I found a ONE owner 1991 LS400 with only 137,000 miles that I am going to probably buy tomorrow. It is in really nice shape. No rips or tears in the leather, only a minor scratch or 2 on the paint. The only problem is is that I don't know if the timing belt has been changed. I am going to take it straight to the nearest Toyota dealership to have it done. Would it be better to take it to the Lexus dealership for my first maintenance visit or will the Toyota dealership be fine?

The car is only $3375 and at that price I figure if I can get 3-4 years out of it it will be a very cheap investment.

overpriced. better off saving a little money and buying a maintained '95 for ~$5k.

otherwise yeah, take it to a toyota dealership and use OEM parts.
