In my opinion not worth 20k it's an 08. Yes it has the sun shade and the parking assist sensor so the options and all are cool but it does not have navigation and I think 20k is a good price with navi but without it maybe 19k is fair

But that would be from a lexus dealer thatc. An have it CPO without a CPO warranty I'd say 17k is good for that car

Looked up value on www.edmunds.com: $15,400 trade in value / $19,000 dealer retail. I would offer no more than $17,500 for it.

I agree with Thumper and garsarno. It looks like the dealership has set the price high to negotiate a bit. With no nav $17k-$17.5 seems about right.

Thank you to everyone. I was thinking 17k would be a good deal - good to hear you guys pretty much say the same thing.

Would an extended warranty be available from a lexus dealer if I buy this?

There are a number of posts that recommend a dealer that gives a fair price for the Lexus Platinum Warranty. I know he is in Louisiana somewhere. Get his price on one and you should be able to buy via credit card.

isn't there a age range ? doesn't it have to still be in factory warranty or at least under 5 years 70k ?

^ That is why I was asking, wasn't sure if there was time/mile restriction or where you got it from also matters.

If you call this dealer or Jerry Johnson, at another dealership (you can find him via the Search function) they can let you know of any restrictions.
