This is an interesting build. Doesn't even appear on the configurator:

This is the 2019 GS F 10th anniversary Special Edition. Only 100 sold in the US.

Thanks for the info. I'm digging the interior color/scheme.

I noticed that it has heated steering wheel but none of the 2017s or 2018s even show it. Is that a new 2019 feature?

Hello all. I am the proud owner of a 2017 GS F I just picked up yesterday. From looking at prices other people have been paying here in the forum I am pretty confident I received a great deal. I also was bought the exact color scheme I wanted which is black with the red interior.
I negotiated the dealership to 62K even with only 4100 miles on the car and I traded in my 2014 LS460 F Sport so I saved some on the taxes. I bought the car from a Toyota dealership so I wasn't abel to get the extended Lexus certified warranty, but small price to pay for the deal I received. On that note if anyone knows a great deal on an extended warranty LMK.

Thats an insanely good price. Most cars I am seeing (which are almost identical to yours, '17 with ~4K miles) are around 70 and dealers arent budging. How did you manage go the car that low? What was your strategy?

Thanks

I'm seeing a few similar mile L-Certified '17's near that price point, I'm sure you could get either of these close to $62k.

Of the 3 you posted: the Atomic/Red with 800 miles would be my first choice, not sure why someone would lease it for 11 days and then have it be sold at auction though (according to the CARFAX), plus its close to you.

Just an FYI, the USB/Grey car is right down the street from me, it does have PPF film on the front of the car but the paint has lots of halos, love marks, and light scratches in it, and a few scuffs. I know I am a stickler on paint, but for me it is too beat up for such a low mile car.

If you can wait, I'm sure by years end there will be better deals to be had and more selection of pre-owned '17's coming to market. Happy Hunting!

Here's another car I am contemplating watching

Thanks for letting me know on that blue one from Shottenkirk. Sorry to hear its dinged up, a shame really since the color combination is awesome and apparently isn't made any more, at least it saves me the trip.

I think maybe because the car was at a small Toyota dealership in a small town in Texas???? It was by far the most expensive car on their lot so selling it at 62K I am assuming was a huge deal for them. It was only an 1.5 hr drive from my house so I was lucky there as well. I live in Dallas and none of the dealerships here was budging on their prices.

My plan is to take printouts of all these cars, show the prices to Park Place and Sewell, and go from there. If they say no thanks, then I'll thank them for their time and tell them I am purchasing the car in California, and also losing on a 15K cash down payment plus the value of my trade in (which should net me around 14K total tradein allowance).

I have heard that Park place (especially) are d*cks, I'll see if that is the case.

Park Place is who I was dealing with originally. Great salesman Adam, but they will not budge on the price of the car. They have that grey one with red interior there at $68,800 which at the time I thought was a good deal. They also low balled me on my trade in that pissed me off as well. I got 4K more on trade in from the Toyota dealership and 7K cheaper on the car with a better color combo. I saved 11K for 3hr round trip drive, no brainer! I did the deal with the bank and dealership on the drive there so my paperwork was ready when I arrived. Easiest car buying experience ever! Also I went through a local credit union and I was able to get 1.99 APR. You should try Credit Union of Texas in Plano if you need financing and ask for Bernie Castella, he was awesome.

The last one on your list is the one I bought yesterday. Great deal just not Lcertified. I sent the vin to my Lexus service guy and it came up clean so went with it. Also it has perfect after market rims pretty much what I would have put on myself, tinted windows, and the nice rubber mats. I figured that saved me $4000-$5000

You bastard!

:P

It looked like a great car, enjoy it

Thanks for the tip, appreciate it.
