Yea, I just meant he brought it in for inspection every 10,000 miles to a Lexus dealership to make sure everything looked good.

Good price. You saved $20k. That combined option MSRP is $43-$44k.

Yea, TMV (true market value) on edmunds for private party was $26.3 and KBB was around $25.7K so I figure I got a pretty good deal at $23.9k. I think a lot of cars are going for below these numbers though due to the economy.
