2024 LEXUS IS 500

The vehicle is listed with a CERT OF TITLE–SALVAGE TITLE designation, and the auction identifies the primary damage as SIDE. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the SIDE damage classification because extensive damage is present on the right rear side. The salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The right rear quarter panel is extensively crushed and folded around the wheel arch and fuel-filler area, with inner components and openings exposed. The right rear door is creased and deformed along its rear edge. The right rear taillight assembly is absent, and the surrounding body material is broken away. The rear bumper cover is severely cracked, folded, and detached from the right rear corner, leaving components exposed. The right rear body and trunk-corner sheet metal also show extensive crushing and torn, irregular edges. Inside the vehicle, a curtain airbag is visibly deployed and hanging from the left roof-side area above the front and rear side windows. Further inspection and repair would be required to assess hidden structural, restraint-system, electrical, suspension, and mechanical damage. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2024 Lexus IS sedan, trim level 500 F Sport Performance Base, built in Japan at Toyota’s Tahara Plant. It is equipped with a 5.0-liter gasoline V8 engine, engine code 2UR-GSE, producing 472 hp, with rear-wheel drive/4x2 configuration. Factory-listed safety equipment includes front, knee, side, and curtain airbags, as well as ABS, electronic stability control, blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assistance, forward-collision warning, and other driver-assistance systems. Their current condition and operation cannot be determined from the provided findings.
