In the market for an LS 600hL? How about the first one in the USA!

That’s right! I just happened to browse eBay today and happened to come across the sale of something rare.  What is this car, you may ask? It’s a very rare, 2008 Lexus LS 600hL Launch Edition. This unique LS 600hL (UVF46) was available for sale to Nieman Marcus InCircle program members. There were only 100 available in the USA. All 100 LS 600hL LE’s are identically equipped with a Truffle Mica exterior, Alabaster leather interior with special “Launch Edition” badging found on the center console of the car. Special 19″ chrome wheels, and matching Italian designed luggage set were offered with the package. First offered in 2007 as an ’08 model, the LS 600hL is the first premium luxury hybrid sedan in the world. Sadly, many special and limited edition cars end up on eBay. Remember the Lexus GS 450h Nieman Marcus Limited Edition and the 2008 Lexus IS F Special Build series? Many of those have ended up for resale on the popular online auction site. Looking closely at the original window sticker from the sale, this LS 600hL LE was delivered to JM Lexus in Margate, FL. The original sticker price was $121,000. The auction is being conducted by a third party used car dealer in South Florida.  Of course, we have no affiliation with the dealer or the auction, but we thought it would be interesting enough to talk about and share. 🙂 Good luck to the winning bidder of this rare car.
