@MDLexus350 When I test drove the dark gray, I knew beforehand it had its engine replaced from the CarFax. I emailed the dealership beforehand and they said it needed to be replaced because of the crank. The part was backordered so Lexus just replaced it all together. BUT when I went in person and asked, the salesman said the engine was replaced due to a cracked engine. I am not exactly sure which one is correct but either way, the GSF has a brand new engine so it should be fine. It is also L/Certified so you have nothing to worry about in that regard.

I liked the color of the GSF and I think it goes great with the red but in my opinion, the previous owner did not keep it up as well as the one I purchased. You will notice scratches here and there, especially near the gear shifter. The people I was with also said the back seats had a lot of dirt on them which was surprising. I think it would have helped a lot if the car had been well-detailed before it was put on the showroom floor (I was surprised it wasn't). Anyway, if you are interested in purchasing it I would ask if they could either 1) fix those scratches or replace the scratched parts maybe OR 2) ask for some money off because of the condition. I am not saying it is in bad condition but it definitely shows signs of wear here and there. Good luck! Let us know what you end up deciding and what you think of it.
