Depends on area of sale, but somewhere between $23,000 and $26,000 wouldn't be bad.

 

I would suggest going on Autotrader or Cars.com and taking a look at other similar mileage LS460s. Pay close attention to private party ads and see what they're selling for. Pick one with similar miles/condition and price yours according. Be patient with it - all of my cars I've listed usually in a month or so at top dollar (according to KBB private party). Your car looks great and very meticulously maintained, I have no doubt you'll get top dollar for yours too. Get all your service hx together, and use those nice pics you posted on here. Presentation is huge IMO when selling private - good pictures with a clean car goes a long way. GLWS!

 

Does the fender bender show on Carfax or Autocheck? If not, that shouldn't detract from the car's value. Have the control arms been replaced? The water pump? The sparkplugs? Unlikely for the latter, I know. If the first two repairs have been done, the car will be more appealing to a knowledgeable buyer.

A car that has been always garaged, never driven in snow, and never smoked in will also be more sellable. How's the wind noise?

The negative factor in pricing you have no control over is age. Still, the extremely low mileage, one owner, what you've already done to the car, "good" answers to the above questions might bring the pricing to that of a 2008 with slightly less features or more mileage.

As another poster mentioned, use KBB as a starting point, get Carfax and Autocheck reports, and scour asking prices on cargurus.com, autotrader.com, and cars.com.

 

I paid $27k for a 2008 car with very similar options, condition, and mileage a few months ago. I paid a bit more than I would have otherwise because I knew the car had spent its whole life in California and never seen salt. My car is also silver, which is an easier color to sell (although I, personally, would have bought a green one in a heartbeat), and has PVD "chrome" wheels. Take a bit off for the green color, a bit off for the bumper replacement, and a bit off because it's a 2007 instead of a 2008.

 

Well crap. Now I know why I could never find an '08 with AWD.

That's right, I forgot.

 

Thanks for all the great replies everyone. I'll see what happens, whoever buys it will get an excellent car. I don't drive the LS as much as I have a truck as daily driver, and the idea is to get a "fun" car.

 

I picked up a similar 2008 model with 32k miles and multiple owners from a member here for apprx 25k and drove all the way from Calgary to Las Vegas, It was a fun drive and both the seller and me were motivated to see the deal through. Its will be a fun story to share here at some point because of customs/border control and local DMV involved.

 

i paid 28k for a black on black fully loaded 07 LS460 w 66k miles.

 

Sheesh!
These cars must really hold their value out there in CA!
When you say fully loaded, do you mean an L with rear side window shades, A/S, rear fold down arm rest fully loaded with audio and climate controls, the rear cooler box, radar cruise, and the fully extendable, fold out (Lay-Z-Boy) with leg rest, rear passenger seat; Executive Pckg?

 

If not, then it's only "well equipped", like mine.

Reminds me of a couple of days ago when I was shopping for a car for my wife (Mazda and Hyundai). The advert for one of the cars said, "fully loaded". So when I called about the car, I asked if it had nav.....the reply was "no". Then I asked if it had leather.....again, "no. At that point I saw no reason to ask if it had a sunroof. LOL

 

I think every ad for a used LS, even for the basic non-nav cars, has "fully loaded" somewhere in it.

For a '07-'08 SWB "fully loaded" means all of the following, in decreasing order of rarity (and I've NEVER seen a SWB car equipped this way, because almost none of them came with DRCC):

- DRCC
- Lexus Link
- Comfort Plus
- Self-parking (also means nav + IPA)
- Mark Levinson
- Soft-close doors/trunk

 

Aren't all LS460s equipped with soft close doors/trunk? Mine is.

 

I believe for 2007-2009 SWB's, it was a separate option:

One-Touch Open/Close Power Trunk with Power Door-Closer

For LS460L's, it was standard.

 

As Gbp indicated it was an option for SWBs, although I've never seen one without it, kind of like I've never seen one without the Comfort package (cooled front seats, heated wheel, heated rear seats, sunshade).
