Default Good deal?

Going into the dealer today to finalize my purchase

2008 Lexus IS 250 AWD with navigation and 23k miles. Clean car fax single owner.
Purchase price is $24250

I thought that was a good deal. Am I making a mistake.

Just picked up the car and its sweet. Also noticed that the odometer is 800 less miles than they stated. So it was 21800 instead of 22600.

did you ask why it's not CPO? Maybe it's still under factory warranty so it doesn't need to be CPO'ed but for me I would've asked why.

Maybe OP didn't buy it from a Lexus dealership, just a used car dealership or something?

But yes if it was at a Lexus dealership, i would have asked why it wasn't CPO'd either seeing as it would fit the "6 model years or younger and 70k or less" rule for CPO Lexus vehicles.
