I purchased a used 2013 GS350 RWD last week for $16k before taxes w/ ~82k miles. Is this a good deal? It's the best I could find in the area.
I looked at a 2015 model for 20k w/ ~50k miles but liked the 6 speed drive better. Coming from an Avalon Hybrid, this is much more engaging to drive and I am really digging the handling (despite the fuel hit). The car does need new tires so Michelin Pilot Sports A/S 3 plus have been ordered through Costco and will be installed in the next week.
I've always had a Toyota in the past and have graduated to the Lexus line and look forward to monitoring the forums and learning from all of you!

None of those features unfortunately. It does have BSM, 18" wheels, illuminated door sills, intuitive park assist and the premium package. I think those are pretty standard on most cars?
I live in Dallas so wouldn't have used the cold weather package often. The lux would have been nice but not many available and couldn't justify the extra expense. ML would have been nice too but I am pretty happy with the stock stereo system compared to previous cars.

The premium package is a great value in GS lineup. I too have a '13 Premium and with the $aved I made subtle mods here and there to make it my own. Congrats on the new ride - post up some pics!

Great deal! As a fellow Texan, I want to say congrats and enjoy the ride. You'll learn plenty about your vehicle if you just read topics in this forum.
Please share pictures of your new whip,

I was going to post my own photos but the dealer still has their professional photos on their website. Here you go ![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Interesting that it has illuminated door sills and fog lights. Here only the very top of the line get fogs, maybe the owner must have optioned both items. Very nice!
