Default Highest mileage RCF?

Found this. Almost 150,000 miles on this RCF. Never seen another RCF anywhere close to that. Was available for $30K about a month ago.

Thanks for posting. Glad to see someone enjoyed that beauty for that many miles but i wouldn't touch it with a stick if I were in the market. 30k miles/yr on a high performance car is questionable at best even if owner claims they were mostly highway driven miles.
Doesn't seem to be a fully-equipped model either but color combo is great so hope it sells although IMO $30k seems high. Can't you get one with half of the mileage (maybe less) for another $5k or so?

No doubt. I just was happy to see RCF with that mileage. I agree with what you said. It probably went through quite a few owners and has wear on it.

I personally purchased my RCF at only 8000 miles for the same reason by spending a few grand extra. Wanted to start with the best possible odds and then control everything from there.

It would be nice to see if it had the valley plate issue.

I don't think I'd be worried about a Lexus beyond 150 or 200k miles

I feel like any of the major issues the IS-F guys have already gone down that path

History history history. Hwy miles are easy on a car especially performance car. No torque on the expensive parts means very little wear. I’d way rather have a well maintained high mileage hwy car that was driven easy than a low mileage city car that raced from lights to lights.
