It is a Lexus and will last you for another 100K. My old IS300 went to 115k without any problems except for O2 sensor.

So picked it up today for flat 14k.
The only issue is a vibrating rear view mirror but trying to get used to it..

Very nice! $14k is a GREAT price for 113k miles. That's really nothing on a Toyota/Lexus. The car looks great! Paint and everything looks great!!

Also, there's a TSIB for the vibrating rear view mirror, but it won't apply to you since your so far out of warranty. Might help if you want to bring it up at the dealer for out of pocket repair though.

Thanks, mirror fix is about 1k so its not worth the money from my point of view. It doesn't make any noise just vibrates very easy from bumpy roads.

I think its a great deal...I have the '11 and they look identical, but you paid $14K...kinda of wish I held out and found a nice used 350...but all there was were 250s. 350s used in great condition are rare!

Awesome deal! The car looks great, do the regular maintenance and you should have nothing to worry about.

My personal experience:
07 IS350 sold @ 95k, just normal maintenance and a gas cap
02 IS300 sold @ 110k, just normal maintenance and 1 O2 sensor.

Best of luck with it
