Just picked up another 2006 LS 430, which is great, but still lusting a bit after a LS 460L Hybrid or 2017 Ultra.

Carvana has had this listed awhile and I just wondered if anyone else had evaluated it beyond the website info and the Lexus service record, which is solid.

I'm familiar with the hybrid risk, so an extended warranty would be in the cards, I expect.

- August 2015 date of service, so three more years on the battery.
- 79K Miles
- $43K

Thoughts?

TriC

As you say, they have had it for a while now, but I have no idea if (or to what extent) Carvana is negotiable on price. Personally, I would have a hard time spending that kind of money on something with somewhat higher mileage. My 600 has just a few more miles than the car you have under consideration and it is absolutely rock solid although 5 years older. The LS 600h L is a way different animal than the LS 430 - it is quieter, rides better, and (obviously) has far more get up and go. The substantial difference in weight is quite noticeable.

For what it's worth, I've always found Carvana way more expensive that a traditional dealer (which is weird because you'd think they have far less overhead). Here is a long read about one experience with trying to get them to back up their warranties:
