I'm new to the forum. I've been lurking around the forum for some time now. I live in Japan and drive a 2006 GS350 that I love to death because of its reliability and looks. I paid 6K for it about 2 yrs ago when I first arrived here. Wish I could bring it back to the US but it's not 25 yrs old yet. Anyway I'll be moving back state side in a couple of months and I'm looking to continue my Lexus experience. I've been looking on Cars.com, Autotrader, and Cargurus to find a 2013 or 14 in my price range. The max I'm looking to spend is 35K. I found one car that fits the bill for me but it's located in Texas. I'll be living in FL. I know that I'm taking a chance purchasing a vehicle that I have never seen or driven. Can someone take a look and let me know what you think. (link) Seems like a good deal and the car looks to be in good condition. They are asking 40K but I will see if I can talk them down to 37.5. Does anyone think it's possible to talk them down being that the car is a 14 with low miles? I appreciate any advise you guys can give me. Thanks. Pics of my JP ride below. I think they started making this model in 2007 for the US.
If you'll be in Florida, keep an eye on dealers in areas like Naples, where a lot of snowbirds and retirees live. I've seen a lot of low-mileage LS 460s for sale down there, mostly RWD, of course.
