Good deal or not on a 2015 LS 460 Base?
Well, I found a 2015 LS460 AWD base with a flawless service history for $26,300. Not deeply loaded but does have:
BD Blind Spot Monitor w/Rear Cross Traffic Alert
CP Comfort Package: Climate-comfort front seats, Power rear sunshade, One touch power trunk open/close
FT 19" 15-spoke alloy wheels with all-season tires
ML Mark Levinson 19-spkr w/Single DVD/CD player
Z1 Accy Pkg:Trunk Mat,Cargo Net,Key Glove,Wheel Lock
85k miles but the service history is flawless. I hadn't really thought about going that deep into the newer models but that seems like a pretty strong deal. Now that I have Manheim access again it's really opened my eyes to the wholesale values on these cars. Thoughts?

Is that about Manheim wholesale? Sounds like it would be hard to beat. If you haven't had it before, BSM with cross traffic is a marvelous.
The spread between dealer wholesale and retail on late model LS models must be huge because many of sit on dealer lots for a long time and go through significant mark-downs over time.

That's the cheapest I've seen for a car without a salvage title.

That is an amazing price if not salvaged. Our 2013 had a few more options but cost $39K last year. You're getting a 2-year newer car for 1/3 less cost. What is the mileage?

85k miles. And yes, I can buy through Manheim. I have a dealer/broker who'll do it for me. I am also considering a 2013 ultra-luxury with 81k that goes through the lane on the 3rd. Roughly the same floor and a good history. There is also a 2012 executive seating 460L that is around 17k with 80k miles but I think it has the brake actuator issue.

With either the UL or Executive Class Seating Package the car is almost certain to also have air suspension. The literature doesn't indicate that it was a requirement, but I've never seen either without it. If memory serves, there is no aftermarket option for air struts (not sure if just the rear units or all four) on an AWD LS. And, of course, the Executive Class Seating Package was only available on LWB cars.
I envy your dealer/broker connection!

I'm certainly hesitant about air suspension, even on the 2013+ cars. I suppose it will really just come down to seeing what goes through and if the price hits where I want it. And you're right about my connection...he's a solid guy and I've purchased a numbeFunny how doing someone a good turn at random can provide benefits for a long time. Karma is kinda neat that way.
