I just kept waiting and waiting until the right car came along. This one was a Smokey Granite Mica with black interior, ML, and orange calipers. It also had the dark colored wheels, which look really nice on these. One day it was $57K and the next it was $49K so I jumped on it without hesitation. It also didn't hurt that the first owner is on this forum and I could research the car from that information to see how it was treated.

Best of luck on your search. Took me about 6 weeks to locate my 16' GSF. I personally looked at 5 different GSF's in person before pulling the trigger. And when I did it was a 5 hour drive to pick her up. L certified was an important factor for me personally and during negotiation I was able to get the certification extended for 6 years from this July. I'm now covered for scheduled services and unlimited mileage for those 6 years. That peace of mind (for me) is priceless.

Yes, I saw it the other day and it was already under a pending purchase. I thought it was a bit overpriced given the mileage though. Anyone else have a Blue GS F? Is the color as amazing in person as it appears in photos?

Yea used car prices across the board are bonkers so tough to get a great deal in this market on anything, not just the GSF.

I have a blue GSF and I get compliments on the paint at least once a week in the summer. Mine is a 2016 and I bought it for $49k / 1 owner / 11k miles a year ago. The dealer had two people coming in from out of state to look at it and allegedly someone called while I was doing paperwork. The paint is jacked on the hood and there’s some scraps on the front bumper (the “fangs” of the bumper are notorious for it). I wouldn’t be too picky. Most of these cars a treated poorly so good luck finding a 2016-2018 with less than 30k miles that doesn’t have something to compromise on. I’ve noticed with the discontinuation news the prices are stronger.

Never understood making warranty / CPO a must on these cars. My mechanic has an ISF with almost 200k miles and no issues and no oil burning.

Thanks a lot, I appreciate that information. I am being patient and I will go for the blue for sure now. I am not picky, but with COVID, I am not really in the travelling mood right now, so I will take it a day at a time in my search. Give me more time to save anyways. Less payment, the better

There's a 2018 GS F on craigslist in LA. Looks like a decent deal. 2018 GS F 8,600 miles asking $60k. No affiliation but figured it might be worth checking out.

I also find this GS F on craigslist. But the service history shows the front headlamp were broken due to front end accident.

2018 CPO Atomic Silver/Circuit Red with 33k miles was just listed at SS Lexus in Mesa, AZ for $64k. This is pretty much exactly what I was waiting for but that price is way too high for me. Was looking for under $60k with that kind of mileage. What do you guys think? Fair price?
