I just picked up my nightfall mica LS500 (2018- 14k miles) that is loaded to the max with just about everything available on the model. My first though was: what if all this stuff breaks down?
I had a LS2007, then a 2013 and now the 500. Picked it up in Denver and drove it home to San Antonio. I am not used to the 20” wheels and the run-flats were replaced with a less than road noise friendly tires, but the ride home was a joy (except for the N.E. New Mexico rough roads). I still have not learned all of the features on the car but I really liked the heads up display. Tires only have 7k miles on them but I want to replace them soon.
i found the car to be just as roomy as the 2013 and as quiet as well. The extra speakers in the ML made the sound better than the ML in the 2013.
Congrats and can't wait for you to post the car up, if they are the run flats then you should replace them, I'm waiting tell they are done to replace them. I'm surprised you find it just as roomy as the the 13 LS I think that had more room then this.
I replaced the run flats on mine with the Michelin Primacy MXM AS and the car rides like a totally different car! Much smoother. I also purchased a flat tire repair kit off Griots Garage (https://www.griotsgarage.com/product...ortby=ourPicks) to keep in the trunk just in case.

That's the interior combination I love, with ML audio, massage seats, and HUD!
Can you say where in Denver you purchased (I am nearby), and how much? (You can send a private message if you prefer).

Feel free to post more photos!
i think I got a good deal:
one owner car originally purchased at a Lexus dealer in Denver late 2018 with sticker price of $109k.
Owner traded for a Cadillac Escalade at John Elway Cadillac in early May 2020 with 14k miles on it. TSB and all maintenance done. I purchased from Elway this week for $58,001.00 plus TTL. (I don’t know why the 01). I did make a mistake in my post above. There was a tire replaced on the rear at 7k miles but replaced with a run flat. Currently all tires are original run flats with the exception of the replacement. I am going to replace the run flats soon.

There wasn’t another one like it for sale anywhere in the US on any of the sites (autotrader, car gurus, Carvana) that I could find. My credit union where I financed it said they had the value at 72k for loan purposes.

Did you check to see if your car is under the fuel pump recall list? This link will list it based upon your VIN: www.nhtsa.gov/recalls
