2005 with 63k miles for 23.5I.

There's a second one but it has 71k. Someone should buy it. I would have already but I want an ultra luxury.

i haven't see any good UL lately....................did you see anything? 71K mi. is too much for me. I saw a few none UL that are low mileage under 35K mi. last couple of days.

I haven't seen any UL's myself.
I might just end up picking up an 07 LS460 then.

watch out for 07' valves/springs recall.............................. some dealers didn't do a good job of replacing the valves/springs.

Doesn't look like this one has had the valve springs replaced. is this a free warranty fix even if i don't have warranty?

you can listen for the noise.........it is not as silky smooth like the LS430, and looking for broken plastic that protect the wire harness. Yes it is under factory warranty recall. Some owner opt not to have their car fit if it not broken.

you can read more here on recall: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...placement.html
