Yeah 14k but downsides are:
-100k miles
-bald tires
-small ding on rear

Still worth in my opinion!

Dont hesitate to use a dealership that looks all over the country for the car you want if you live in an area where cars are generally more expensive, it usually isn't more than a few hundred ($500-$800) to ship it to you. They buy insurance on the car so that if it doesn't come to you as represented it can be returned, Just give them the specs you are looking for and they search other reputable dealers inventory. I used one in Louisiana to look for a 250 for me. A local reputable luxury used car dealership is a good place to start, ever hurts to ask. They're always looking to make a sale, but don't feel obligated.

good luck

Definitely worth it! I know at least Toyota's in my experience have been amazing. I have a 2000 Toy 4runner been in fam since new with 180K that I'm not kidding you runs and is holding together likes it's only a couple years old with just reg maintenance (and it's lifted). On T4R.org theres guys running 300K and still beating them up off road. Parents have a 2007 Sequoia that seems brand new, never had an issue. Hopefully similar luck with a Lex 350.. lot more computer components to go haywire I suppose.

This is an interesting idea I haven't thought of.. was trying to buy from private seller and save the sales tax but this might be worth looking into. Thanks!

^ I'm sure your whip is sick but I can already hear the wife saying "it looks like a guys car" (insert whiney voice). It's going to be her DD. Finding 19's or 20's that she likes that aren't hideous will be a real challenge. At least she'll let me put them on tho :-P i think....
