Well all Im back to say the least but with out a car and thats my delima. I had a nice sc300 black 5spd loved it. Now I want a GS4 and in black or silver with black interior. My hold up is I found an amazing well taken care of black on black GS400 with really high miles (270K) for $5k car has every option from what I can see even navi and is all stock unmolested. So should I travel 1000miles to buy a high mileage gs400 in the color I want or should I buy something with say 100k less miles in a different color where in some cases the interior looks rougher than it should for around $6K? All opinions welcome and I will add that I do paint cars myself so the black on black was more for the interior color.

Truthfully, I'd wait for the right one to come along.

If he has maintenance records and the car runs good, offer him less than 5000 though more like 4.. I sold my old 98 for 5500 with 180,000 clean inside and fairly decent outside

Imma have to kind of agree with both... If he has good maintenance records i would probably offer less money and take it but even tho lexus are good cars 270k miles is alot. You can probably get one under 100k miles for under 10k

I personally think it could be a good deal, if it's super well maintained..

buuut I think 5k is too much, i honestly wouldn't pay more then 4k for it..


I would probably wait a little longer, what's your budget?

Well I have a budget of roughly 7k to spend but im kinda tapped at that also registering the car which would cost me about $200 here in florida.

I think you can do better man, i know a guy on here last year picked up a black on black GS430 with 155k for $7k which was really a amazing deal imo..



just don't jump on something just to get something, if you hold out you'll be much happier..
