Also I bought a used GS300 from NYC and it had a lot of salt rust on the bottom and with the rear brakes.

So, should I see if I can get it looked at?

i would take it and let another body shop and mechanic take a look and just make sure everything looks good and that it doesn't look like its been wrecked. Check the Lexus national service history on the car also. If all checks out and car is clean and looks like it was maintained well then you should be ok...

Just bought a CPO 06 GS300 AWD fully loaded to the max with 64k on the clock and a 4 year 125,000 mile warranty for 27 from a Lexus dealership.

Is that OTD, cause if not I think you paid to much, but congrats!

Doesn't look bad... But definitely gotta change those rims.. Miles are a lil high but I'd say go for it... At the end of the day, it's a Lexus so if u take care of it u can put 300k on it wit no problem.. Our cars run baby!!!! Proud to be a Lexus owner
