The search is over!! Was lucky enough to find an '08 GS460 with just 58k miles! Guy just traded it in on a '19 Avalon! Was serviced EVERY 5k at Lexus of New Orleans!!! Dealer even put a brand new set of rubber on it! Blessed to get the entire service history! Transport drops it off tomorrow, can't wait!!!

congrats. I always love the GS460 but can't have it since I live in Nebraska (got stuck in my GX460 this morning).

Tell the wife the search still goes on but this time it's about searching for Mods.

With such low miles it must have been at least $10,000.

Looks awesome! I really wanted silver, but found my '08 back in '14 with only 16k on it, so it was a no-brainer. Enjoy it! Awesome overall cars.

A GS460 with mileage that low is a mid to high teens car all day long in most markets. By me, 10k gets you an older awd GS350 with 100K or more. Even my 2006 with 170k got me close to 8k when it was totaled by insurance, after I provided them with service receipts from the past year.

Regardless, congrats on the car, looks great. Wish I could have found one like this by me.

Thank you! I was thrilled to find it, a one owner, and the service records from Lexus where he took it in for EVERY 5k interval is worth its weight in gold! So was the conversation with Lexus!! When do you get to know the entire history on a used car for the previous 11 years!! Thanks again!

Yep I brought a 2010 silver gs460 4 years ago with 30k miles. Still running like new today. The biggest expense was new OEM rotors and OEM low dust brake pads.
