Flew out and test drove it. Looked it over and it looked good ....couple battery cover / shroud clips missing but other than that ...no issues. Got a 48 month / 50,000 mile extended warranty.

So far, in the 9 months since I bought my 2014 LWB, I have made a number of small mods: metal-finish pedals, Lloyds Luxe floor mats, all LED interior lights, and mud guards. Check out those threads if you are interested. I expect to black-wrap my grille and install a Beatsonic iPhone mirroring kit soon.

Thanks!!...I found it extremely hard to find one with the KLA and Dynamic cruise combination. I ran across maybe two and at that time I wasn't ready to pull the purchase trigger. My first mod will be the LED interior light mod. It's the wife's car but i will do a couple things here and there to satisfy my need to upgrade something.

Default New owner 08 ls 460

Just bought a 08 LS 460 owned by a mom and pop 37000 miles haven't picked it up yet like new will try to negotiate Lexus extended warranty for used cars when I pick it up. Have owned a 04 GX 470 for eight years plan on keeping it for winter and hauling stuff. Using the LS for other things and trips. The GX is comfortable but could be a little bigger for me 6ft 250lbs. The LS has plenty of driver room for me rides like a dream cant't wait to get it.

Congrats, MrBill, welcome to the LS forum. You will love the car, and one with such low miles is almost new. Hope you got the car pre-purchase inspected by an independent company or a Lexus dealership. Test drive it also. Look out for the main issues people have discussed on other threads - control arms, brake actuator, and air suspension if so equipped. Enjoy the ride, and like they say, No pics?, then it didn't happen

New Member Here. I recently bought a 2013 LS Base RWD.
- Deep Sea Mica (Blue) Exterior
- Black Interior
I am enjoying the car so far. I traded in a 2009 BMW 750li for it and took my 22' rims off and strapped them to my LS.....Looked great but rubbed quite a bit in the rear...so I removed them and went back to the factory wheels. I am very interested in how I can put 22s on the LS without changing the suspension. Is it possible? My wheels have a Mid Offset and I believe the LS has a High offset. Looking for suggestions. Thanks and I appreciate any and all help on this matter.

Congrats and welcome to CL. Awesome color. I really like your OEM 19 inch split-7 hollow wheels. I am not a fan of the 22's. But if you really want some advice, post this question on the main forum. Enjoy the ride...
