Can anyone help me price a used Lexus. Here’s what i know.

2011 lx 570 base model black with tan interior. Needs a detail but interior is all in place.

no codes. No known issues. 101k with complete 90k service done at a California Lexus dealer. Tires and brakes done within 5k miles.

truck has a scuff or too. All seemed to work.

Only one other LX570 posted within 2 months and that seller was non responsive.

thoughts?

I just picked up my 2013 LX570 fully loaded every option with 91,xxx on it for $31,500 from a lexus dealer so maybe $28,000 for yours? I am new to the LX world have had LS for well over a decade now

I think I'd check the Marketplace on ih8mud.com for a second opinion.

What about other services? Where were they done? Seems to me from the wordings only the 90k service was done at the dealer... was that 90k a minor one or 'almost' everything' the dealer recommended?

A stem-to-stern service big time usually happens at 60K, or 30K if the truck tows a lot or otherwise is used in heavy duty (you define) service. If services were done at less than 90K, original owner would have the paperwork.

OT but dealer-recommended service may also include items not mentioned in the owners manual...a great way to pad services...$90 for wiper blades as an example.

I just purchased a 2011 with 108,000 miles in perfect, I mean perfect condition. I purchased in April 2022 which was not a great time and I purchased it from Carmax, so no negotiations, for $32,998. I did the 24 hour test drive which was more of a put it up on jackstands in the garage inspection than a test drive. It was a Houston truck that was well taken care of with a perfect Carfax history showing service at 2 different Lexus dealers in Houston every 5000 miles. The Carfax shows so much more than their Autocheck report. It was traded in by the first owner in 2017 with 58,000 miles with the 60,000 mile service done and sold as Lexus Certified to the second owner who serviced it at the second Lexus dealer every 5000 miles. I paid $199 to have it shipped to Baton Rouge from a Dallas Carmax location with no obligation.

Could I have paid less? Sure but after seeing it and inspecting it I was more than satisfied with the price. If I have learned anything in my 52 years, it is buy the best example of the vehicle you can find even if it costs a little more. You HAVE to know what you are looking at though. If you don't, pay for a PPI. Oh and under no condition use the Carmax financing. I have taken it on 2 trips already and it has over 113,000 miles. I daily drive my 1991 80 series Landcruiser so the LX is used more for trips.

UPDATE: Helped the seller keep the car til he had to leave the country. He gave me a great deal. $26.5k and the only thing wrong is some paint work he tried to cover up stupidly. I am a happy guy
