I got this one at a dealership about 75 miles south of Chicago. If you're looking (mkpoto) I would suggest craigslist, cars.com, and autotrader. The ones that I found on this site as well as other Lexus sites were too spendy for me. Mine was listed for $6k and I got them down to $5k after pointing out everything I needed to do to the car. It worked. There are a couple paint chips here and there, but, its a 13 year old Illinois car. All in all I am happy with the condition. After maintenence is done, I will focus on the body touch ups as well as buffing the headlights.
