Default Rare Maroon 2005

https://www.browndeersales.com/vdp/1...aukee-WI-53224

118K miles, 1 owner, all services done at Lexus Dealer. Looks great inside out. The only thing I notice from the Carfax is that it had a "Mechanical Issue" and got towed back in June 2015 at 104K miles. Since then the owner drove the car much less (was like 10K miles/year before). Of course it's Wisconsin so snow could be an issue. Someone around there might want to check it out?

The car looks nice. Why does it state a 5-speed transmission. Just an error, or not a U.S. vehicle. Didn't know they made 5-speed for 04-06.

I think the dealer just doesn't know. This color does look special though

Good price as long as it isn't all rusty underneath. That would be my biggest concern...

Looks like a nice car for the price... I would have the dealer put it up on a lift to see the underside and check for rust or any driver mishaps.
