My price
If I were you I wouldn't pay more than $7000 for that car and that would be a good price in my books.This is whether it has the adjustable supension or not.
I drove one with that option and that ride was soo smooth I couldn't belive it was a 91.
Wow!

great that you were able to get the service records--but were was the service done? If it's not Jiffy-Lube then I'd say you should go for it for 6K. Did you get a carfax? It won't tell you everything but it does cover some interesting history and things you must avoid.

Sorry, Forgot to mention the price ! Dealer said 6k out the door. I found a guy who used to work for a lexus dealer "service" & he said he would look it over for $50.00 ! Takin' the Lex Thursday 1-10, for the physical. If he says everything is cool,I'am going to take the Lexus Plunge!! By the way, talked to the previous owner again & he told me he never had the trans fluid changed ! (hmmm) Did run the Carfax, came up clean !!
Once again Thanks For The Input !!!

If you buy the car, and when you want to change the trans. fluid always use Toyota trans. type I-V. Change 2 liters at a time until the fluid is clean.
