Had no idea, thanks for confirming!

I may continue to wait. Two months ago I saw a 2016 GS350 f-sport in Long Island, 17k miles, and Mark Levinson audio. The out of door price was only 31000 ( PA 6%). I think mark levinson+triple led may be a better option.

so cheaper and less miles than this one? wow. surprising. was it a new car dealer?

msdmsdmsd

Yeah, Lexus of Smithtown. It was a one-owner car. So I'd say for this white one, if the OTD price is below than 30k, and then it should be a good deal.

ML would be a requirement for me, now that I've got it and found ways to tune up the sound (by removing extraneous vibration), compared against cars I've built for audiophile setups, it is up there in SQ. Not sure about the triple beams, I guess it would be nice but I've never said, gee I wish these awesome lights were better! At least when aimed properly. I do think the AVS is novel but the lux version has it as well as F-Sport at least for older models. That said, the spotless interior is inviting in both color and condition

Welcome! As others have said be careful with carfax. I purchased mine 2 years ago and thought I found a good one with "clean" carfax. Took it to a mechanic and they determine it had been in a major accident based on paint analysis they did and they also found incorrect parts had been used. Fortunately it was within the return period with the dealership and they took it back. I then found a CPO at a Lexus Dealership and absolutely love it! Good Luck!

Cream puff was so much better with all the dealer services documented and less miles.
I would not touch this or the other one above.
They are both the same or more than the cream puff in price, more miles and unverified oil changes on this one with no dealer service on either. (only extra on these is ML).
This one also shows that it failed emissions once.
No thank you.

It looks like this car has a bent wheel and damaged sidewall, along with another wheel that has curb rash. I rather doubt this car has been treated with much care.

I personally wouldn't buy anything within 500 miles of NYC...

@lookinforalexus - Take a look at what Carvana has. I'm aware of a number of people that bought vehicles from Carvana and they were all very satisfied with their purchase and the process.

msdmsdmsd

it is alittle bit weird that this car failed emissions in 2020., since it was 3-year-old car at that time.
or another one

This one was sold twice at auction so probable abuse, and looks like front drivers side wheel is bent.
Twice the mileage of creampuff and pricer although has ML.
Don't see this as a good deal.

I am a huge GS fan based on the fact that I had 2006, 2008, 2011, and 2014 F Sport. As long as you stay away from 06 GS300 and 2013 GS350, you should be fine. I absolutely enjoyed the comfort, ride, and the quality. However, I did have the common issue on the driver side handle where the leather gets wrinkly. I sold the last one and to this day, I still miss it.

I had a 2013 GS350 and was the most reliable, problem free car I ever owned. I too am a huge GS fan and enjoyed all the things you mention above.
