They make 4.5% from the buyer so I think they are willing to lose 2-2.5% vs losing the sell altogether. Just my thoughts after trying this out: I would try to sell privately before risking an auction. The 4.5% definitely impacts what buyers are willing to bid. The ease of selling on...

Well, it's sold, not for what I wanted but it met the reserve (sold for $27,500, my reserve was $28,000, carsandbids will make up the extra $500). Buyer got a great deal and I'm sort of wishing I just kept it and cancelled my new car order at this point. Live and learn I guess... I'll update...

Thanks!

Auction ends today. This is my first auction, pretty nerve wracking! At least I can give somebody else on here an idea on if it’s worth it to do this or not… Again, let me know if you have any questions, good luck bidding if anyone on here is!

Just wanted to remind anyone interested in my LX that this auction is ending tomorrow at 11:18 am MST. Please let me know if you have any questions. It would be awesome to sell this to someone here!

I couldn't add everything I wanted to in the details section of this auction, here’s some more: - When I first bled the AHC hydraulic fluid (late '20), I noticed excessive air in one of the globes. After research here, I believe it was a ruptured nitrogen precharge, so I replaced all 4 globes...

It wasn’t, I haven’t seen any indications that it needs to be replaced. It did have the valley plate coolant leak that was fixed at my Lexus dealer. I asked them to check the radiator and they said it was good as well.

Selling my LX, just let me know if you have any questions either here on on carsandbids. It is an auction with reserve and I can’t disclose what the reserve is. Hope to get this to another enthusiast! Color is Mercury Metallic, not silver…the website isn’t recognizing that color.

It was the valley plate leaking, it was barely seeping out, but I decided to get it fixed at the dealer…$1350. I have 146,000, the service rep knew exactly what it was when I described where coolant was leaking from.

If you’re AC is cycling from cold to hot, make sure to monitor your engine temp as this will happen automatically if your engine temp runs hot to bring the engine temp down. You would think there would be a warning when this happens but the only indication I received was the needle rising...

Take the wheel off and pop it out from the back. Not really an easy way to get it off without removing the wheel. You can remove the metal ring on the back of the center cap to make it a little easier but be careful not to pull it out where it’s welded bc it’s a weak point and can break.

My best guess is $75 each, I would have to find boxes as well. I’m willing to ship, I just don’t think it’s worth it, but PM if you’re interested still.

Local pickup in Valdosta, GA. The wheels are in great structural shape, just need to be refinished. All of them are losing paint and one has some road rash that can be easily fixed or used as a spare. It looks like the PO used something on the tires that ate through the paint at some point...
