Exclamation Purchasing used 2009 lexus IS350 with 179k KM

I am looking at purchasing a used 2009 lexus is350, with 179k km. I test drove it, and took it to get evaluated. Just wanted to know how long i should expect it to last and if i should watch out for anything. it only has a cold air intake.

1.724 years.

Make sure the startup-rattle doesn't happen, obviously no CELs, overall a well-maintained interior and engine bay, and look under the engine oil cap for any odd foaming or smells (fuel/coolant).

Since it's an IS 350, I would give it 1.725 years.

Lifetime on an average car is 150,000 miles. Lexus is more than above average in reliability. https://www.consumerreports.org/car-...200-000-miles/
