Luxury package trim? If so, that seems to be a very good price!

Color is subjective, but that is a color I don't see often, so unique factor is there.

Dark blue with white leather interior fine, esp for luxury model.
Will keep you busy keeping exterior & interior clean.

It looks like the color is Meteor Blue Mica (Code: 8W3), which is a very uncommon color. The other blue that was available for the 2013 GS 350 is Deep Sea Mica (Code: 8V3)

I agree - - - it is a ridiculous low price. I basically bought the same car (2013 RWD, 36k miles, Lux). Mine does have HUD and ML, not sure if this blue one does, but I paid over $5k more.

On top of that, this is in Canada, where I believe car prices are a bit higher?

You got one heck of a deal and that color is awesome. Congrats on your purchase! Beautiful ride.

I hope everything checked out with the car (i.e. not in any previous accidents, nothing wrong with the engine, etc).

Enjoy her!

I like the color, I have seen that color in person and when clean it really "pops".. Make sure there is no problems with the car because $24K USD seems to good to be true.

Good Luck, I hope everything works out for you..

Are they selling it Certified or Used? If it's Certified you'd have a little more piece of mind that they have to fix anything that may be wrong.
