Hello,

Considering the purchase of a 07-08 LS460. My target budget is approximately $30k, but can stretch a little. The only option I really want is the ML audio system. However heated and cooled seats would also be nice. I would like to keep miles under 70k. What are the easiest way to spot the ventilated seats? Perforation on the seat?

Is it realistic to find a clean example within my modest target budget? I have been shopping the online websites and most are sold by independent used car shops which worry me. I would prefer to buy from an individual or worst case Lexus/MB/BMW or similar dealership.

Thanks for the help

 

Just for reference, I got an 07 LS460L with all options except Executive seating and big brakes for 35k. It is CPO (great thing to have) and had ~41k when I bought it.

I believe you can get what you're looking for easily and certified if you stay patient and look around. Most people here said they made looking for the perfect LS a second job, but it pays off in the end. Good luck looking!

 

Look at the first post in this thread. They're the two buttons on each corner of the console. Ironically, the only two buttons that aren't labeled!

Pricing is regional and so is availability (which IMHO drives pricing). In the mid-atlantic region I am seeing prices for under 40K CPO vehicles range from mid to high 30's even some in the low 40's.

I have started looking outside the region like FLA for example, looks like pricing is 10-15% less.

 

You can find some here in NC for around 30-35k that are CPO but like everyone has stated its a second job finding one you like and with all of the right options...Good Luck finding the perfect LS460.

 

Do your homework, search this forum and learn about the option packages. Trust me it will payoff in the end, it you really want the LS you are looking for search will become a part time job.

 

I picked up my CPO in So. Cal. for 40k last year. Not sure which package it was but it has the Mark Levinson system and automatic parking. I checked recently just for ****s and giggles, and the prices dropped enormously.
