Default 2008 gs350 engine straining at high speeds

I am looking to purchase this 2008 lexus gs350 awd, however, during the test drive, I noticed the engine would start straining at high speeds (80 mph). It would be perfectly smooth at lower speeds. It does have 170xxx miles, which could be the cause, but it has a really excellent maintenance history. Any insight?
