Picked it up for one of those deals you cant refuse

Was filthy from top to bottom, its cleaning up quite well though

Interior is close to mint, exterior needs some work

Front bumper need respray, rear door has a few dings , need two rear tires

The rear package is really fun, recliner, dvd, massage , really cool

 

Congrats, *****, and a great find! Do you mind sharing the year and price? That recliner with leg rest is killer and so tempting if we didn't regularly travel with five in the car.

 

 

Nice, rear seat package, dark grey. What was the deal? Why would someone let such a expensive rare car get so dirty and messed up on the outside?

 

How's the service history? Struts? Transmission?

Overall miles?

Rare to see that rear seat package but the interior looks near mint.

 

Congrats! Are you keeping them both?

 

Thanks man, and yea I forgot to mention all the basics , its an 07 with just about 95 000 miles (150 000+ kms)

I was wondering the same thing but to be honest some people simply don't know how to care for a car , they may take it to a spray wash a few times a year and that's it .

The paint was horrible with filth and you can tell hasn't been detailed in years, apparently it was used just as a family commute vehicle and I guess he just grown bored of it after owning it for 5-6 years and was ready to let it go.

Yea exterior was rough but interior is as close too mint as you can find that's one of the reasons I got it.

Not sure about in the states but here in Canada you may only see 1 or 2 a year pop up nation wide , maybe even less then that as sometimes you simply don't see them on the market for long periods of time.

Not sure about the service history, just like my other 460L I purchased it pretty much blind.

But he told me hes had it serviced at a lexus dealer about 20 minutes away and he said I can go there with my vin# and they can print out all the history, so I may do that soon.

Thanks man, to be honest im falling in love with this one pretty hard.

It feels different somehow to my 08 and the extras add a lot to the ambiance of the whole experience.

But one of them should probably go as I have no reason to keep both.

 

Congrats on the car, it looks awesome! Just an FYI, if you make an account on the Lexus Drivers manufacturer site, you can put in your VIN and it will give you all of the service history for the car (at least stuff that was done at a Lexus Dealer). When I added mine it was even more comprehensive than the Carfax that I saw when I was purchasing mine.

 

The extras definitely make a difference!

 

Congrats! I have the rear seat package in my 2010 LS600hL, and while no one really needs that much ridiculous luxury, it still makes me smile! Enjoy!

 

The fact that nobody needs it is why its so cool!

 

(Sorry guys ive been trying to upload photos of the paint correction for 2 days and the site wont let me , The new format is ridiculously bad)

I started the paint correction and its going very well so far

I did a very thorough 6 step correction to the front hood, the front fenders and the rear quarter panels leading up to the roof line

Step 1 - Wash and claybar
Step 2 - Wet sand with 2000 grit
Step 3 - Heavy cut pad and meguirs 105 heavy cut compound
Step 4 - Heavy cut pad with Griots step 1 heavy cut
Step 5 - Medium pad with Griots step 2
Step 6 - Medium pad with Griots step 3
Step 7 - Finishing pad with Griots step 4

Even the wifey got into it , she didn't like this one at first because she doesn't like the tan interior but now shes telling me to sell the other one and keep this one.

 

Tell her your interior is grey, not tan
