yea, first place id look.
the thing is i could prolly find u a car w/those options in one of those colors but finding a low mileage example of something as utilitarian (it isnt really a 911) as an LS thats normally driven daily is EXTREMELY difficult.
if you were willing to budge on the mileage i could prolly find u an asst. of cars. and having bought a 2000 LS myself i can tell u anything <50k will be mint as long as its been maintained and u know what to look for in an LS.
also wanna point out that Lexus is no longer keeping LS400s in its CPO inventory, even tho individual dealers MAY give LS4s w/<50k the same warranty.

The mileage on the LS series should be your last concern.
It should make no difference as long as the service has been kept up to date according to manufacture specs. If you purchase a 2000 LS today with 70K on the odometer I assure you it'll be running perfectly like the day it came off the assembly line in 6-7 years regardless of how many miles you drive yearly as long as you service it properly.
They run forever.

Yea..I know, but let's be realistic...to find a 2000 with that low of mileage is gonna be like finding a needle in a haystack.
I was just throwin it out there...
And an LS is NOT an LX, they're a newer model Lexus and still have some bugs to get rid of...the LS has been around since the beginning of Lexus time, and they've pretty much got rid of MOST the bugs. So, a 2000 with 70k is basically BRAND NEW...but do you, man...Good luck in finding one, I'll keep searching for you.
