I just turned 92k in my 2011 GS350 RWD. Bought it with 58k about 1.5 years ago. Plan on running it to at least 200k. Water pump is on my mind as a near future replacement.
the driver seat leather is worn and completely cracked, bought new leather cover and will be replacing that soon.

My 07 gs450h had the tin and it caused 7 or 8 leaks in the mid pipe. I brought to meineke and they made me a new one for 180

I have a gs450h, it has done 425k. Since I have had it, the cats needed changing, and the front swaybar rubber bushes, but that is really it. It has had a replacement engine at some time prior to me owning it. Love this car.

Cannot vouch for its previous history as I did not get one when I purchased this car. I believe it was a LIMO when first purchased, so many kms. CVT, is all good. I baselined it by changing all the oils, water pump plugs, O2 sensors and plugs. By looks none of these items were in bad condition, just wanted to make sure it was in a known state. Hybrid Battery is good too. Next step is to apply the high pressure fuel pump noise dampening cover from the LS series. So yep, regular early changes is what I am gonna do.

I have 257k on mine, just had to replace the idler pulley, and it sounds like the pulley on the oil pump (if I have that right) might need to be replaced. Car runs great, everything still works. I had the trans serviced with a complete drain and refill of Toyota Trans fluid. Water pump was and belt was done in the last 5 mos. Runs amazing. Next I plan on replacing the front bumper cover and maybe doing new headlight assemblies.

257 nice. Oil pump pulley would be the crankshaft pulley/harmonic balancer, why what's wrong with it I made a tool to hold it so the crank doesn't rotate

Nice, seems like there is no need to worry about high mileage on Lexus cars. Not sure I would want a 400,000km BMW, maybe a Benz would be ok? Definitely not a Landrover.

Actually turns out it's the tensioner pulley. Is that kind of a beach to replace? I can't seem to find any how-to's on that specific one.
