Should I?
Seen a 07 ls460 w 134k miles(rebuilt title) for 3k should I take that deal or no?.. Also going to test drive it tomorrow any red flags to look out for would be helpful

$3k is a steal. Depends on the condition of the car and your mechanical ability. What caused the salvage title? I picked up my 07 with a rebuilt title for $4.8k. It had 159k miles when I bought, car drives excellent for the miles. Haven’t had a single problem, however I think I may have to replace the brake actuator soon.
I spend my my free time buying, fixing and selling cars. So picking up my car with a rebuilt title was nothing to me, but it’s not for everyone.

Very good condition in and out, but the my mechanical level is near non existent....https://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/d/07-lexus-ls460/6745045892.html there's a link if you want to check it out

Try to find out why it was rebuilt, but I would say go for it. We’ve had our “rebuilt” ‘08 for almost 2 years and 30k miles (sitting at 120k now) with virtually no problems (faulty O2 sensor, but that could have happened to any car).
Edit: based on the only picture of the interior, it looks pretty beat up.

At least there's no air suspension so you don't have to worry about that. I think the salvage title would keep you from being able to take advantage of the ZLZ service campaign to replace the interior parts but don't hold me to that. Get the VIN and see what kind of service history you can find out for it.

Seats were definitely swapped out or reupholstered.

What does the ZLZ service campaign is for? And any specific service history I should look for in particular. I dont mind the black interior seats too much since they are in good condition.

Unless the engine and transmission are missing, can you go wrong for 3g?? It's a steal. You can't get a 10 year old Ford Focus for that price. And that's not even factoing in that you can probably talk them down another 500 dollars at least.
