Checking out an LS460L this weekend...
Anything in particular I should take note of? I have printed up all the TSB's so I will most likely be getting all that done (assuming everything else checks out on inspection) through a local dealership.
However, I was wondering if there was anything/any advice from the current owners I should look out for?
Looking forward to (hopefully this weekend) joining the Lexus community

Make sure you not only get the CPO Warranty, but ask about all the recalls being taken care of. Ensure you know what you are getting, IE: Mark Levinson Stereo, Ride Height Option, is it an "L" Model? These are a few things I learned about when looking to buy mine, and am glad I got all these options as I would be wanting them after I bought!
"L" is not important to all, but the stereo and air ride are a must IMHO. Good luck!

Mark Levinson and Air Ride are definitely on the car. Those are two deal breakers and I am definitely getting those options, almost the reason why I sternly wanted to get an LWB version.
Don't know if a CPO warranty can be transferred between private seller to private buyer but I will inquire about this.
As for the recalls, the seller is not aware of any of them so he didn't know they even existed, which is why I mentioned it in my OP that i'll most likely be taking care of the TSB's myself.

Let us know how it goes!

It's a great car, I picked my 460L up a few months ago. The one thing that I would add:
check for the gummy trunk button - I felt like I had to jump circus hoops to get my dealer to address the issue
Good luck with the purchase!
