salesguy. sent you a PM .....

We looked for over a year before getting the '14 in October last year. It was CPO from a dealership down in SoCal. Wife was down in San Diego and drove up 100 miles to see and drive it and then bought it. Dealership was going to deliver it to us but when they had an issue with the carrier the salesman drove to our house (which we were okay with).....

When you find one that has all of your criteria add in transportation to either go get it or have it delivered. These are tough to find especially if you don't want black or white....

A quick pic I took before running errands.

Errands? Errands? A Lexus LS doesn't do errands.

Very nice! I wish you good luck with the car!

That car is beautiful. I haven't seen one in grey that looked so good. Love the wheels.

If you decide it's not for you - i'll be be right over to take it off your hands.

Well I just ran across this one. It checks most of the boxes I was looking for, and even though the description doesn't mention it, seems to have air suspension too.

Pricing seems low, as in there might be an accident. Will have to dig into that. Free VIN check online didn't show one - but that isn't definitive of course.

That's a fair price but not great. I'd only pay that if it had a CPO warranty. And no air suspension, you'd see a COMFORT mode on the middle console next to ECO.

Nospinzone

Yes, pricing does seem low. Do your due diligence on it.

Also, it may not be an accident issue, there are previously flooded cars that are, well, flooding the market.

salesguy

You guys are a tough crowd on price (most of you at least). I'm ok not getting the very very best price, as time spend haggling with dealers does come at a marginal cost.

Thanks for the clarification on the air suspension.

here's a relative rare 2011 Sport Model with lows miles for a very reasonable asking price.

This one keeps getting my attention. I love the interior wood color, same as my 2007 ES. For some reason it really catches my eye vs the darker wood that most have.

This is a 2012 but has most of the goodies including air suspension. I'm thinking $34k would be a reasonable price, maybe $33k if I can get it.

AM I correct in assuming that I can't buy an extended warranty once the car is out of factory warranty?

Link doesn't work..hopefully that doesn't mean it sold. I never fully understood the extended warranty options- I am sure someone on here can explain. Or you can call around to Lexus dealerships and ask them- lots of good feedback on here for Toby Rivers at Lexus in Shreveport, LA. He seems to have the best warranty prices. If you would be willing to consider a car from out-of-state and do an inspection, check out Lexus of Sarasota. They have several '13 and '14 on their site right now (no "L" models though- not sure if you're dead set on that). They have a '13 white 460 with 21k miles for $47k. It's not CPO, not sure why- but may be worth a look.

Sorry for the double post...there's a very clean looking 2011 Sport for sale in Florida...asking $30,599 with very low miles. It's a big color but def. a lot of car for the money! I could live with Red if the car was perfect!

The link doesn't work but yes you can get an aftermarket warranty if you so desire....post a few pics if you can.

Well the search continues. Some used car dealers (no surprise) are so shady. Went to one in Woodbridge, VA that was so odd and skeezy, but with all very high end cars. A $20 paint meter from Amazon is like kryptonite to a used car dealer. I don't trust a single one of them.

I ran across this car today, while older and clearly mis-priced, I was taken by the interior. What beautiful wood finish is this? It looks fantastic.
