Just be ready to be given an opinion if you ask for one
I sure hope you didn't buy a home in the past 3 years either...

I think we can all agree that there are just some things you just don't do to a Lexus.

Um I actually bought my 98 GS400 on ebay for $2025, but I took a chance on it. The listing was vague & the car cranked, but wouldnt start after replacing starter. The big one the shyed people away was the mileage the listing said 241k miles. But when it was shipped here. Turns out the intake tuning actuator was off & once we put it on it started right up & the mileage was actually 196k.

The car runs & drive great with no problems. It needs work, but it well worth the money
