That's a pretty decent deal. I bought my used 2011 IS350 F Sport with ~6000 mile for $38000 with $1000 incentive but keep in mind that I bought mine when Japan was still recovering from the tsunami so dealers were harder to negotiate. You might be able to knock off at least $500 more or so. I'm from Cali as well.

I'd be nervous the car has been in an accident and repaired/repainted. Go over every panel inside and out, looking for rough paint, overspray, waviness, or misaligned panels. Also check the door jams for a white film between the nooks and crannies. White dust or film is a sign it's been in a body shop and repainted.

If you can wait, just wait for for the 3rd Generation to come out and get a daily driver or beater for now. If you can't, give the car a full inspection inside and out with your mechanic friend. Have him test drive it as well. Does the car have a clean report? Sounds like a really good deal. Because its a good deal, might be others in the market looking at the same car. Hopefully its still at the dealership when you return. Good luck.
