1. There is a link in the FAQ. But we know it isn't an Ultra if it has no NAV.
2. Need more infor to make that decision.
3. From what I understand, no. You have a different harness.

Clean carfax?
All maintenance records?
Any damage?
Color?
Mechanical Problems?
How's the paint?
I understand from your post it doesn't have NAV - what about other features?

Honestly i drove the car it looked good & felt good it did have 1 tiny ding in the drivers door like someone opened their door and hit it , i'm gonna do a carfax myself when i was checking the car it sounded like a pulley/belt was making noise that's the only problem i noticed,then again it's freezing and snowing over here and from my experience with my denali it tends to make noise from the belts when it's cold.

The car is a lease from my credit union and the payoff is 28grand the guy is a older man with 3 cars 1 being the LS 460 he said i can have it checked out by lexus and if there was something wrong he'd pay to get it fixed.

The color is black on black.

$28K is a bit much without navi. You can get an ultra luxury for that much.

Visit the Lexus model library for more info on options and packages for the 2004 year model. Or check the FAQ on top of the forum.
