I am selling my 96 FZJ80 Lexus LX 450/Toyota Land CruiserNO RESERVE AUCTION! High bid wins------------- Only 151k CarFax certified miles. California car since new. NO rust. Yes, it has the DIFF LOCK option! I bought this LX earlier this year after a long search for a clean, well kept, well maintained 80 series with Diff Locks. I finally found this one pretty close to home just north of Santa Barbara. I am the 5th owner and the title is in name. Was going to keep this one long term but things change. It's ready for a new home. I have sold some very nice Land Cruisers and Toyota's here on eBay with 100% satisfaction. So bid with confidence. It's the champaign color scheme from Lexus with pretty much all the options available in 1996. Running boards, roof rack (I removed the Lexus rack and added Yakima load bars, still have orig rack), tow package, 3rd row seats, Diff Lock, auto climate control, etc. It also has the CDL switch (center diff lock) added. It's been very well maintained with extensive Lexus Dealership records and others. Major items to note included: pesky heater hose replaced, valve cover gasket replaced, front axle rebuild, new distributor cap, spark plugs, plug wires and tube seals. Newer brakes with slotted rotors on all four wheels. Recent service of the AC (blows cold). Just serviced with oil change, filter and full lube. Within the last 2k miles I purchased an Old Man Emu 2.5" medium lift from Spector Off-Road and had it installed at my shop in Santa Barbara. Includes castor correction kit and Emu steering stabilizer. Then I had an alignment done and installed new BFG All-Terrain TA 282/75r16 on the stock Lexus alloys. New center caps (Toyota Logo) installed as well. It rides incredible with this set up and looks great. All in it was well over $3,000 for these upgrades. The interior is almost in perfect condition. The power seats work perfectly. All electronics such as the power windows, locks, HVAC, etc work just as they should. The power button, 2nd gear start and overdrive buttons work perfect. The front, rear and center diff locks all work and engage as they should. The radio, CD player work and sound great. Though the power antenna motor doesn't work and I replaced the aerial with a carbon stub. Looks pretty good The leather is near perfect and original. The only things to note would be a small "cut" or separation of the leather on the drivers seat right side back bolster and a little wear on the top of the steering wheel(I use a nice cover, you'll see in photos) and gear shift lever. Otherwise the interior is close to a 9 out of 10. Non smoking owners and smells like a Lexus. The paint is all original and overall in really great shape. Things to note include some clear coat fade on the top center of the hood and right rear fender flare (pretty minor). The left rear fender flare has a little worse fade, please see in detailed photos. Doesn't really bother me as I like the original paint aspect. All original VIN stickers present. No accident, paint or bodywork history. So overall much less dings and fade than an average Land Cruiser/LX450 of this vintage. I've owned quite a few and this one is on the nicer side by far. It runs, drives, shifts, brakes, etc just as it should. Throws no codes and is a pleasure to drive. It's turn key and needs nothing. This is most likely one of the nicer Land Cruiser/LX 450's on the market. Current California tag until February 2015. Two Lexus keys, owners manual, Lexus OEM floor mats (fronts, center & rear) and few other extra parts included. Have the original Lexus coil springs if you want them. On, the "D" light and the "overdrive" light are bulbs are burned out. As is where is sale. I offer no warranties expressed, written or implied. The Lexus has a clear title in my name. It's located in Santa Barbara, CA at my home. I'll happily pick you up at the Santa Barbara airport or train station and can assist with your transporter. Pre buy inspections are welcomed and encouraged BEFORE the auction ends. Please message me through eBay or for faster response call me at 805-415-2848 with any questions. My name is Patrick.

On Sep-24-14 at 22:24:49 PDT, seller added the following information: Oops!!! Please note that the VIN in the listing at the top is incorrect. The correct VIN is listed on the picture of the clean CarFax. This is a 1996 Lexus not a 1995 Land Cruiser. I sold the land cruiser quite ago and somehow that VIN ended upon the ebay listing (very nice cruiser). The VIN for this Lexus is JT6HJ88J0T0128262. Again I am the 5th owner and it's been a California 80 series since new. Good luck! Patrick
