Lexus of Westminster charges $125 for a 27point inspection

everywhere you go will charge you ~1-1.5hrs of shop rate. Lexus dealerships are good, all will be ~$100-120.

You could try taking it to a toyota dealership if it's an older lexus, and they SHOULD only be around $75-100, but they won't be familiar with the newer models at all.

Why not have the seller pay for the inspection and if it passes you purchase the car. If that doesn't work just split the inspection bill. Just make sure you take the car to a place you both agree on.
