Default Buying a 2011 RX350 What do I need to know

This car we are considering has 26K, one owner vehicle. What maintenance can we expect at 5 years?

Thank you

Turtle,
We have an '11 RX350 FWD CPO with 60K bought 10/2013 @ 32K. We've not had to do anything except change the oil, the ATF (my idea), the brake fluid and the tires.
We are not anticipating any maintenance other than the regular stuff @ Toyota. I think you will enjoy your ultra low-mileage car.

That is low mileage and it should be a great vehicle. You also need to ask what maintenance has been done in the past 5 years? Has it had regular oil changes? At least one brake fluid change? A couple of air and cabin filter changes? Tire replacement? At 5 years they are almost at the age where they could have UV or dry rot, especially in a sunny place like Hawaii. Who is selling it? Is it CPO? What does the Carfax say?
