I ended up trading in the 2013 GS 430 for a 2014 LS 460. The LS has 40k miles and it is in great shape. I have only driven it about 15 miles so far, but I think this is a much better fit for what I was looking for. Thanks again to everyone for all your suggestions. It was a much better decision for me to pay a little more for a newer version than to get an older LS.
congrats on the new purchase..
but keep an eye on the Grom V line.. as assuredly the 14' Ls' tech will soon become outdated.. an that maybe the new solution. to old problems. (unfortunately theres no touchscreen so any interface will be sketchy (why i kept my 07) but at least it will keep your car current for a longer period of time) enjoy.. an let us know how u enjoy the car over time....

I have an 09 LS with 80k and the thing that keeps me from trading up other than the fact its paid for, is all the tech I want is on this car except for a couple of things. The bluetooth doesn't work on transferring music from my iphone except by wire connection but that does work. I also would like to have blind spot monitoring. Outside of those 2 things I don't see a major tech advantage to newer models. Maybe the nav is better but I use Waze anyway so the nav is not a concern.
Do keep in mind the sticky dash, arm panels, and glove door issues I think run thru the 2010 models. Others can explain that better.
Good luck making up your mind.
