Okay, regarding oil change...
If u drive less than 10K mile a year, do u still have to change the oil every year or just wait until u get to 10K?

I drive about 7k a year and change my oil every 12 months.

Whichever comes first. If you drive less than 10k miles a year you'll schedule an oil change (by time) a year from the last oil change.

Hey guys, been shopping GS’s 2013-2015 F Sports and haven’t made a decision yet. Actually found a really good deal on one with 100k miles exactly. 2013 GS350 F Sport, one owner, dealership certified for 12k miles, clean carfax and Lexus service history by the book, for 17k.
Do you think this car will go at least 240k? Want to own it at least 9-10 years and drive 15-17k miles a year. I would even like to go to 300k but I know that’s never guaranteed. How would Maintenance be? Expensive?

I did have a problem with my GS350 F Sport but in the end it came out to be a simple wire that came undone preventing my car from starting and nothing at all due to the fault of Lexus in terms of longevity.
My GS300 had to replace some shift solenoids at around 200k and my ES300 has had radiator replaced multiple times. Nothing has completely killed my Lexus cars and all very reasonable to get it back on the road. They carry a little higher repair fee than say Toyota or Honda but it's really not that much more. And honestly the only maintenance I really do is replacing the oil and oil filter myself in my cars and sometimes spark plugs if I am really bored. Maybe I am lucky but I have had really good results with just making sure you change and check oil regularly as the only maintenance even at the exotic car tier.
