Default Many thanks to Club Lexus

I am a certified car fanatic. I have had way too many cars. However, never a Lexus until tomorrow. Hopefully I will be picking up a 2009 Lexus LS 460. I want to thank you guys for all the great info on this forum. I have been a lurker for a few weeks. I have lurked the Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Infiniti forum before I have made purchases in the past. All full of vast knowledge on what to buy, what to watch for, and what to run from!! The one I have found has 74k miles. Brake actuator at 56k miles, Front control arms at 64k miles. It does not have air suspension. It does have Mark Levinson sound and most all service records where found on the Drive Lexus website. New tires & Brakes. All for $16,500!!
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE USEFUL INFO!!

Slight delay in the car pick up.......I noticed a little vibration after the brakes warmed up. Needs new rotors. They had the pads replaced about 8,000 miles ago but not the rotors. Lexus will replace for free. Didn't get quiet as much as I wanted on my trade but, out the door is $12,200. They only gave me $6500 for my Denali with170,000 miles. It's a 2008 that needs plenty!!
hopefully will pick up tomorrow.

Congrats. You'll have a great time getting all the info you need from the fine folks here at CL. I no longer have my LS, but I still like to visit now and again.
