Hi so i’m thinking of purchasing a 2012 ls460 awd for 17000 (107k miles) i took the car to lexus for a full point inspection everything passes except the front axles just started leaking and the cars out of alignment but besides the interior quality is perfect besides some barely faded buttons and the steering wheel leather is a little faded as well but the paints perfect just a couple scratches and i wanna get some advice if i should get it or not, i’m in southern california by the way just to give an idea of the market.
(disclaimer any issues i have i will work on i’m not going to take it in i can do it all myself)

 

I'd want to know specifically what systems were inspected. Valley plate coolant leak, condition of control arms, and other suspension components. If there's a history of regular brake fluid flushes that's a good sign as well. If the car is equipped with air suspension, know that all brands of air shocks fail and are very expensive to replace. Otherwise it sounds like a fair price and you've done what you can to look for issues.

 

Sounds pretty fair.
Bought my 2011 RWD though with 108000 miles for 18000 last August.
Mine had alot of work done to it though and really made the deal good for me.

 

Just as a reference, I just bought a 14 rwd swb with 66k miles for $26k ($81k sticker with full service records)

 

Wow must have been really loaded. Mine sticker priced at 78000 with its option packages.
