i mean you get what you paid for applied here, i had seen high end shop PPF quoted right around the amount you posted vs “i can do cheaper than the other guy”

The high end shop remove and reinstall all the emblems for PPF, while the cheaper guy just cut a big window around the emblems.

also where the parking sensor the cheap job looks like *** compare to the pro.

 

I cannot see the posting, can you provide the details?

2018 GSF, 29k miles, USB on Red. Located in Statham, Ga.

 

I looked at that one and it has a branded title. But thank you for sending the information across.

 

2018 USB 2.0 locate in Gainsville GA. The car does show having history of light damage rear, I am not sure it dealer breaker for you or not? For me accident and damage free was a absolute must. GL

 

Accident/structural/flood events are a no go for me, wont touch a car with that kind of history 99.9% of the time. But having 1 event classified damage is normally just no big deal as they are typically less than $1k in claim value.

I saw that car and spoke to the dealership this afternoon. It has 50k miles which is higher miles than I would prefer, but it isnt high enough for me to not consider. I need to know more about the damage and quality of repair. If repair is high quality, maintenance was regularly/timely completed with no weird service records and overall condition is steller. I would consider it.

Anyone want to guess on the price before 2018 USB 2.0 has the price listed?

 

$59,999 ?

that's my guess

 

I, too, was searching for a blue one, but couldn’t find the right match. I eventually “settled” on a white one that had everything else that I wanted, specifically the red interior, and tasteful mods.
I plan to wrap mine soon to change the exterior color.

 

So just to give you an update neither of my potential two options worked out. The white GSF, the seller wanted me to pay all cash without even getting title notarized. His excuse was he didn't have time for anything, more to the story as something was off, i am just going to leave it there. As for the black GSF, I am going to pass, not the color for me, I dont want the headache or paranoia that comes with owning a black car, I want to drive and enjoy the car.

 

My $0.02 after owning a 2020 in Caviar…the black is not as bad as a straight black because the Caviar has flakes in the paint. Obviously it’s still black so you will always have to deal with that but I have found that the flaking masks uncleanliness by a bit. That being said, I will be ceramic coating at some point because as NickL said, nothing better than a car that is always clean and a breeze to keep that way. Well worth the cost in my book even if full body PPF isn’t in the budget.

FYI the dealership has some bad reviews on yelp.

 

Update: After months of searching across the US, walking away from many potential purchases, I finally purchased a 2016 GSF it is expected to be delivered April 5th. Spec: Atomic silver, black leather, black calipers. History: 100% stock, 1 owner, 24k miles, perfect service history, zero body/paint work and damage/accident free. I have not seen the car in person, it is coming from Texas (I am located in North Carolina); but from the questions/requests/asks I put the sales person through the car is dang near perfect/spotless. I saw the trade-in photos and the car is extremely clean and was maintained properly (I checked the service history using the mylexus site).

I realized during my hunt finding a USB was easy, but finding a GSF with 1 owner, perfect car history, maintenance completed on time, etc. was extremely difficult and was more important to me. If one was posted in that condition with a perfect history and was priced reasonably it would sell fast (~24hr-48hrs). So I pulled the trigger within the first few hours of posting.

 

Congrats! !!

 

congratulations, I can relate to how you feel. As a used car buyer the color choice become secondary importance to me, 1st is no accident and maintenance up to date. Originally i want a USB as well but i end up with red instead lol.
