Default '10 GS460, 11K miles in Newport Beach CA for $32K

This isn't mine, I saw it pop up on AutoTrader the other day and waited for the photo before posting here.

Let's just say that I didn't pay much less than this for my '11 GS460 with ~60K miles on it, so this thing is a screaming deal.

So for any of you sitting out there considering a GS460, and you don't mind silver, you might want to jump on this one. This is likely the lowest-miles GS460 in the entire country.

I'd be all set for many years with that. That would tie me down till the GSF eventually comes down to that price. I'm fine with my mint condition, paid off 07 GS350 with 85K miles in grey and black. No car note for me.

I considered the GS-F before buying my GS460, I can't do that grill. The local dealer has two of them, I sat in one this weekend. The seats are a pain to get into and out of, they're almost too firm.

Honestly, I love my GS460 and can't ever see buying the current generation of GS-F.

There's a gentleman on here who posted not too long ago about his 2008 GS460 with 4k miles on it. Crazy!


Nice 2010, though. Strange seeing it spoiler-less; I assume it would be an easy addition.

I looked at the pictures from newport lexus website. The seats look beat up, especially the rears. I expected better for a car with only 11k mile.

Nice spotting that! This car might have an odometer rolled back, those seats look like they have 80-100k miles

Looks nice! Definitely looks a bit naked without the spoiler though. Seems there are tons of low-mile GS460s out there. Like ThomasGS4 mentioned, there was a guy with a black 460 that only had 4k miles, and I got mine with only 16k on it 2 years ago. Makes me feel guilty for driving it daily..... jk

And here I am with 146k on mine, no issues at all! I'd be tempted to get another low mileage one to replace this one day. Too bad they didn't carry over the 460 to the 4th gen.

eh.. you guys look at the production numbers of the GS460? most were made in 2008. in 2010 these were unicorns, insanely low numbers were produced. there are more LF-As out there than 2010 GS460s. someone should jump on this because these cars are not getting any newer, and the chances of finding another one like that are pretty slim.

Definitely rare, not LFA rare, but rare

Lexus built 500 LFA's, they built around 100 2010-2011 GS460's. No big surprise there, as the car went special-order-only after 2008.

Rare != valuable, in fact in the case of the GS460 it kinda hurts it. It costs me more to insure my GS than my S2000 or FJ Cruiser, and both of those drive around or over mountains.

I only ever considered a 2010+ when I was looking for mine. I don't want the tape deck, the navi gets an upgrade and the 2010+ are the only ones that let you stream bluetooth audio from your phone. I watched the entire US market for 7 months and the most I ever saw for sale at one time was 5.

Oh, it was just '10. Yeah, definitely more rare than an LFA. I, for some reason, missed '10 part and thought they meant all GS460 years

It'd definitely be worth getting and throwing into safe storage for years. Heck, there are a lot of cars from the 80s and 90s that have people scratching their heads and wishing they stored since they're worth big bucks nowadays. I can see the '08 being worth a fair amount one day, but nothing like the '10-'11... So, I'll continue to drive my '08 daily
