We saw a listing for a 2006 Lexus ES with only 26,070 miles on ebay for 22,990. The listing said the car had a clean carfax and was inspected by the dealer. The pictures looked pristine. We paid the full price.

First we noticed that the CD magazine was missing. We probably bought our own magazine back from ebay.

Then we found out that the car would not pass state inspection without replacing all the tires and brake pads. Looked to the inspector as though the dealer replaced the good tires with old ones since some wheel locks were missing and bolts were freshly placed.

The cake topper was the major rear end collision that the car has had. This is obviously visible when the car is raised.

The dealer (Alex) was directly asked when the car was purchased and frankly lied about it. He claimed no accidents using the carfax as evidence. He also stated that the dealer inspection was clean. When confronted over the phone about our findings, he said that I was the liar. Then he said " What's your problem? It has been fixed. You can still drive it." When I spoke with him about the value of the car given a major accident he said that the accident would not affect the value but he only offered to buy back for 18,000.

Be smart. This dealer is not trustworthy. We have just begun to get the word out and our money and lost time back.

Why?

AUTHOR: Ramjet - (U.S.A.)

It never ceases to amaze me that someone would spend this amount of money (or any amount) for a car site unseen on the internet.

Please folks, at least go look at it, but preferably get it checked out  by an independant mechanic. 

You would have been money ahead to buy a plane ticket for both of you.

It's almost hard to feel pity!

read all of them! Keep in mind, Lexus is a division of TOYOTA, correct? Make sure to click on- 'Airbags' when you're at that site and read all of those complaints too!



And be sure to alert your family members & neighbors & co-workers to read all of those complaints if they have a TOYOTA car or truck, okay? And make sure to visit the TOYOTA page of this site and read the TOYOTA Ripoff Reports.



Thank You.
