I am actually coming over from owning an Audi, I just sold my second stage III+ B5 S4 and was looking for something slow and big. It has come down between the LS430 and the Audi A8L.
What is you guy's input on picking up this LS430 and getting all the issues fixed? are the items on the list parts which will cause issues later because they weren't taken care of even if I get it fixed and also what would you for the car in the condition it is in?
Thank you in advance

LS either has Navi/ML or no Navi/nakamichi.
Seems like you really like that particular car, well if you have a big itch for it I'd offer around 9k, that's if nothing else is wrong with it. All those fixes can really add up fast to 3k+ bill for repairs. Mirrors alone will cost $550. The key to LS 430 reliability is maintenance! If it's maintained not properly or poorly, or even worse neglected - it's a huge money pit. I'd recommend looking for another LS, they're out there. Good luck.
