Default 2004 LS 430 exactly 50,000
I captured my 2004 LS 430 turn exactly 50,000 miles. I thought this might inspire other owners to capture other odometer milestones and post them.

I have a few milestones on my phone, but with over 8,000 pictures in my camera roll... it might take me a long time to find them lol.

And wow, only 50k? I considered my car to be somewhat low miles having just shy of 140k on an '04. How long have you owned your LS?

Ironically, exactly 4 months ago today. I bought it on Feb, 27th in Minnesota and drove it back here to Wisconsin.

Good lord, that thing must have never been driven! Does it look like a garage queen and in almost showroom condition like I'm fantasizing about right now?? lol

And if you don't mind saying, how much did you pick it up for? Was it a private seller or dealer?

Yes, I believe it was a garage queen, and if you can sit through this 5 minute youtube video I recorded 4 months ago you can see for yourself just how nice it is. I think I paid $12,900? private party.

That's embarrassing to have so few miles on such a nice car... get out and drive that thing.

What was the one thing I was wrong about, other than the suede?

Here, I copied my comment minus my introduction...

I'm sure you know by now from others on the forum that you were wrong about one thing the video (other than the "suede" headliner lol)... the part where you said you "probably paid a premium" for the car. Obviously, you got one smoking deal on that thing. To get an 04-06 UL with over 100k miles and a slightly less than perfect interior and exterior would run about what you paid for this beauty. Consider yourself very, very lucky good sir.

At first I just clicked on the notification bell it only gives you a little blurb so I didn't see your full comment.
Anyway, Thanks for your nice comments but keep in mind it is on its original timing belt and water pump, along with most everything else.
