Default Did I pay too much for my LS460?

Just wanted to get some opinons from everyone.

Just bought a 2007 LS460 Black Sapphire Pearl/Alabaster fully loaded minus the executive package. I paid 43K for the car with 27,600 miles on it.

All opinions are welcome.

Thanks.

I think thats actually a really good deal and is it CPO? I'm looking for something similar for my parents and everything I found has been nearly 10-15k more supposedly...

No its not a CPO. Bought it through private sale. I went over the car with a fine tooth comb. Carfax was clean. It was a corporate lease. Its very clean. I can tell that I'm going to have to get the wind noise issue fixed but since its still under warranty I'm not stressing it. The glove box also needs to be adjusted a little bit but again...warranty, other than that it's clean. Just always nervous not buying something new and want to make sure I didnt overspend.

I really didnt think putting down 50K on a car to have a good monthly payment was smart. So I figured I'd get something nice used and save some money.

Thanks for responding.

Seems like a great deal! Besides, if you enjoy it - that's priceless.

Yes, that is a very good deal. I have been looking for an LS460 (2007 or 2008) for the past month on a daily basis and that is a very solid deal. Enjoy!

You did VERY well. The dealer gave me exactly that amount for my '07 with almost the exact same miles. But my car only had NAV...no other options (such as ML). Of course that was in August and some allowance has to be made for the extra depreciation that shows up as the new model year vehicles roll in. But you did really well.

You did fine! I flew up to NH from NJ last December ($75 one way). It was the perfect storm of recession, a bad winter (rwd is not good), and the scare of really high fuel prices. My 07 SWB had 30k miles and is loaded with all available options. I paid $41k Certified Pre-Owned from Manchester Lexus.

Wow - that is a fantastic deal! I wish I could find a deal like that!
