Price is definetly high especially for the mileage. Got my certified 07 Awd 46k miles fully loaded with navi minus the ML system had on the 18" g spyder rims even came w factorys priced tagged at 26800 talked them down to 24500 then there was tax and title. I'd keep lookin. You can find them as low as 22000 under 70k miles

I haven't read everyone elses response but for an extra $2k you could have an IS350. My girl bought her IS350 for $20k with 89k miles in MINT condition. Fully loaded, ML, everything. Looks exactly like mine. Be patient, and look around!

AutoCheck is great, only 2 owners...

It's probably because they have to much in it. That means the cost to certify it, the cost of maintenance to throw it on the lot, and their purchase price.

it took me about a month to find mine. I specifically wanted starfire pearl, navi and under 50k miles. budget was 27k. good luck with your car hunt. try to find a certified one if you can. You'll have a 3 year or 100k miles warranty whatever comes first. They replace all the rotors brakes and tires should it be worn to a certain extent fix any curb rashes on ur rims first oil change free car wash as long as u have it (which i wouldnt use bc they run it through the machine) loaner car when u get ur car serviced and road side assistance should ur car break down and need to be put up in a hotel they pay for all that.

Screw them then. Bought mine from carmax. Tho no haggle, I got mine @ a decent price considering mine is almost loaded. Only missing adaptive cruise and ML.

FYI. Took me 6 months to find the one I want.
