Depending on the condition of the interior, exterior, and most importantly service history. I'd say the price is very reasonable...upon negotiating, I'd also say you can work that advertised price a little lower. I have a 2011, it is awesome!

First thing I would do is go to lexusdrivers.com, register and input the VIN info.

This will give you a better view on the maintenance history of the car. I used this (and carfax) for all the cars I found while shopping online.

Price seems reasonable to me..

He come down 41k. Car has clean record carfax from NJ. Run good sold as is. Exterior has 2 minor paint chip on front hood and side fender. Im still debating if this doesnt look that bad and cant even see from few feet. Im still working on negotiating.

Nice a bad price. Mine was 42K for 2012/21k. If you could get it down to 39K, it would be ideal.

Just so you know I bought my 2011 SFP for 47k with 15k miles on it. It also had about 7k worth of aftermarket work done. The car is also flawless.


This is a good price.


I work in Mooresville. If you want me to go look at it I can for you. No problem inspecting it so you don't waste time. Let me know if I can help.

I couldn't give my SFP 2011 away and it was mint. It had 53k miles on it but I tried to sell it for months for $37k and finally ended up trading it in when the CTS-V I was looking for popped up last month. I got $35k in trade which got me to over $37k with the tax savings. U could def get a 2012 for low 40s all day long. This 2011 ur looking at is not really a good deal.

I found a white 2012 30k miles dealer certified with $45k list price. I try to negotiate down to $42k. What do you guy think if it is a fair deal ? I think the F is a good car to keep for longtime for family sport sedan and hopefully it won't depreciate much.

I wouldn't get any car with the hopes of it not depreciating much. It's not an investment by any means. But I would advise to get the car that you want. The right color combo, options, condition, new/used/CPO....whatever the case may be. Because buyer's remorse is much more important than a depreciation schedule for a car.

That being said, $42k for a 30k 2012 model isn't bad at all. Enjoy it, see the great builds there are available here on the forums, and have a blast!
