Ill be at the dealer tomm buying the car. 17 is the lowest he will go the car needs nothing all is done. The car is very clean no paint jobs at all no scratches. He even said he will lift the car for me to see underneath it. I even have 3 days to return the car with my money back and a 90 day warranty. From what i seen on ebay and even on here i cant find this car for that price any where.

Is this a Lexus dealer or independent? If Lexus, then is it certified? If not, it is still a good deal but I'd take it to Lexus and pay for them to do an inspection of the car.

In any case, it sounds like congrats are in order.

Although they own all these dealerships, it is the Infinity dealership that is checking the car right? Is the Lexus part of their dealership going to give you a hard time if something comes up and you take it in? Can you request that the checkup be done by one of their Lexus dealerships?
