is this the highest mileage 3IS??
very impressive # of Miles IF he got the year of the car incorrect from 2012 to min. 2014
"2012 Lexus IS350 Car is pretty clean, garage kept, drives great, Cold A/C, Brand New Tires (continental) with lifetime road hazard on them. 273k miles."

There's a member over on the CT forum approaching 600k miles. Tires, brakes, and oil changes is all i believe.
Edit: TSB for egr on intake manifold. Brakes were original until 500k lol.
Over on then 2IS forum multiple members nearing 300k trouble free miles.
And yeay I didn't really look at the ad seriously before just accounted for mileage (totally possible) but looks very scummy.

I saw a 2017 IS200T for sale with 312k on it. $11k. I almost bought it, it was clean but Carfax showed 3-4 fender benders. Mileage doesn't scare me but shoddy bodywork does. I've owned enough old Toyotas to know that 300k is just breaking it in.
There are several documented cases of Toyota Tundras running over 1,000,000 miles with very little repairs.

very Impressive CT and 2IS and Toyota/Lexus for reliability...one of the main reason like the CT story that gives me peace of mind vs. Domestic/European

300K for 11K...i would also account for if it spent its life in a "True" 4 season state like CO...gotta look out for rust and other Winter indicators that can more readily show the owners care or lack thereof for his/her vehicle
2 things to always look out for...flooded cars being super cheap...most dealers will try to conceal this but if you ask the right questions, you can usually get a straight answer
