Just picked up my 04 LS430 with 100k on the clock.

I have a 2002 LS430 with 171k and it's running very strong. (I am looking for some replacement chrome wheels - the chrome is failing and they are beginning to leak.)

I love this thread. My 1998 LS was hit and totaled (because of mileage) at 337k miles. It was flawless and I had planned to take it to 500k and know 100% it would have done 400k without an issue.
I have the chance to purchase a very well Lexus maintained '04 430 Ultra Luxury with 290k on the clock for $10k.
Opinions?

That price seems a bit high for that many miles... You can get closer to 120k miles for around $12k... at the worst...That's way too high a price for that many miles... I'd back off on that one...

2001 Base model with 128k on it... bought 3 years ago with 109k on it...
2004 ML version with 48K on it... just bought last month... so no high miles on this one

you can find uls w less miles for a couple grand more... I have a base 01 w 73k on it

Agreed, I can spend a bit more for a non-UL with a lot less miles, though I haven't seen many '04's and up for less than $13k. In my opinion though miles mean much less on a Lexus than other cars - I have seen some low mileage LS's neglected that need serious work. I know that this had Mobil 1 oil changes religiously + won't need a timing belt for at least 70k. I love paying less for a perfectly maintained, highway miles car. I don't think there is an '04+ UL for under $15k anywhere. But, I also don't know if anyone else feels as I do, which would be important come resale time.

Miles are a imaginary tool... give me a 200k car with highway miles and a car guru owner over a 25k mile female owned city driven car ALL DAY LONG...

i have seen hundreds of low mile cars driven and treated like garbage and i have seen equally as many 100k plus cars that looked like they were off a showroom floor...

I GO TO THE AUCTIONS a lot and I can tell u I LOVE HIGH MILE cars... BECAUSE MOST people dont and therefore i get great deals on awesome cars


GUM is 100% correct .. its impossible to find any UL 2004 and NEWER for under $15k around .. unless the dealer or owner has no clue its the baddest optioned LEXUS on the planet then its game over u get a STEAL

I highly dissagree on that price you quote . I seen 2000 ls400 with around 100k for close to that price of 12k ,maybe 10k. I think for 12k you can barely get a 02 03 ls430 . I got mines for 17k and its around 100k and its 05. I see 04 at 100k for 18k . I believe price vary depending what availiable . I don't think that car at 290k miles is worth 10k maybe with a new motor and new transmission and suspension but at 10 k , I would. Talk it down to maybe 6500

I agree on that a ul 02 goes for more than 14k with 100k miles . Ul 04 and up usually I see them at around 19k and up with around high 80 to 90 k miles. Here in Atlanta cars are actually cheaper here too , so it won't be easy to find a deal. I feel so cheated , bad thing is I never knew the ul was a 12k option , if I knew i would settle for one but I hate air suspension . That's why I sold my s500 and pick up the lex . I was tired of being a mechanic every weekend . Thank god there's Lexus .
