Yea if it checks out with the Lexus service manager and he recommends then it might be a good choice.

BUST! had scratchs all over the car. most were surface ones and could maybe be buffed but i aint taking a chance.
hate these guys who keeps lieing. i asked him like 4 times are there any scratchs. he walked around and told me two.
bastards.
but interior was flawless.
he was telling me that i could repaint whole car for $1000 and itd be like new. what the hell... im thinkin at least 5k to paint whole thing, especially when its mercury silver.

Same experience I had in my search for a mint LS430, the car salesman just don't have an eye for detail in terms of what makes a car mint condition (or very clean,etc) and they sometimes are known to lie just a little : )

Go ahead and register as the owner and print the service history. You can then delete it. When it asks why, there is an option to say you never owned the car. Your login will remain valid, even if you don't have any cars.

I had a number of instances where a great car appeared on autotrader, cars.com, craiglook, or a dealer website. When I called the day it appeared, I was told the car sold locally a few days earlier. It can take up to a week for ad services to get pics taken and place the ad for the dealer.
I called a number of Lexus dealers and told them want I wanted. They called me when a car came in that fit my requirements - or was anywhere close. Of course, once I found my car, the calls and emails continued to come. I nicely tell each that I already purchased an LS430.
