Very sorry for your and your wife's loss of her grandmother. Hopefully the car may remind you of many fond memories of her.

This response is several years after initial post but want opinions on best site to sell LS 430. I purchased my 2001 LS 430 a year ago from a dealership for $9,100 +TTL. Car had 57,765 miles and was a Carfax 1 owner in pristine condition will all service records even though car had low mileage! A year later I have 59,085 miles which is why I am looking to sell since I don’t drive it much! I have 2 other cars (Infinit Q50 and RX 350) that I drive more often. Any advice and/or suggestions regarding selling this vehicle??

After a required number of posts one may advertise on Marketplace https://www.clublexus.com/forums/mar...-sale-307.html
Craigslist, Facebook, ebay, and automobile listing sites may work. Some here recommend bringatrailer for exceptional condition low mileage examples. If you attempt to sell it on this forum (which some may infer from your post, you may be) other than in marketplace your posts may be removed....

bringatrailer would probably get you the most money. Other option would be carsandbids.
