taken as a professional mechanics' assessment and are not guaranteed. There is additional risk in purchasing a vehicle this way versus buying a vehicle from a retail dealership that has been fully serviced, reconditioned and inspected. We try to mitigate as much of that risk as possible for our customers...just keep in mind that most of our vehicles sell for significantly less than a similar vehicle would be priced on a retail lot. We offer warranties through CARS to help offset as much risk as possible. Please understand that some of the vehicles we sell are disqualified from warranty eligibility due to age, mileage, price or other factors established by CARS. This is out of our control. No amount shall be set aside or discounted if a vehicle does not qualify for coverage under the Terms & Conditions established by CARS. Please see each individual listing for Warranty Eligibility. We have sold over one thousand vehicles on eBay to happy new owners through NO RESERVE auctions and we aim to continue to do so. We are very proud of our feedback score and our many repeat buyers. If you have any questions about how we sell, our policies or questions about a specific vehicle, please send us a message. Vehicles ten model years old and older are exempt from odometer disclosure, this is a federal law. Mileage may be listed as "exempt" or "TMU" on titles for vehicles older than ten model years old. Should we have reason to believe that mileage listed for a vehicle is inaccurate, this will be disclosed within the written description provided for the vehicle regardless of the odometer status listed on the title.Terms & Conditions If you wish to contact us for any reason, the quickest and best way to do so is through eBay's message system, AKA "Ask Seller a Question". Bidding: Please read the entire description and view all pictures before placing a bid. We go out of our way to provide as detailed of a description as possible as well as posting 40-60 photos of each vehicle.

This 1999 Lexus LS400 is being relisted due to a non-paying bidder who "couldn't get the loan". I don't know which is worse, bidding with money you don't have or needing a loan to buy a 17 year old car. Please make sure you are bidding with real money. Let's try this agein.
Hello and thank you for looking at my auction. My name is Joe and I sell vehicles differently than most dealers. Buying your next car or truck through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction.
Up for a NO RESERVE auction is a 1999 Lexus LS400 sedan. The LS is the flagship of the Lexus brand. When Toyota first decided to go into the luxury market, they took extraordinary measures to make sure the top shelf car of their new luxury brand was the best it could possibly be. The result is the Lexus LS400. I would rate the exterior of this specific LS400 to be in BELOW AVERAGE CONDITION for its age and mileage. The classic black and gray finish definitely shows its age as there are flaws and imperfections all around. In the photos, the black color hides most of this. Please be aware that this car will not look as good in person as it does in the photos. Realistically, I'd say this car is a 20 footer. While there is no substantial damage on the exterior, the age of the car is evident. There are scratches, faded spots and other blemishes in the finish on virutally every panel. Also, there is a small piece of cladding missing in front of one of the rear wheels. The body lines are nice and straight. The hood, doors and trunk all open and close easily. The hood struts are worn and weak fromage. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The headlights show some hazing from age and the right low beam is out. The finish on the factory alloy wheels isn't really great. The tires show good tread, though. I am trying to be as hard on this car as I can so that you're pleased with it and it meets your expectations. Please take the time to check out each of the photos carefully.
I would rate the interior of this LS400 to be in AVERAGE CONDITION for its age and mileage. The door cards show some wear but are acceptable for the age of the car. The carpets also show a little age but are acceptable overall. The dash and headliner are clean. The plastic for the center vents is missing, as can be seen in the photos. The wood trim shows well for its age. The power windows, locks, seats, sunroof and mirrors all still work properly. The leather seats are comfortable and show minimal wear. Both front seats are heated. The factory audio system still sounds good. There is a CD player above the glove box, too. The climate control system is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. The heater works as it should and the air conditioner blows ICE COLD AIR. The rearview mirror is in the trunk...it must have come off and the previous owner saved it. The trunk is spacious and clean. The spare tire is missing. Again, please take your time to check out each of the photos carefully.
Mechanically, this LS400 appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 4.0L V8 is the centerpiece of these great cars. It is basically a de-tuned version of a TRD racing engine. With a pedigree like that, it's no wonder you see so many of these with 300K+ miles. The engine starts easily. She runs a little rough sometimes at first start up but smooths right out once you give her a few seconds. The check engine light came on during my road test (bank 1 system too lean was the code). That is most likely something simple like an oxygen sensor or maybe a knock sensor. I didn't notice any leaks and the engine doesn't smoke. Her road manners are good for an older car. The suspension feels tight and well sorted. Steering and braking feel good. The brake pad wear warning is on so you'll probably need new brake pads soon...but the car stops just fine. The engine makes good power and keeps perfect temperature. The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts perfectly with no issues. Out on the highway, she drives nice and straight with no complaints. As I've said before, this isn't the best looking one out there so you probably won't impress anyone with this LS400. However...if you're looking for a sturdy, reliable and comfortable sedan to drive the snot out of and rack up a bunch of miles, this car should do you just fine. I bought this car a while ago and there was some delay on the title on the seller's end so the car got parked while awaiting the title to come. Then, as I am known to do, I completely forgot about this car. I got a call from the auction asking when I was coming for it. I asked them to park it in storage so I could come get it one night...then it got cold and snowed 3' and I forgot about it again. I was going through my files and came across the title to a Lexus that I couldn't find at my warehouse...then I remembered this poor car just sitting and waiting for me to pick it up. I picked her up, put a new battery in her and she fired right up. The bank 1 system lean issue may clear itself up if you just drive it. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty: expressed, written, or implied. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value of the vehicle and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.
If you wish to contact us for any reason, the quickest and best way to do so is through eBay's message system, AKA "Ask Seller a Question".
Bidding:
Please read the entire description and view all pictures before placing a bid. We go out of our way to provide as detailed of a description as possible as well as posting 40-60 photos of each vehicle. If you have any questions feel free to send us an email using the "Ask seller a Question" link so that we can address your question or concern. Please wait to place your bid until you are completely comfortable.
By placing a bid on our auction, you assert that you have read and agree to our Terms & Conditions as well as eBay's Terms & Conditions; you assert that you understand the risks of purchasing a used vehicle; and you assert that you have asked all questions PRIOR to placing your bid. Additionally, you enter into a binding contract to purchase the item they are bidding on should you be the winning bidder.
In the event of any bid retraction or bid change, it shall be the right of the seller to honor or not honor the outcome of the auction. This decision will be made at the sole discretion of the seller and can be made at any time, while the auction is live or after the auction closes. The seller may, at its sole discretion, cancel any bid or restrict any member from bidding on this or future auctions.
Winning Bidders:
Winning bidders are required to contact us via eBay Message within 48 hours of auction close and make arrangements for payment and vehicle pick-up. Please do not leave a voicemail on the office phone.
Full payment is due within 7 day of the auction's end. The prefferred method is to bring cash in person to complete the sale. If you are unable to bring cash in person within seven days or will be having the vehicle shipped, we also accept Certified Checks, USPS Postal Money Orders, and wire transfer.
PayPal is not an accepted payment method. This includes Bill Me Later.
We cannot accept credit cards or personal checks.
Vehicles that are not picked up within 14 days of auction's end will be charged a $10/day storage fee, unless other arrangments are made.
Non-paying Bidders:
We take great pride in our work and are very serious about what we do. Likewise, we expect the people who bid on our auctions to be serious about honoring their bid. If you are the successful bidder for any of our auctions and do not pay for your vehicle within the specified time, an Unpiad Item case willbe opend with eBay. This can severely restirct yur ability to purchse from all eBay sellers. You will be charged a $249 re-listing fee. All unpaid fees will be handed over to a collection agency and pursued to the fullest extent of the law.
Fee and Tax Information: The only fee added by the seller is our $149 fee. This is used to isolate our fixed expenses such as eBay fees, transportation, processing, etc., and is not applied to any costs incurred by the purchaser.
The purchaser is responsible for any and all costs associated with transfer of ownership including, but not limited to: registration, sales tax, tags (including temp or in-transit tags), title transfer, inspection, and transportation expenses.
We are a PennDOT issuing agent and able to complete most tag, registration, and title work, as well as collect sales tax, for Pennsylvania residents.
For out-of-state buyers, PennDOT offers a 30-day temporary tag (aka In-Transit tag). The cost is $49 and the buyer must show a valid driver's license and current proof of insurance. We can issue them at our office.
We offer a unique way of purchasing a vehicle. We sell vehicles to the public with NO RESERVE auction pricing. Most of the vehicles we sell are trade-ins at new car dealerships or high volume used dealerships in the area. We hand pick each of our vehicles based on quality, value and desirability. Basically...if I wouldn't drive it myself, I'm not going to try to sell it to you. We give every vehicle a thorough test drive and a visual inspection before it is offered for sale. We strive to provide the most thorough and accurate description as possible within the scope of our ability. Please understand that we are not mechanics. The opinions contained within the written description should not be taken as a professional mechanics' assessment and are not guaranteed.
There is additional risk in purchasing a vehicle this way versus buying a vehicle from a retail dealership that has been fully serviced, reconditioned and inspected. We try to mitigate as much of that risk as possible for our customers...just keep in mind that most of our vehicles sell for significantly less than a similar vehicle would be priced on a retail lot. We offer warranties through CARS to help offset as much risk as possible. Please understand that some of the vehicles we sell are disqualified from warranty eligibility due to age, mileage, price or other factors established by CARS. This is out of our control. No amount shall be set aside or discounted if a vehicle does not qualify for coverage under the Terms & Conditions established by CARS. Please see each individual listing for Warranty Eligibility.
We have sold over one thousand vehicles on eBay to happy new owners through NO RESERVE auctions and we aim to continue to do so. We are very proud of our feedback score and our many repeat buyers. If you have any questions about how we sell, our policies or questions about a specific vehicle, please send us a message.
Vehicles ten model years old and older are exempt from odometer disclosure, this is a federal law. Mileage may be listed as "exempt" or "TMU" on titles for vehicles older than ten model years old. Should we have reason to believe that mileage listed for a vehicle is inaccurate, this will be disclosed within the written description provided for the vehicle regardless of the odometer status listed on the title.
This auction is a legally binding contract to buy this vehicle. All vehicles are sold as-is unless otherwise specified. I have done my best to accurately describe this vehicle. It is up to the buyer to come see and further inspect the car before the end of the auction.-->
