Default WTB: super clean and babied LS400

Anyone want to sell their 2005 LS430 ?

Looking for an LS that is well above average in every way and I am prepared to pay a premium for a top condition car.

I'm in Toronto.

I dont want an LS with lots of major performance modifications.
100% stock is fine.

Let me know.
Thanks

I've got a 98 that meets your demanding specs. Don't think you'll find one of this generation in better condition.
Currently, car has 56,450 miles...

Understood. Small world... I actually sold an MR2 turbo to a young fella from Toronto 4 or 5 years back.

Good luck in your search. You can't go wrong with a low mileage LS in this range.

I found out today that Toronto Lexus dealers don't try to retail them because they are "too old " If they get a clean low milage one in on trade, they move it through a wholesaler.

I'll keep bumping this for now and keep checking autotrader, but not much there except very high milage beat up ones.

Not to be rude but you should've jumped on that low mileage LS in Pa.. My parents had one just like that '98, truly an awesome ride, smoother ride than my '05 LS430 Ultra.

That car was sweet, but too far way.
I am sure whoever got it will be very happy.
It sold for only $12,000 ... so it was not too $$

bump,

Still looking. I drove a few more, a 2001 and a 2002, but they were not owned by enthusiasts, so they were not up to my high standards.

Decised I want to get a 2004 or 2005 without air ride and without navagation ..... anyone in Toronto have one they want to sell ?????
